Card Weight help?
I have a quick question for anyone willing to reply.
How many ounces does a normal baseball card in a toploader weigh?
I think about 6 ounces but want to know exact from someone who may have a scale. The card is a basic 2011 topps.
Thanks Guys

A lot less, I mail out a few card, in toploaders, in a padded envelope, with a trade receipt printed out and that does not often come to over 3oz
.3 oz to be exact
Finder's Fee for these cards if I obtain them(NO EBAY or COMC).

From my digital scale.
Padded envelope + card in sleeve and top loader and paper info = 1 oz or less.
2-4 cards like that 2-3 oz.
With the Paypal shipping, it really does not matter from 1-4 oz, same cost.
6 oz is way too much to pay..
6 oz is a lot of cards.
When in doubt, get a scale..especially if you are selling bulk..no need to overpay weight of shipping..

I mail card in penny, top loader and team bag with thick card holder attach to make it rigid and it's never more than 2 ounces for single cards.
Like he said earlier, 1 oz. to 4 oz. is the same amount anyway.

50% of the time when I trade/sell cards the package is 2 oz, the rest lower/higher with the highest I've had be 4 oz. A 6 ounce card would be huge
