Over doing it is my goal, anything less increases the chances of damage. Sometimes even "over doing it" still results in problems. At least you can say that you did everything you can to avoid damage. I second that emotion! Never been upset with a seller for making triple-sure a cool old book was protected. paulbh1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I alternate them front to back, wrap them all in a plastic sheet (basic cheapo 2 mil you can get at Home Depot/Lowes) and tape it shut with paint tape. Then I tape that to one of the pieces of cardboard. Put on the top piece of cardboard and tape those two together. Sometimes I'll stuff paper/etc around the edges of the 2 cardboard pieces (ie take up the empty space from the inch or so overhang formed by the 2 cardboard pieces)for extra protection Bart Allen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peasty Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It’s my first time to submit more than 10 books. If your submitting more than 10 books in one order and you have the interior boxes from CGC that holds 10 comics, do you put another copy of the packing list in the next interior box? Asking so I won’t have any delays in my submission order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
