Hi all.
Am wondering if any of you sell wallpaper on Ebay, and if so which methods do you use to send it?
?Single postal tubes ?Can u get packaging for more than one roll
?Corrugated cardboard and bubblewrap
And which postal methods do you find most cost-effective?
Many thanks in advance for being able to pick your brains

More than 1 roll a longer tube or box them, just make sure they cannot move up and down in the package and break free at the ends.
I have ordered long items that came in a very solid tube, Doubt they are cheap though. 6" - 8" diameter with ends caps.
Most cost effective will depend on the final size and weight.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
The carpets shops usually have long tubes which may be useful. They are probably 5-6 inches in diameter.
You may be able to get 3 rolls of wallpaper inside (in a triangular pattern)
MyHermes probably will be the best courier, as I would imagine wallpaper is too wide to be sent as a 'small parcel' with Royal Mail0 -
I have sold a few lots of wallpaper and I wrapped them in cardboard, like a made to measure box, then wrapped with lots of brown tape and some more for luck. Posted via hermes and buyers have been happy.0

I have always wrapped the rolls with corrugated card and made my own parcel0
