1. Board bag
2. Bubble wrap
3. Place in box with filler to eliminate movement during transit.
4. Ship promptly and provide tracking number
Save the box and materials you get after receiving a deck and reuse/recycle them later.
This particular box was popsicle width until I modified it.
Send photos of the packaging and post office receipt to buyer to provide peace of mind and proof of shipment.
Package the goods as if it's a deck you're going to receive, don't slack on the wrap job, take pride in your work.
Take care friends & Happy Collecting!

If I stopped at stage 3, but drew some cool art on the package, would be be equally effective? |

Don't forget to throw in some extra goodies between steps 3 and 4. |

This should be a 'sticky' in the 'For Sale' section. |

Well Done Chip. Good to see that at least you give a damn on the buyer receiving their new purchase in great shape. Nothing worse than shelling out cash for a deck and having destroyed in transit. Some of the nightmare packaging jobs I've seen would make most people cringe. Great tips! |

Step 3: cut a hole in the box
step 4: put your dick through the hole in the box.

That's not what he meant about putting "extra goodies" in the box. |
