I have loose boosters left over from draft that I want to throw up on eBay. I was wondering how folks have shipped boosters. I don't want to pay/charge the $13 or whatever for a flat rate box. Do folks normally just stuff them in a big envelope and pay by weight?
Thoughts/suggestions welcome. Want the cheapest option to ship in the United States.
Thanks!

Depending on how many, a small flatrate is probably your best bet.
If its only a few, yeah just toss em in a bigger envelope and pay by weight. I'd use a padded one personally.
95% chance the flatrate is better.

Is the 5.80 flat rate as small as it gets? Guess that will have to do. $6 in shipping isn't unreasonable to pay for 20+ boosters, right?
If you use PayPal's ship now shipping (or print the shipping label straight from eBay), it'll cost you $5.15, AND includes tracking.

I'm a bit new to using eBay for anything bigger than a hard case and 2 cards. Is that for the flat rate box itself? So I just pick up the box, pay online, print/tape, and send?

Essentially, yeah - pick up the boxes you need at the post office (or I think you can order them and your mailperson will drop them off) for free, then when somebody's bought your auction, you click the print shipping label link or whatever it says next to the finished auction on your selling summary page - it'll take you through the rest of the process. I think you may have to agree to a few things the first time you do it, but it's been really handy for me. Only thing I wish is that I had an *actual* label printer rather than a normal one, so I wouldn't have to cut out and tape the label on myself every time.
(Also, make sure you don't cover the barcodes on the label with tape)
I hope that helps.

Extremely helpful, thank you.
