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!
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?
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.
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.
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 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.
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!
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!
What you do on TH-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!
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!
Absolutely brilliant video thank you. Have to post my first picture tomorrow and this has helped enormously! Already make boxes for books etc, but this is very helpful.
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!
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!
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.
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!
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.
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
@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!
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.
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
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 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 !!
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!
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.
Good packaging for sure but I chuckled when I thought of an unboxing video somewhere on TH-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
Interesting to see the process. I've never had to pack picture frames (I hope to do so), yet had sent out other things that needed sturdy packaging. This just gave me confidence that I'm on the right track with packaging fragile things.
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 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!
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! :-)
Thank you for this! This video is a game changer for packing paintings. I have been frankensteining boxes up until now. I did a good job with protecting the paintings though they were bulkier than they needed to be, costing more in shipping and alot more work. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am glad I thought to look for an easier way and glad you provided it. 😊
I just packaged a book shipment and wanted to line the box with more cardboard to stiffen it up. I used a steak knife like yours and it worked really good! I used it in a similar way to how you did- really amazing how well it does work! I also ordered a 2-inch tape dispenser from Amazon because I have some framed artwork up on eBay with now. I notice you hold the dispenser from moving with one hand while pulling with the other. I'll try that. It looks so much faster than stripping a piece off with a standard handheld dispenser. Thanks so much!
If I wasn't recording, and sitting at the angle I was I wouldn't have needed to hold it down at all. I had to alter how I did it for the video. Usually you can just grab the tape from the dispenser with one hand, and then just yank it to cut. We love the table top dispensers, and have many of them around here.
Very detailed tutorial, Professor! Thanks for the lesson! I have a few that I picked up, but was afraid to list! You do a great job of building up this student's confidence! Much appreciated!
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. :)
Thanks for this video! I’ve had stuff that I’ve shipped break even though I thought it was secure. I want a good rep in my reselling business. I appreciate this tutorial a lot.
This is my first week of having your videos show up on TH-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. 🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃
Thanks for that video. I just sold a picture and was worried about the shipping but your video has helped me not be nervous about how to ship it. Also it's given me some courage to list a few that I have wanted to list.
Thanks this video is very useful to me just like the one you did on shipping the stain glass. I think you probably help more people than any other channel.
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.
That was one of the best packing video i have seen today. Thank you for taking time to make this tutorial !!! I recently bought 10 postal boxes for shipping and they were couple of mm short, After watching this video i can say i cant use those boxes to make more sturdy boxes like above.

THANK YOU for providing this superb content. You really are one of the most educational You Tubers out there. You are appreciated.
One of the, if not the best, how to video on shipping framed art with glass. Thank you, Don!
I came for tips on saving money on the postage, but I stayed to see how much cardboard could be involved.
Wasn't disappointed.
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!
That’s the best mind set to have 👍
This Tutorial deserves an award for the Best Video Ever!
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!
oh man - glad I am not the only one wrapping stuff like this ! so time consuming yet so important
Seeing you use those plastic bags for shipping cushions alone was worth the time it took to watch! Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to go into such details with this shipment/packaging.
Packing really is an art in itself
Thanks for this tutorial. You have given me the confidence to sell and ship my photos framed as opposed to sending unframed. Best

Oh my, I have to say it-- You are amazing!! Thank you so much for this tutorial!!
Thanks for taking the time to teach us.😊
Excellent job wrapping that piece! Far better to wrap an item well than to get a broken return!
Once again you are a life saver, thank you for your amazing work.
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!

I am impressed! Beautiful wrapping. Awesome attitude. And look at all the cardboard you have recycled.
Getting ready to ship a vintage mirror and this is just the video I needed. Thank you! Thank you!!!
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!
Thoughtful technique - you're a born teacher! I'll be using this week to send my first framed sale. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your time. I have learned a lot from watching hands on. Thanks again.
Thank you for showing me this I just sold a painting without a glass frame!
@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.

Thank you for these shipping how-to videos
Your knowledge and technique is greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!
Thanks was stressing about finding the right shaped box, this is genius
Nice video Don on a challenging subject for many.
Thanks Dom!
Getting ready to ship out a glass covered painting and this video is so helpful. Love all of your videos! So much good information! Thank you.
Thank you for posting this video! You really helped me out! God Bless!
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.
Isn't the masking tape a pain to get off the glass for the buyer?
So amazingly helpful, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I gonna try this for my valuable painting I found.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge Don. You're a tremendous help
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!! I have some items to sell and this makes me confident I can ship properly! ❤
Thank you! You save a lot of time and costly errors!
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 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 !!
Don, you're poetry in motion!
Thanks for the direct, no BS video! Very helpful.
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!
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.
Good packaging for sure but I chuckled when I thought of an unboxing video somewhere on TH-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
Nice....I do the same thing with re-using/recycling stuff to pad up packages. VERY NICE vid.
Thank you so much for this information and video. It will definitely come in handy.
Interesting to see the process. I've never had to pack picture frames (I hope to do so), yet had sent out other things that needed sturdy packaging. This just gave me confidence that I'm on the right track with packaging fragile things.
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.
Thanks Don! I just sold my first big art piece, I needed this video! Found you in the #2 spot and I’m already a subscriber!
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!
Thank you for this demonstration! Exactly the information I needed for shipping art.
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! :-)
Thank you for this! This video is a game changer for packing paintings. I have been frankensteining boxes up until now.

Answered my question about shipping Large framed mirrors...Thank You ! 😊💯🦋
Very detailed tutorial, Professor! Thanks for the lesson! I have a few that I picked up, but was afraid to list! You do a great job of building up this student's confidence! Much appreciated!

Excellent! Thank you for this useful information.
Thank you for sharing your time and passion with us. 🏴🇬🇧👪🙋🖼️👌🇺🇲
Helping us to put money in our pocket.
This is one of my favorite vids now from you after watching the entire thing. Love it.
Thanks for this video! I’ve had stuff that I’ve shipped break even though I thought it was secure. I want a good rep in my reselling business. I appreciate this tutorial a lot.
Thank you!! This was the most helpful video
Thanks for this great tutorial. You've eased my mind about selling some of my larger framed pieces.
This is my first week of having your videos show up on TH-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. 🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃🌻🍀🎃
Thank you for making this video. It’s a huge help.
WOW! Great job! Thanks for sharing.
I have some art to list and I was afraid to ship because of glass...but this should help. Thanks!
Thank you Don.
I just bought some pictures at an estate sale and this sure will help me get them packed when they sell.
Awesome video, Don! My first framed item. Sincerely appreciate you making this video! Like and subscribed!
I get picture cartons at U-haul for around $8. They have thick cardboard and foam inside.
Awesome video. wow. Just what I needed to see before I put one of my items up for auction. Thank you for the details. You ARE the Professor!
Thanks Don! I always worry about loose glass (not broken) in the frame shifting & breaking during transport. Now I will wrap this way!
Thanks for that video. I just sold a picture and was worried about the shipping but your video has helped me not be nervous about how to ship it. Also it's given me some courage to list a few that I have wanted to list.
Does anyone know where he bought the scoring knife and the huge Tape dispenser????? Thank you, Andrea
@@andreahurtado4464 he bought the tape dispenser on Ebay along with the tape. He listed it in a different video.
Thanks this video is very useful to me just like the one you did on shipping the stain glass. I think you probably help more people than any other channel.
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.
That was one of the best packing video i have seen today. Thank you for taking time to make this tutorial !!!
I recently bought 10 postal boxes for shipping and they were couple of mm short, After watching this video
i can say i cant use those boxes to make more sturdy boxes like above.
Perfect video. Getting ready to put my vintage Lithos on a big sale. Shipping has always been a challenge until now! Thank you for your time 😀
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing your knowlege.
I love it Don thanks for the video. I was one of those people that was scared too ship framed items. Now I’m not!!! Thanks❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
