Safe, consistent packing protects buyers and your seller rating. Follow the value-based rules below for ungraded singles, graded slabs, and sealed products.
Raw Singles β€ $50
Eligible for trackable letter shipping only if envelope stays machinable
Raw Singles > $50
Required: Bubble mailer or box + full tracking
Graded Slabs (any value)

Sealed Products
Box only; tight void fill; double-box for higher values
We support trackable letter labels via EasyPost for low-value raw singles that stay within machinable letter limits.
Up to 24 raw cards, or up to 2 cards in toploaders (max two toploaders total).
The safer, more robust option for all raw singles, especially higher value cards.
We set $50 as the maximum order value for letter shipments as a risk benchmark. For orders above this threshold, the additional protection of bubble mailers or boxes significantly reduces the risk of damage and disputes.
Graded slabs require extra care due to their rigid nature and high value. Always use boxes for maximum protection.
Bubble mailers alone do not provide sufficient protection for rigid graded slabs. The slab can crack or the case can break if subjected to pressure during shipping. Always use a box.
Handle gentlyβshrink-wrap and corners matter to collectors. Proper packaging preserves both value and condition.
While these guidelines are recommendations, inadequate packaging that results in damage may lead to refunds and negative seller ratings. Investing in proper packaging materials protects both your merchandise and your reputation.
Misprint is not responsible for lost or damaged items due to insufficient packaging. Shipping providers may refuse to cover claims for items not packaged sufficiently to withstand normal shipping conditions.
