Guide to Packaging
When trading or selling Vinylmation, Pops, Infinity items or anything else, its important to package them properly.
- Remember Postal Workers don’t respect parcels,
in the same way as you may do! - They are crushed, thrown, squeezed, crammed, jammed, squashed, pressed & more
- They are transported around the globe.
- Vinylmation can be damaged in many ways including Broken Ears, arms and Accessories. As well as chips, marks, smudges & more
- If two or more Vinylmation are placed next to each other, they will rub off the paint, causing damage.
- To stop rubbing, Place Every Single Vinylmation in small bags such as Sandwich/Zip Lock/Baggies to reduce rubbing damage. They are extremely cheap and can be purchased at most Supermarkets & Discount Stores such as Dollar Tree, Poundland, Walmart etc.
- Each figure/Box should also be wrapped individually in either Bubble Wrap or Plain Kitchen Roll. But not toilet roll as that is a bit disgusting. Also don’t use coloured kitchen roll with patterns as this can sometimes leave marks on the vinyls.
- If your sending Boxed/Tin Vinylmations, also wrap them in Bubble Wrap for extra protection
- If your sending just a few single Vinylmations, use a padded envelope.
- Also try to to use the correct sized envelope or box for what your selling or trade.
- Don’t Skimp on Packaging. You can use options like that skin board packaging.
- Buy materials in bulk – (its cheaper that way)
- If you can’t ship properly, don’t Trade or Sell
- Try to Recycle packaging and use again
- Failure to package properly will result in poor eBay & Community Feedback
