Paul,
I think we are just not going to agree on this one. I even send the cards out in a padded envelope. I don't like sending anything in a regular envelope. I've had a few bad experiences.
The idea of starting the bid higher sounds good, but it's that much more that ebay makes on commission. So far they haven't figured out how to get any money out of shipping fees.
Are you going to see you at the Chinook show? I think it's going to be a really great show.
Hope to see you.
Carol
