Packaging:
Absolutely no sending in white envelopes under any circumstances. The minimum amount of protection when sending all cards is as follows:
a) Each card to be in a penny sleeve, always.
b) Cards are to be placed in appropriately thick top loaders, secured by tape at the top.
c) Cards to be sent in a bubble mailer.
In the event of sending a large number of cards, where individually placing each card in a top loader is not practical, the cards should be well protected between cardboard/top loaders and posted in a box or bubble mailer.
Postage methods that are NOT approved :
a) Cards in a white envelope, regardless of individual card protection - sending in white envelopes is not to happen and will result in a negative being left for you.
b) Cards sent in a penny sleeves or team bags without any other protection.
c) Careless packing methods, such as sending cards in top loaders without tape/team bag to prevent the card slipping out and being damaged.
d) Cards shipped in snap-tight cases with rounded corners.
e) Any other way you can think of that will cause a card to be damaged.
Other sites do not have rules for these sorts of things, and we have seen far too many cards damaged from poor packing. The white envelopes in particular are a no no - we have it from an Aussie Post employee that these white envelopes go through an automated sorting machine, which explains some of the damage we have seen to cards/top loaders sent in plain envelopes. Bubble mailers do not go through this process, so the chances of damage are far less likely.
The rules are there, but at the end of the day you need to be able to protect yourself. Whether it be by using PayPal to be able to claim back in the event of non receipt or some other problem.
If there are two low feedback members, then it is really up to the individuals to decide. As the rules state

At the end of the day, if you aren't comfortable doing the deal then just say no. Don't feel like you have to do it.
Thats very wierd...
well when i was buying Ryan captain signature redemption form Ricko he kept on putting the price up because he said 2phat2b1 keeps on offering him more for it.
I'm getting Andrew Ryan you?
This guy is ringing alarm bells with a few people - I have had a couple of PM's already about him. I would highly recommend that you DO NOT deal with him.
The old saying "if it seems too good to be true" is probably accurate. He has no eBay history but has many Captains signatures at "too" cheap prices. It really does seem like a scam.

Its a hard decision
if he is a scam i lost alot of $$$
if he is not a scam i'v made lots of $$$
and that ricko guy in a thread said is Lockyer captain signature worth $50 and i was talking to 2phat2b1 and he has a very good list of knowledge about NRL cards
Exactly what scammers play on. The chances people play in the "what if" of making lots of money. I'm sorry mate but I really don't like the chances of you seeing your card. If I were you i'd cancel the transaction with PayPal now or at least lodge a claim. That way the funds are frozen - if the card shows up then you close the claim and he gets his money.
The guy is banned from this site now so will not continue his shoddy practices here at least.
