i am an ebay refugee, is there a way.....

[dardonboi]

thanks. i now realize i should have posted this in the postage section. i didnt see it before. sorry. it hit me after asking that i think i can do this on paypal but was not sure. i have never done it from there. i always printed and payed from the ebay sight but i guess its really all the same. it always payed it from my paypal. i live in the country and have always just put a note in my mail box that i have packages for pick up on my front porch and the postman would just drive up and get them. as long as they were postage paid. thanks folks.

I don't think we are that formal here. We try to help where ever you find to ask the questions.

By the way WELCOME to eBid.

On most of my little items I would need a bigger package just to accommodate the giant paypig label

The ONE time I thought to use paypig shipping they were $7.00 higher than the PO price

I think they are good on the light stuff and gouge you when you have a little more weight

I use the 4x8 envelopes and trim the labels down, but I'm just taping regular printer paper on the envelopes. That would be a hassle with actual labels, I would think.

Using PayPal is the exact-same cost as the USPS charges I find Paypal fast and efficient... easy to do as long as your Buyer used it to pay you.
I use it 90% of the time.. for USA-USA shipping. Priority or First Class-small package, both come with-include Delivery Confirmation. You can also add Insurance if wanted.

It's a good day when I learn something. Most of my buyers use PayPal, but I assumed since USPS wouldn't print First Class postage, PayPal couldn't either. Duh . . .

Thank you, everybody.

I didn't realize you could print 1st class postage on Paypal, thanks for the info.. I use USPS online most times, for Priority Mail it works well and I avoid the P.O. lines which can be extreme around here at times.

Oh and welcome to eBid from a fellow NCer.

Best wishes for many sales to all,
