Hi, I joined the community just to help you .:)  I have shipped probably thousands of packages with the small bubble mailers.   .I don't make lables with the usps system normally but I do select package when I am determining shipping cost for out of country shipments & my cost is always right on the money as I figurered When I get to the p.o.  . I usually make my lables with the Paypal system I select ... Service type ........1st class mail parcel [2-5 days] Then select .. package size........package/envelope   then put the weight usually only 2oz. for my packages & it cost me 1.58 [if I don't insure]    I love being able to make my lables at home & make a carrier pickup request for my post office.[from the usps website   The post person gets credit for every package you have them pick up.mpre money for them 🙂    Hower it will only let you make a request for pickup  if you have atleast one pri mail package or 1 out of country package . no problem,  My carrier told me to select 1 pri mail package even if I didn't have one to pick up   As to shipping out of country... I use the online usps shipping calculater to figure my cost, and send a check with my packages for them to get it ready at the post office for me . For instance for u,k. with a 2oz bubble mailer via 1st class international it only cost less then 3.00 If you have a valuable package it will cost you an extra 11.00 for Registered mail  you must put it in a box & wrap special water activated  tape around it. it is very secure. Everyone who handles your package will have to sign for it they will have the tape at your p.o.   Ofcourse we have a smaller post office & I am not sure if just any p.o. will do this for you. I have a rural carrier I hope this helps you a bunch !! Flossy2   ... View more

Thank you all for your posts!   It is frustrating when you use your hard earned money on  items you want or need and never receive them, or when the seller will not communicate with you.   If you filed a claim with eBay, I would wait the 7 days and then escalate it.  If the seller does not have tracking and you do not have your merchandise the claim will more than likely be awarded in your favor.   Claims can be filed with eBay or PayPal, but not both.  since you filed with eBay you will have to continue working with eBay.  you have buyer protection so you will receive your refund.   The waiting is the hard part.   I am sorry for the inconvenience that this has caused you.   Amy ...

If the seller doesn't have online viewable proof of delivery to your address, they will lose the claim.   Ebay will refund your money, even if the seller has cleaned out their paypal account.     ... View more

I thought they released the shipping charges right away so I ordered the labels.   you thought wrong - too bad you didn't check instead of just charging ahead - we would have told you.     you ever buy something from Amazon or anywhere else where you can make the seller wait till AFTER you get the item to see if you pay?   Has nothing to do with the current situation.   You're not on Amazon, you're selling on ebay.  The listing form you use CLEARLY tells you that you may be subject to the hold and, once again, if you ask people, you'll find out what the situation is.   If this isn't to your liking, you're welcome to sell elsewhere. ...
