Bury us all in plastic.

If you do not want to sell prints unmatted, you could cut a flexible mat (of a standard frame size) and hinge the print in position via appropriate tape. We used mailing tubes a lot in the art department where I worked (last century), and there were no complaints of damage to contents.
When we had to send something large and flat, we tried very hard to get a salesman to make a call on the customer. Bubble wrap was the best interior protection layer no matter how the art was shipped.

I have had two camera specific batteries swell, in the last ten years. They are trash - took to battery shop for disposal. Both indicated a reduced charge during last time used.
I have never had a camera specific battery leak - way good news!
I think that once a month is a reasonable time to check the battery condition; mine showed gradual deterioration over a 6 month period.

Putting a DSLR lens on a Mirrorless camera with a bulky adapter makes as much sense as pulling the Budweiser Beer Wagon in a parade with the 20 Mule Team asses. It will work, but it don't look good, and it ain't gonna sell no Beer.

Note: D7200.

Not likely. I have a twice soaked D7100 showing a few quirks; I expect to quietly file it in the trash when it ceases to work. The remaining people who are happy with DSLR cameras probably use the D7200; that could be worth a few pennies because it represents a plateau.
However if you have a handy camera shop (a rarity) take it in and ask if they want it. Our old pro shop had a lot of drawers of parts - which I know went into a dumpster when they closed.

Got two that I use regularly:
16-85mm f3.5-5.6 limited space indoors and out door scenics.
18-200mm f3.5-5.6 indoor stage photography and outdoor events.

Really nice picture but needs the train. I would clone one in in the far distance for a long term picture to place on the wall. Boris

Only trouble with color is that the pictures are in a sequence and there is an expectation from one shot to the next. I have noted the variations as the sun slides in and out of cloud cover. I stopped worrying about it after the point was made that we all have different monitors.
Your subject is fun to watch.

Florida sucks! I've been there.

Mother would buy 10 copies of a fake that good! It's a commercial success, so who cares if it is a photograph!

I bought flower art as a transparency that I thought that I would hang in front of a window. I could not find a window with a satisfactory bland background, so I built a simple frame about 3" deep out of white surface wood paneling, with another piece of white surface board behind the picture. Being lazy I jammed the shoddy construction into the top panel of the double hung window where I wanted to display the picture. Basically tape construction, hidden by curtains, but building a real shallow frame would be easy.
Then the magic. I experimented with light sources and stumbled on a string of LED lights, laid across the bottom of the frame. The lights are hidden by a curtain fringe. Even though the lighting is weaker at the top, it works with this picture. (I experimented with lights strips on the sides, etc., but preferred the bottom illumination.) This was an experimental construction I put up about 5 years ago, and has endured since I never open that window.
In the spirit of my Lava Lamps.

I would not pay new price for a camera; I would buy refurbished or used (know your seller).
The first two questions make no sense without a purpose for the camera = a cell phone.
Boris

What a bummer. Dragons should fly.
