I am so worried about the lenticular poster I sent. I really hope by some miracle it gets there in good order. The lady at the counter made me believe all was good and that it was going to arrive safely. I wish she would have told me the truth so I could have gone home, repackaged the poster correctly according to what I just learned here so it wouldn't get ruined, but nope...she lead me into thinking I did a good job.
I had never sent one of these before so I took a total shot in the dark at how I could package it. I did the best I could, but I guess I messed up. I feel really bad. I wish I could turn back the clock and repackage that poster correctly. It was a lovely poster and I hate to think that it will probably get damaged.
For those who are considering buying posters from me, don't worry - I know how to correctly package regular posters so that they do not get damaged. I never had a problem when sending regular movie posters. This is how I package regular movie posters: I roll the poster, then I place it in a plastic sleeve, then I take a study poster tube, place either paper towels or bubble wrap on both ends of the tube so that the poster's edges do not get damaged. I then tape both ends of the tube thoroughly and address the tube and off it goes.
However, if I do sell my Slumdog Millionaire foam poster I will need some ideas on how to package that so that it arrives safely. Thanks
