Just sold a few cards on ebay. Can anyone help me determine how much one card in a card saver 1 weighs in a bubble mailer?
Next can anyone tell me how much one SGC graded card in a bubble mailer is?
I wanna use the ebay label thing but not sure. Tried one and put 7 ozs for a raw card which I think is too heavy.

Slabbed card is under 3 oz.
I tape cards in a top loader to 1/2 of a screw down, still under 3 oz.
Should only cost you $1.69
Larger cards (like t201's) from SGC are 4 or 5 oz.

One card in a card saver in a bubble mailer is a parcel and will cost you $2.07. You will get free tracking.
If you put it in a 6x8 photo mailer it is a nonmachinable letter and will cost you 86 cents. You cannot purchase tracking for this.
A slabbed card with a light piece of cardboard around the slab and mailed in a bubble mailer weighs 3.5 oz. It is a parcel and will cost you $2.24. You will get free tracking for this.
Pricing through ebay/PayPal will receive a slight discount but I have found that the discount is outweighed by the cost of ink and paper to print the label. I just purchase stamps at the post office and apply my own postage and drop it at the PO.
The rules changed in regard to what is considered a letter, a flat, and a parcel, a couple of years ago. The rules changed again in January to allow free tracking for all First Class and Priority parcels.
