I have most of a case of Pregis pad-kraft 100% size # 0 paper mailers (approx. 6" x 9" OSD, 5.5" x 8.5" ISD.  I use to 
sell a lot of cards on eBay, after trying multiple brands and types, these are what I decided were best.  100% paper is more rigid than regular bubble mailers and seemed to offer more protection.  I paid $0.35 each for these after tax,  I'm asking for $0.25 each, or $0.35 in trade.  I'm negotiable if you want a bunch.  At the time of posting, I have 100+. I live near SDSU.  Hit me up if you're interested.

I also have #6 (10" x 15.5") self sealing bubble out bag.  Basically a bubble wrap pouch with self sealing end strip, not covered in paper.  I paid almost $0.38 each for these.  $0.25 each, or $0.35 in trade.  Have 80-90 left.   I was using them to protect stacks of legal documents, mailing shoes, as well as protection when mailing multiple items together.

H: MH1 Canopy Lands W: KTK Polluted Deltas

Need two more KTK Deltas.  The MH1 stuff in my trade list is up to date, the other stuff, not so much.  But feel free to inquire.

Have 4x Beast Whisperer Foil Promo's (Walmart Exclusive I believe)  Just want to check out trade lists.  My trade list and want list are highly out of date.  Trying to get back into modern (maybe legacy) after taking a break.

Have an unplayed Expedition Hallowed Fountain, wanting to trade it toward an unplayed expedition fetch.  If you're interested, hit me up.  I have more to offer than just my trade list, and can usually find things locally in my play group.

You have no wishlist at all.  Makes it kinda hard to figure what you might be looking for.

"Just so you know, you can look at recent completed sales on eBay and they are averaging about $17.  There have only been 16 completed sales out of 117 since November 1 that have been 19.99 or greater and half of those have included dice, fat pack box, etc."

Thanks, I've run an eBay side business for almost 10 years.  I'm quite aware of how it works.

You magically not including shipping or something?  Cause they don't ship for free.  You need to take the entire cost into account.  Last 15 sales, buy it now including shipping and throwing out ones with dice or accepted offers since I can't see the price: 

21.98
17.50
19
19
24.95

23.53
19.99
20.99
19.79

17.94

Average $19.51  Hope that helps.

"I'd be interested in them for closer to what they actually sell for ~15-17 on eBay."

That's not what they actually sell for.  Sure there may be a few people wanting to move them fast, but that's by no means the going price.  If that's the case I'd be trading against low TCG price.  See how that works?  So yeah, I'm not interested in trading for what the absolutely lowest price that's been sold on eBay.  The average selling price in the last few weeks has been in $20 range.  I know because this I sell them on eBay too.  So an extra $5 for trade seems perfectly reasonable.

Still have a few sealed lands packs (80 lands) from Battle for Zendikar Fat packs.  Looking for $25 in trade.  Really trying to complete my sets of shocks and fetches, but I'm willing to look at lists

senting a trade

"I had to go down to the post office to pick up an envelope that just had one Narset in it and pay .22 cents. That's been the only time out of numerous cards being sent to have happened but was annoying enough that I don't want to have someone else deal with it. I can spare .22 cents. What made that even better was that I had paid the guy 2 dollars for postage."

I can say it was pretty fricking annoying to have to goto the post office to pick up one of my last trades over $0.22.  Thankfully, I live less than 5 minutes away.  Not so thankfully it's the main post office that services SDSU and it took over 40 minutes in line.  I sure people have gotten negatives for less.

People seem to get confused about over one ounce additional postage, and nonmachinable additional postage.

Nonmachinable Criteria
A letter-size piece is nonmachinable if it has one or more of the following characteristics (see 601.1.1.2 to determine the length, height, top, and bottom of a mailpiece):

a. Has an aspect ratio (length divided by height) of less than 1.3 or more than 2.5.
b. Is polybagged, polywrapped, enclosed in any plastic material, or has an exterior surface made of a material that is not paper. Windows in envelopes made of paper do not make mailpieces nonmachinable. Attachments allowable under applicable eligibility standards do not make mailpieces nonmachinable.
c. Has clasps, strings, buttons, or similar closure devices.
d. Contains items such as pens, pencils, keys, or coins that cause the thickness of the mailpiece to be uneven; or loose keys or coins or similar objects not affixed to the contents within the mailpiece. Loose items may cause a letter to be nonmailable when mailed in paper envelopes; (see 601.3.3).
e. Is too rigid (does not bend easily when subjected to a transport belt tension of 40 pounds around an 11-inch diameter turn).

f. For pieces more than 4-1/4 inches high or 6 inches long, the thickness is less than 0.009 inch.
g. Has a delivery address parallel to the shorter dimension of the mailpiece.
h. Is a self-mailer that is not prepared according to 201.3.14.
i. Is a booklet that is not prepared according to 201.3.16.

The bold areas are the reasons I was given by my Post Office's manager as to why the additional $0.22 is required on ALL envelopes containing an item such as a top loader.  Even if you don't write "non-machinable" on the envelope, it's still required.  He was honest and said that rarely they get caught, but around the holidays they catch it a lot more often because of all the greeting cards that require additional postage.  Basically, from what he was saying, we take a chance every time we mail without the additional non-machinable postage and don't label the envelope as non-machinable.

I'm just wondering how many people here actually pay the extra $0.22 for non-machinable charge when using plain white envelope and top loaders?  I've gotten two envelopes recently that came postage due.  Maybe I'm just not lucky.

I thought he said $10 joking.  Sealed, they sell for $20-$25 all day on eBay.  I've been trading the single lands locally for $0.50 each without any problem.  $10 is an insult lol

^ This.

Unless it's a special signature you can't get anymore, or from some other famous person.  If anything, signatures make the cards worth less.

Looking for a Replenish, unfortunately my tradelist is pretty dated.  If you have one for trade hit me up.  Maybe I have something from your wishlist that's not on my tradelist.

How is it harassing when we make an offer?  Everyone's entitled to their opinion.  He doesn't have to accept our offer.

Can I give you $0 for all your cards?  In 100 years that's probably what they'll be worth.  What ever happened to the actually current value of cards?
