Sending books TTM

Unread post by renef09 »

Is there a thread about any instructions for sending books to be signed? Can you tell me a few tips? Is it better to send envelopes or boxes? Thank you!

Hey, suppose it depends on your postage costs etc... I find jiffy bags normally work for hardbacks, as they are solid enough to maintain envelope shape. No need to send the dust jacket, so that won't get damaged, it's just the book itself. Thinner paperbacks... cardback envelopes do the job nicely, but always make sure you tape the envelope on the front to reinforce where the edges of the book is.
Things not to do, forget your autosaved password for a forum. Woops.

Hi! Thanks a bunch! Yeah, actually it's a paperback but it's thick actually. Thanks again!

No worries, if it's paperback, you may want to pop a bit of card either side of it to prevent the cover from getting damaged on the corners, or wrap the book inside the jiffy envelope. Good luck with your request, happy to help.
