this is some serious advice for anyone selling or trading. DO NOT use regular envelopes for shipping!!!! regular envelopes go through machines called sorters. they sort the mail and run them through rollers that can either damage or literally rip the items out of the envelope. remember the items you are sending belong to the person you are sending them to. it is your responsibility to make sure it gets to them intact. a padded envelope does not cost that much, so please think of the other party when you send something. this has happened to me more than once, and it is very upsetting to both parties. so please take the time and care to send it the way you would like to receive it. envelopes are just little peices of paper. there's no protection. and we all know how carefull the mail service is.
