I definitely do not like getting cards in 39 cent envelopes. I prefer that cards be sent in bubble mailers with the card attached to a piece of cardboard to prevent the card from being bent.
My guess is that a lot of sellers are charging more for shipping to try to get back their eBay listing fees, eBay final sales fees and any PayPal fees that they might incur during the transaction -- in addition to the cost of postage and the envelope. Of course the guy you bought from didn't pay much for the envelope.
