How do I ship out Jerseys?

TexAggie_2014 · 06-17-2014, 12:01 PM

I'm looking to sell some jerseys i had (Basketball, baseball, football)
But i've never actually shipped any jerseys out before...I'm also considering TTM-ing some as well but how do i come about it?

For eBay, do i need to purchase a box or something from the P.O or can I just do one from my house?

For TTM, How do i get a return back? just an envelope? Wouldn't that damage the jersey?

Any help and all help is appreciated, Thanks!

You can use a box from home

Get some poly mailers. They fit perfect

If it fits, I'd put them in one of those larger ziplock freezer bags to avoid any kind of dirt transfer while in the mail. Then, place it in the polymailer.

I don't think many of your read the question, or do not understand what ttm is.

I did this a few years back and did well with returns.

I would ship in a box and put a pre-stamped polymailer inside. The only problem I seem to have had, is players take longer for jerseys then say cards, and postage is adjusted (or can be now, by law) every year. I had two jerseys come back postage due.

Many of those polymailers are very strong, they wont pop open. As far as damage, there isn't anything to get damage, except for maybe jersey tags getting bent. Its cloth and can bent, stepped on or whatever inside the polys.

Also, maybe cause they were free autograph request, the players always torn off the tags. I guess to try to get me to not sell them.

Put the jersey on, get in your car and drive to the persons house. Remove the jersey, and hand it to the person.

That's how I do it.

Who said confused??? It should have never been a posted question... I should have expected it from an Aggie though... Moving on...

Thanks for all of your help.

I guess i wasn't too specific for people whenever I was writing the original post.
