All cards ship in a penny sleeve, top loader, and team bag. If you would like tracking, then you must select parcel not standard envelope. Please understand that if you choose to ship standard envelope tracking is not reliable and USPS does take longer than suggested for delivery. As long as the card is listed under $20 I will always default to the cheaper shipping option, but you can choose to select a different method if you would like tracking as well as having your card shipped in a padded envelope. I do my best to keep the card safe if standard envelope is selected but being that the envelope must go through USPS scanning machine there is always a chance it could get damaged. All listings are standard 3 day processing and shipping. If you purchase on a Friday or weekend, then the latest your card can be shipped is Wednesday. I try to get them out sooner, but this is not my full-time job.

And before anyone attacks me for saying the envelope must go through the USPS machine, please understand that USPS has been cracking down on this method of shipping. I have had many cards returned that where not machinable and needed at a minimum .42 cents extra postage and up to almost $5 more for postage. So, to alleviate this headache and the buyer initiating a claim for item not received I package all standard envelope shipping so they can go through the machine.
