I use stiff plastic sleeves for everything, you can easily fit 2 cards per sleeve into them (I've gone up to 4 at times). For a "playset" (four of the same card) I use two of the hard sleeves, tape them together and mail them in a bubble mailer. For more cards I use small hard shell cases. They hold up to about 15 cards, you can buy all sorts of sizes. For the expensive ones (over $100) I use a slab case for ultimate protection. Never had a card damaged in transit.Zenfinite

I avoided the the "collector" hassle by just describing my cards as player grade. Many were mint and never used but plenty had seen some use. It just was not worth the hassle to grade every single card. That said, i included pics of actual cards. I was surprised to see how well they sold when compared to the so-called collector grade cards.
