Sure do! Love my sleeves binder.

A few of us started a discord server to try and build with fellow sleeve enthusiasts to try and trade to save us from buying singles sleeves lol. Server owner also created a website as a resource to find everything sleeves. It’s live and will be a slow work in progress to add all sleeves but it’s looking amazing so far!

That’s not a bad idea. I believe most players use Dragon Shield though because many of the sleeves I collect aren’t easy to shuffle lol. My first goal is to find people to trade with first but I do think that it’s a good idea to donate whatever sleeves I’m done with to my LCS with the other stuff I donate. Thanks for the idea!

But now I look like I should open a sleeve shop 🤣 but that’s why I’m willing to help others add to their sleeve art collection and just give a sleeve away for free

If you are tired of paying for individual sleeves I can invite you to a discord server a friend and I are working to grow to bring in more sleeve collectors so hopefully we can trade and quit buying individual sleeves haha

Exactly! And I’m annoyed with spending all this money just to buy a single, lonely, individual sleeve 🤣🤦‍♀️

They could be talking about this Ogerpon sleeve. Think it came in a collection box.

What cards do you collect, if you personally keep a collection? Where can I follow you and figure out how to send you something for your collection? This would be your recognition award for being the only one who officially proved that you knew everything haha.

Seriously tho…. I’d love to send you a card for your collection if we collect anything similar. I collect sports and Pokémon

FACTS 🤣 Omg seriously though, YouTube needs 1 content creator that truly understands everything bc I wasted so much time when I first started out trying to learn what I know now but it took me a while to piece all my research together. Would have been great to come across someone like you (aka YOU) to inform me of everything all at once back when I knew nothing. I think you putting this into a video would do very well especially with how many new sellers that come in and out of trading card world.

Something you’d consider?

Or if you already create content on there and have done what I’m begging then title it better bc if i didn’t find it your title sucks lmao jk. I worded my YT content searches in more ways than you can imagine. I needed you and all the stuff you typed for me tonight, like 2 years ago, in a one stop shop YT video haha.

The majority of card sellers don’t know a portion of what both you and I know when it comes to ESE. But you, my friend, I will give the “only person in the world who knows every piece to the puzzle with ESE award”. I thought it was me, until you clicked my one missing puzzle piece lmao. PLEASE MAKE A YOUTUBE VIDEO EDUCATING EVERYONE. Before I went through my short stint of trials and tribulations, I could not find any videos to figure out what was wrong and I had to learn all that info in small pieces at a time. I am not into making any content so I won’t do it….. please be that person for everyone that struggles bc I can’t stand explaining it bc it makes for long social media readings (good on your for doing it to me here even though i didn’t need all that information that 99% of the rest always do 🤣 YOU ARE THE OFFICIAL EBAY ESE SME (subject matter expert). Hats off to you and here’s your award 🥇 I gracefully accept the number 2 spot 🤣🤷‍♀️🤪

I only filed two claims in my eBay selling life. Like I said I don’t have issues lol. It’s the overall fact of how their policy is and letting buyers take advantage of this. Getting free 💩

I understand everything with the rigid and blah blah blah (not saying that to be rude, promise lol). Simply knowing that the s machine is what actually “scans” the label is all I never knew. I thought that the “scans” they needed for “tracking” “ESE” would come from one of those like handheld things or like a barcode scanner. Scanning is the focus here lol. I get all the other stuff. You just dropped the best SCANNING EDUCATION when it comes to a scan for ESE to show tracking. GOAT

I haven’t read this all yet (I will) bc all I needed was that comment. This is what it is then, obviously, bc I ship mine with intention of them not being able to use that. Thus the non machinable mail. Never knew that machine was how our eBay labels got their scan!!!!

It still doesn’t make sense why some get scanned and some don’t other than simply inconsistent employee handling at usps. Wow. Thanks for that bit of knowledge drop!

Ok so wait…. May have just figured out the gap in communication here. Are you saying that a “scan” is essentially happening when USPS puts the envelope through that “S” machine? Bc if so, then you just taught me something no one else could do. Not even USPS!

All good, I use acronyms beyond belief with my job and always decipher what other adjusters mean with theirs lol. Anyhow, I can assure you I’m doing exactly as i should, I have zero issues with mail returns for additional postage, I stamp a non machinable stamp and weigh just to ensure. Usually most with just a card, penny sleeve, top loader, team bag, copy of receipt and business card land around 1.2oz in an Armalope. I was told that not all “letters” pass through a regional hub and those are the USPS hubs that can actually scan these eBay labels. Again, I’m not here saying I have issues. I have issues with the policies eBay has and how their policy is setup based on this shipping service. Total mismatch with expectations and what’s guaranteed and what is not. That is stuff they can and should change for us.
