Paypal mail
I thought I heard this from someone on another board before but: Can you purchase shipping labels through Paypal even if it is not a sale? Example: I have a trade and instead of having to go to Post Office, can I just purchase the label through Paypal?

RE: Paypal mail
You need a scale and a printer
I have been doing it for the bulk of my sales/trades for several years
You have to pick PayPal Multiship and enter all the info then pay and print

RE: Paypal mail
yea just go to multi order shipping and create your label with the address and weight and you can print them out just like Ebay labels. This is the only way I ship know. Very easy.

OK, I'm an idiot. I don't see multi-order shipping. When I'm in My Account, I see no area about shipping. It seems easy but I can't find the initial area to ship.

after you log in, click on merchant services, then you will find muti-order shipping button.
You can't use this to print labels for packages going to Canada though. That seems to be available only through ebay sales.

RE: Paypal mail
I started using PayPal shipping about two weeks ago when the postal rates went up, and I love it! Can't believe it took me this long to switch. Not only does it save me time and the hassle of going to the post office, but it's cheaper and delivery confirmation is free!
