LOL, You could mail that card to Russia for $2.10, but Ebay expects you to upload tracking information otherwise you get a defect on your record.
If you have any kind of cardboard backing to protect the card, with tracking you are looking at anywhere from $10.90 and $12.90, depending on your shipping discounts.
Costs a minimum of $2.60, not including supplies if you are using and kind of tracking and a cardboard backing in the U.S..
That doesn't even take into account that the combination of Ebay/Paypal will also take about 13-14% of that shipping charge and put it into their own coffers.
