I have to what?

So, as I've shared, I got the Charmed complete series set for Christmas (not that I worship its very assistance in my room, no, not at all)

so, being sensible, I went about selling off my old individual season sets

Amazon, wonderful as they are, only offered about $2-$3 per season..... bastards

So, since I already have an Ebay buying account, I figured lets look into a sellers account. or adding selling, whatever.

The first time I looked into it, I was greeted with a wall of OMFG you want me to what? after that shock wore off I went back, and clicked a whole different link, and poof, easy as pie.

so, now they've sold, and I have to mail them out....

and it's not that I don't get that this would come, it's more of a "do I hafta" feeling I have.

there's also the whole should I go buy envelopes and try to send them media mail, or should I fork over the extra cash for the flat rate envelope....

bah, gotta wait for payment till I can ship em anyway.

I usually try not to spend any extra money on packaging if I can afford it-- I save old bubble mailers and reuse them. If I'm sending something media mail, I'll just wrap the book in brown paper using the reverse side of a grocery bag.

I do that too, but all my old packing things that I could reuse are all either too small or too huge, unfortunately. I'd do the brown wrap thing, except that these are DVDs, and I want a bit more protection on them than that.
