It happens even if you put the carboard in the return envelope?

I never use to but when I wrote to someone and included a photo and after I received it completely bent, I was extremely annoyed. So I do now, but it increases postage for me because the cardboard I use is quite thick :roll:

I've heard stories that even if you do write do not bend on it .They'll still bend it. With big pictures I always include a cardboard. It doesn't really make it heavier. Just don't use a thick cardboard.

I don't because it makes the package heavier and that means more postage. It's a good idea if you want to splurge a little. I have received a autograph back before bent.

Hi VaNeSsA hUdGeNs #1 fAn :D

Sending cardboard is optional - it will help keep your photos from getting bent. I don't send cardboard with my photos, mainly because I send smaller photos.

I would recommend sending cardboard if you send larger photos, but if not make sure to write something like "Please do not bend" on your envelopes. Just whatever you do, don't be upset if there are some sort of creases in your photos though :|

I think it also depends on the size of the photos. My photos are not that big so they never get bent.

Hi VaNeSsA hUdGeNs #1 fAn,

Including cardboard in your envelopes is optional but some people use it to prevent the autographs from bent by the people handling the envelopes.

I don't use cardboard in my envelops, I write Do Not Bend on my envelopes.

Some celebrities use cardboard to prevent the autographs from bending, I've had a few envelopes come TTM in which the celebrity used cardboard to prevent the autograph from being bent.

Don't need too..I do it sometimes depending who I'm sending a request too. At least I know the post Office or the mailman won't bend it. Because they do it sometimes. Just make sure you write on the envelope Not to bend and that there's a picture inside.

No, you don't have to include cardboard. I never have.
