Thought I would throw a little tutorial together for some of you who may be new to shipping. The following tutorial will show you how to use Paypal Multi Order Shipping. Don't let the "Multi" part fool you, you can do a single order.
First go here: www.paypal.com/mos
If the pop-up does not pop-up that means your pop-up blocker blocked it but you will see another link now to click if the window does not open up.
You should now see this window:
After clicking the Create button you should see the window in the pic below. Now enter the order info which I believe may be optional, but I like to put something in so when I look back on my order I can remember what i sent.
Next enter the Shipping Details. If you have a box 13oz or under then you may use the First Class option which will save you $$$. So the key here is to get boxes as small as possible and trim some of the inside flaps to help get those oz's down!
Then enter the Ship To Info
The next tab should already be pre-filled with your address..I erased my info but you will see yours when you get to this tab.
You will also have the option to leave a message for the recipient in the last tab. Hit the Save And Close button when done.
The pop-up window should now close and you will be at the screen below. Highlight the order you just created and the price and info will come up along the right side.
As long as all looks good you should now click the print button on the left side.
At this time you will have the option to change the mailing date and review again before commiting. If all is good highlight the order and click the Pay And Print button.
After this it will process your order deducting the total of the label from your paypal account.
Then a pop-up window with your label will appear and now you simply print and affix the label to your package.
You can always go back to your orders using the history tab if you need to reprint.
And within the history when you highlight your orders you will see the tracking info as well.
And I highly recommend you get yourself a decent scale, I got a digital on eBay for under $20 that does the job very well!
The paypal prices for shipping are a discounted rate from going to the post office! Sometimes saving you a couple dollars, so I highly recommend this process to all!
You can also use the USPS website which is a little more user friendly to ship but they do not allow for First Class or Media Mail on there site. This is where the Paypal shipping pays off the most!
Enjoy
Hope this helps, and if you have any questions let me know!
