Tag Team Quads 93/94
Because I missed the boat on the epic 7 page about whether to leave a neg or not thread I just wanted to add my 2 cents in a calm way.
My only beef with sending between cardboard and not in a {bubble} envelope is a) that it's against the clear site rules but b) (and most importantly to me) bubble mailers have extra protection against things like RAIN.
That's something quite important to keep in mind (especially since our summer has not been much of a summer at all...).
Rules are put in place for good reason.
I understand that cards can be protected in all sorts of ways, and most people genuinely try hard to protect them, but you have to consider all possibilities, and if there are rules in place those possibilities have probably already been considered.
Mods please don't consider this thread as trying to start anything, I just want people to understand that everything needs to be considered when packaging properly.
Ideally, the cards should be in protective holders (such as toploaders), inside a team bag (if possible, just for extra protection against movement and weather), possibly between cardboard and inside a bubble mailer. I can't see much happening to them when they are that well protected.
Have a good one everybody.
