Any special way to mail giftcards?

[alfa147x]

Just sold my first item on ebay ($25 iTunes giftcard) how should I mail it? Should I just go into the post office and say I want to mail this card how do I do it? I used the PayPal calculator, is it really going to cost $6?


Thanks for any assistance,

Dude, seriously? Just put it in an envelope and drop it off in the drop-off boxes.

Or, just ask if you can email the number to them.

I'd tape it to a piece of cardboard and mail in an envelope. Do something to obscure the fact you're mailing a credit/gift card

Tried that but it's a gift

Stick it in an envelope and put a stamp on it?

If you want tracking info, then use a padded envelope and pay accordingly...
Might be cheaper to just do a flat rate priority mailer though.

Do I need to worry about delivery confirmation?

Good idea!

If you're that worried, just go to the post office:

certificate of mailing 1.15
delivery confirmation .80-.90
signature confirmation 2.35

last two need to be a parcel (non-machinable) so 3/4'' or thicker but can still be shipped via first-class

This reminds me, I think I have an iTunes gift card that I don't want somewhere, I should sell that.
