I followed these instructions exactly and the painting arrived with no issues. The only thing I did different was while I used regular packing tape for most of the under layers, I used strapping tape on the outside to bind everything together. I surprised myself with how well I did and how well it looked. Now I've sold another $200 painting (21 x 28) and am back doing a refresher before I dive into it again. Thanks for helping me out!
It amazes me how channels that provide little to no actual value in the reselling niche get many times the views... I really appreciate all your videos. One of the more unique and information filled channels in this entire category of reselling.
Wyatt Losinski there are real differences on You Tube between celebrity and selling. Those channels you speak of fill a niche called interaction addressing loneliness, community, and shopping hauls. That audience would never be drawn to the Auction Professor. Another content channel you should check out is The Antique Nomad. Super content!
@@rickeydonald4756 yea... like I have no problem watching thrift hauls, but dont just show me Patagonia and Merrell shoes and tell me to look out for them in the wild in 82 straight videos. Everytime I watch this guys haul videos he shows items I've probably walked by a dozen times because it looks like it is worthless. My eyes open a little more everytime.
i also feel like a lot of those channels misconstrue how hard it is to be a reseller. they just tell people to watch their dumb vids for the info, but this business is hard
This should be a mandatory watch for all new and many seasoned resellers. You're absolutely right, if you don't want to spend the time and effort to pack properly, don't sell it. Thank you for this. I've sold many delicate items without any issues and consider myself an excellent packer but this video is extremely helpful. We can always learn so thank you. I've been on the receiving end of a couple of inadequate packing jobs and it's especially sad when a 100 year old item is damaged.
I like your comment "If you don't want to invest time into wrapping something like this - don't sell it." So true! Great video. I wrap my stuff like this too.
Military guy here. Wish I had this video years ago! I move frequently and you start getting upset when your shipping items arrive damaged. Using this video to wrap up my shadow box which is going in my checked baggage. Thanks sir!
Have you ever thought about using painters tape on the glass? The tape helps to absorb small shocks. Also, if the glass accidentally breaks it will hold it together, thus reducing risk of damaging the print.
I love packing up items! I also take pride in making it “look pretty” when it’s wrapped. My husband does eBay and I do the packaging/shipping. 90% of his feedback is praise for my packing job 😄 However, this morning I’ve been tasked with shipping a large valuable framed piece the buyer paid $999.99 for 😮 This video is helpful! Wish me luck!
Wow Don. I have approx 200 frames of all kinds. From a print to originals and I've not put 1 up for sale because of fear of dhipping. Thanks a million for this video. Cheers, Maurice
I really love that your packing material is what's available, no fluff, just basic, reliable materials. I see what you are using in this vid and its clean and acceptable. Do people ever complain about your upcycled packaging material?
Thank you so much for taking the time to help us. There's nothing worse than expensive artwork being damaged upon arrival! Also, I'm sure the customer will appreciate the extraordinary packaging no matter how long it takes to unpack, lol.
Thanks a Million for this. Sold my first large art work today. This info was a BIG HELP. Pick up a vintage Farmed print for $3.00, sold it today for $180. plus shipping. Thanks Don. Have a Warm evening.
Thanks so much for this video I’ve sold two pieces of $250 value art and was able to confidently pack and ship these items and the buyers commented on how much care was taken in wrapping….thanks to you Don!! I’m only 5months in to reselling on eBay. I come from an antique dealer Dad who introduced me to this.
I sell art all the time. I also bubble wrap the main picture part, use cardboard corners on each side and then bubble wrap the whole piece. Then in my art box I also use paper and filling. Never had a piece of art damaged or a glass frame broke! Good video for other ways to get the same result
I personally don't like using trash bags / grocery bags to pack items lol, i've found that honeycomb packing paper saves a lot of bubble wrap and seems to be just as safe, if not safer... i do like his packing method on the cardboard boxes, very creative and probably less expensive than buying a box that perfectly fits your specific framed art.
@@ThatMexicanMMADude Seems to me if you need to buy the cardboard boxes to cut up and the bubble wrap, & tape, this would cost at least $25 to do. Not too bad but I'd add it to shipping cost a packing and handling.
It's nice knowing I can always go back to your videos when looking for a "frame" of reference when I need a refresher... Sold a framed Wrigley Stadium architectural print this morning :) Cheers!
This is phenomenal. I make large, flat artwork, and I have spent HOURS researching different ways to safely pack my work. Your method provides so much protection. Thank you so very much for taking the time to share your expertise!
Your video on making boxes for posters was absolutely wonderful, it’s my ne technique! This video is packing an item with what looks like garbage is not professional. The Saran for protection is the good advice in this video.
I wrap everything like I want it delivered to me point blank and simple. Never had any complaints at my store since I have been around (2007) You have provided great info and we appreciate everything you do!
I GREATLY appreciate you taking the time to film this video. I've wanted to get into art for awhile (the money is definitely there!) but have been hesitant to ship it because it's intimidating. I hope to get to a point in my reselling career where I can feel comfortable picking up anything because I know I can ship it and your videos help immensely! Thank you!
I have bought a LOT of art online. Almost all shippers make a large X with maskng tape across the glass front and also use foam blocks at corners. Nice tutorial your way tho
Thank you sooo Much!! I have three 1930s Utagawa Hiroshige prints that I sold on ebay. Not for an obscene amount, but it is profit. I just needed to find out the best way to ship them. Two are going to the same person. So I will probably tape two of those together. Thank you sooooo much Professor !!
What you do on UA-cam is always so helpful! I’ve shipped art similarly but to see the process start to finish makes it almost a brainless task! The air gap is a great tip!
Good packaging for sure but I chuckled when I thought of an unboxing video somewhere on UA-cam showing how to unwrap a well packed piece of art. 😉 Want to look back through your videos and find one that helps to source and identify fine old prints like the one you showed in this vid. Thanks, Don
I always worry about the glass breaking and wonder about the taping of the glass for protection. The plastic bags for cushion is a good method I plan to use. I have a 30x40 matted poster of Marilyn Monroe. Now I know how to ship her. The packaging may look like “over kill” but I totally agree with the extra boxing, especially the expense of the item. You are definitely a “professional”. Thank you again. - Doris
I just sold a large framed print, of course came to your channel to see how to ship it! I had watched previously, seriously thank you for your content!
Good stuff, another spot on video. A trick I learned is to put some masking tape on glass an X or lines, it takes the shock out of the glass breaking , and I use Kirkland Signature Stretch-Tite Plastic Food Wrap, 12 in x 3,000 ft, great deal.
@TheAuctionProfessor Thanks for this Don. I have had this video in my save folder and because of it, I recently started purchasing some framed prints. I just sold a framed Philadelphia Museum of Art Medical Print from the 1980's for $110+shipping, I paid $11. Rewatching this video as I prepare to box using this method and ship. Thanks for being such a great resource for the community!
This was great and confirmed how I feel about this stuff. I want to get into things like this and didn't know if I was overthinking shipping them. Thank you this was exactly what I had in mind to keep things protected and how to do it!
This is my first week of having your videos show up on UA-cam. I can't say hello St how impressed l am with them All! I Always press the Like button and l look forward to Learning more from you! Your packing technique is what l would expect, if l had bought a nice, fragile, antique from you. You are so down to earth, and so very knowledgeable. I'm really glad to have your videos. I especially like the way ones that talk about having postcards made from your own artwork. Thank you so much for taking the time to produce these videos, they truly are very informative and very helpful! Your friend in Kansas City, Tom. 🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃
Just want to say thanks Don, this video helped me pack a large glass stained glass piece. Liked the knife trick to scoring the cardboard to make it into a frankenbox. You are the BEST! :-)
That looks great! I’m not very strong to move things, or cut & bend cardboard like that lately. It’s a little less tedious for me, if I bubble wrap the heck out of it, sandwich between two large cardboard & float in a bigger box. Of course I end up with a huge box, and higher shipping, but it works for me, and if it’s a nice piece, the buyer doesn’t mind the shipping cost. I agree, It does take a lot of thought, time & effort. I’ve been passing up art unless it’s going to be over $100. I’ve shipped some awesome Victorian artwork in the past. I love old artwork, I wish it wasn’t so dang hard to package.
Thank you for making this video. Although I've been selling since 2003, I learned something from this. I usually stay clear of art. Maybe I will dabble into art a bit. Thanks again!
Thanks for the videos I'm always sending these to my friends in the game or suggest them to resellers I come across in the wild. Your advice is top notch so I'm going to share this with you hoping to give back. Shipping art for us takes roughly around 7 minutes. We always buy all the pool noodles we come across on sale at the end of summer for art (or just buy them from a dollar store if needed.). So our shop does Bubble wrap, shrink wrap, cut the pool noodles to the angles of the frame. cut them down the middle slide them on to the frame. (all of this with scissors) tape them across to secure, another wrap in shrink wrap. since were always looking for art we order flat screen tv shipping boxes. Thanks so much for the content.
Thanks Buddy! Grateful.for this video I just sold my first art piece on ebay myself and this was extermily helpful. I have confidence it will get from Canada to California safely
Thank you so much for a great informative video, the best part is that you showed step by step from beginning to end, most videos skip so much. New subscriber here. :)
Don, fantastic info and how-to, a great standard with respect to how much sellers should respect our buyers with the care of items bought. This kind of educational video protects not only the item sold, but also the integrity of our businesses as well. Thank you!
Very helpful! Just sold a beautiful embroidered piece of artwork in a glass frame on eBay and am terrified to ship it - this will definitely help it make its way to the new owner safely. Thank you for taking the time to make this.
THANK YOU so much! I was going to cancel my sale, but because of you, I’m going to follow through and learn how to do this! I just could see it arriving broken, but with those layers around it, how? UPS quoted me $45 plus shipping. Not!
I have a much better way to ship large picture frames for me anyways,, I use the foam pool noodles I cut it in half long ways and fit it along the frame. Works perfectly.
We don't use that method as it only really protects the edges and not the face or glass of the items. And if the package was dropped it can still do damage even with the noodles. The edges are only a partial concern since the glass itself isn't protected by the noodles.
Yes that is true as well. Size is key since if you go over a certain size you will either pay more, or it would be too large to ship via the Post Office. This one I show is just under the limit, but if I wrapped it in even a slightly bigger carton it would have been too large also.
@@TheAuctionProfessor It has been my experience that FedX Home Delivery is always way cheaper than USPS when it comes to large packages. Not sure if the size restrictions are similar though. Love your channel and ALWAYS learn something.
Thanks for posting this. I found it a little difficult to follow since we couldn't see all the times you flipped the item, and some of the box was out of view. It took me probably three hours to box up my first item like this! Hopefully it will arrive at its destination undamaged. :-) Thanks again.
I am getting ready to ship a large print that's worth $400 and was worried about how I was going to ship it. I always approach this as how I would like my own items to be protected and want to do a good job for my buyer(s). Great video and I've got it saved for when it actually sells and I package it up.

Wasn't disappointed.
Best wrapping demonstration I have experience online.
Thank you for your selflessness 🎈
One of the, if not the best, how to video on shipping framed art with glass. Thank you, Don!
THANK YOU for providing this superb content. You really are one of the most educational You Tubers out there. You are appreciated.
Seeing you use those plastic bags for shipping cushions alone was worth the time it took to watch! Thanks!

Excellent job wrapping that piece! Far better to wrap an item well than to get a broken return!
Thank you for these shipping how-to videos
I am impressed! Beautiful wrapping. Awesome attitude. And look at all the cardboard you have recycled.
Thank you so very much. Great information.
Thank you! You save a lot of time and costly errors!

Isn't the masking tape a pain to get off the glass for the buyer?
Nice video Don on a challenging subject for many.
Thanks Dom!
Very helpful. Thanks
Don, you're poetry in motion!
Thoughtful technique - you're a born teacher! I'll be using this week to send my first framed sale. Thank you!

Thanks was stressing about finding the right shaped box, this is genius
thank you, great tutorial
Wow great,thank you!
That looks great! I’m not very strong to move things, or cut & bend cardboard like that lately. It’s a little less tedious for me, if I bubble wrap the heck out of it, sandwich between two large cardboard & float in a bigger box.
