@@ivault3 When a package is so large that you cannot read the display. If you can't read the display, you press the hold button. You then take your package off of the scale, and read the display's weight. On a scale that doesn't have the hold function, you would then need to weigh each individual item, then add up the amounts weight, to determine the shipping weight.. including the shipping box and dunnage.
Wait how did you do this? Because my shipping label cost is like $6-$8 and I don’t wanna pay so much out of pocket, do I really need a specific printer to get a cheaper price?
Can I ask you a question, so in the video I don’t know if you watched the whole thing but it was $9 to get to him and if I do that I will be losing money because my shipping is $5.99 but if I personally print it , from there will usps know it’s from there and charge cheaper shipping?
It depends what you are shipping and how much your package weighs to find out the cost. It may be cheaper or it may be more expensive depending. If you lose a little money then you will learn for next time.
Another small tip regarding the End of Day scan form. For those that may not be aware, you can print this form on a 4x6 and the barcode will still scan as it would a full sheet. Even though my carrier does not use the scan form (they are rural carriers and get more credit for individually scanning) my in the office USPS folks love it.
Carlos Cano they’re factors into play and can depend on the size of the box and it’s location! Remember it’s cubic shipping! For a 1lb item I wouldn’t use cubic shipping, I’ll use a flat rate envelope or padded flat rate; if it fits. In your case I’ll use Mercari bc at $4.99 for a pound its a great deal, that’s a first class rate 👌🏽I don’t sell on Mercari but I’m sure that’s a special price for them. My item was so compact and small is why I’m guessing I got the rate I got!
The box in a bag thing is pretty awesome I haven’t tried that yet but I have used them for regular large boxes and saved hundreds! Thanks for the video man lots of good info!
Omg! I thought I knew all the hacks, but you have saved my life! I was always wondering how people got the scan form. This will be such a help with shipping times. Thank you!
Thanks for checking it out! How did you get those mixed up? Checking too many boxes and buying the shipping? It's not streamlined for large volume sellers with the integration from my experience ☹️
thecollegepicker , to be honest I just didn’t look at the labels after I printed them. I thought that all I had to do was print all and the labels would come up with each buyers information and it didn’t. So by me not checking twice, I got myself in a pickle. I’m not a height volume seller either. I wouldn’t trust trying to spool all your sales in one group. That’s the only fall back I can see. Pirate ship is my go to shipping site. I don’t even bother with USPS or eBay labels anymore. I do use my Paypal business debit card as my payment form and I get 1% cash back on shipping 😉
You had me sold halfway through the video with the Simple Export tip! Thank you! You just saved me $10 on a package I'm about to ship and probably 100s a year compared to USPS. Kicking myself for not doing this sooner. lol
Yes, this is very much needed vlog. It sure went by me quickly but I hopefully was able put it in my system. I just listed my first item on eBay after 50+ years. I know it’s easier with repeated exposures. Again, tnx for the lesson 😺.

I just started mailing decals, which are really light weight and simple, but shipping is still $4 for first class and $8 for priority. I tried looking into this, and ITS MORE EXPENSIVE than the post office. I came up as almost $6 for first class. WTH?
THIS WORKS I PUT IN AN ADRESS FOR A PAST CUSTOMER AND IT GAVE ME THE EXACT PRICE I PAID AS THE RETAIL PRICE AND GAVE ME THW ACTUAL PROCE AT $2 LESS IM SO USING THIS FOR MY BUSINESS IM SO GOAD I GOT AN AD FOR ONCE!
I use Shippo because it supports all the carriers, not just USPS and the rates are the same or cheaper than pirate ship because it supports the same cubic shipping rates for USPS. It has most the same integrations as pirate ship too but the trade off is it costs 5 cents per label. Worth it in my opinion.
I’m torn before pirate ship & shippo. We’re a start up brand, in Australia and use UPS & auspost, we’re currently with ship station but I’ve seen a lot of complaints with ship station. Have you had any issues with shippo ?
@@joanamaas8767 If you're not having any issues with ship station, it may not be worth the effort to switch if you're not having any issues with them. If you are changing providers, though, I recommend Shippo
That was an awesome video Eric I’m going to get this done and I just sold a cast iron skillet and I’m going to see what the difference in price is because it fits in a padded USPS envelope so will check it out
Thanks for watching. Padded flat rate won't be any cheaper on pirateship, I actually think it's about 2% cheaper on eBay. Not exactly sure why. This is one of the outliers 🤣🙏
I don’t get it how does this work when the customer buys the item and pays the shipping. How are you getting rates when the customer has already paid a rate?
You are 100% being scammed as a customer. That $21 you paid in shipping on eBay, the seller paid $14 at most. The seller sucks up the remaining $7 and eBay will never know that they ripped you off. I never buy anything that has shipping costs over $10. Doesn’t matter what it is, I’m not paying those absurd rates.
Before the USPS went to the DIM rate last June, Pirateship was the bomb for me! After that Pirateship is rarely cheaper. I believe it is because they implemented ZONES and since I live in the middle of the country my pricing is different than someone more towards a coastal area. Example, before the DIM rate went into effect, you and I were charged the same rate for a 3lb. box to California. Now with the DIM weight - ZONES, your cost is higher than mine for the same box because you are further so Pirateship helps you out. I shipped some shoes to California yesterday, 3lb and 9 oz. Pirateship was a $1.04 more:) Every once in a while though I get to pull off the box in and tricks and save some money:)
Love this Thank you! I use Paypal credit card and get cash back deal. So much I didn't know could be done. You are awesome! Will be watching again. So much great information.
I remember when i was young the big joke was to hold your tongue while saying I was born on a Pirate Ship. I hope you can figure out what it sounds like on your own when you do it.
I had no idea about the simple export rates. I wish I would have known that. I would probably have saved a ton of money on a package I just shipped to Canada. Thank for the info.
Eric that was a great demo video I have not done pirate ship yet but now it seems as though I’m going to jump on the bandwagon and I might try today because I just sold a cast iron skillet that fits into a padded flat rate so let’s see what the difference in is that
Glad you enjoyed! =) Padded flat rate for whatever reason is 2% cheaper on ebay. Pirate ship is good for small heavy things that do not fit in padded flat rate. Cubic rate =)
Thank you so much for this video, very well explained. MY question is: where do I buy the shipping envelopes and how do I know if the envelope I buy is the correct one with the one shown on the Pirate Ship website?
Rallie Root subscriber here 👋 subscribing to your channel 😊 Keep up the great work you all are doing it's very inspirational for my family and myself. ✨
have a question. When you add pirate shipping to Etsy will the customer have to pay for the ups shipping because when you list your items it says ups will be the shipper. So overall do I pay for the pirate shipping and they pay for the ups shipping I’m so confused 🤣
@@tiffanyevans8801 so it only works with usps but I think you have to charge the Etsy customer for shipping and pay pirate shipping but I don’t know because I didn’t use it.
Good info for sure. Did you talk with them about putting a box into a polybag for a cheaper rate? I didn't think that was okay to do? I look forward to binge-watching more of your videos.
Great video! Very helpful and now I know how to save some money on shipping certain items. Without your helpful video, I would have gone on wasting a couple dollars here and there with EBAY shipping only. Thanks for all you do!!
The thing that sucks about pirate ship is that once you start doing any kind of volume (even a few orders a day) you have to abandon it because they have few integrations and no API. Even if they were lazy and tied to Zapier, that would be something better than they currently have. Because of this you can't plumb integrations between different websites, services and mailing lists, as you want to spend your time working on the business, not manually transferring csv files, marking shipped in your shopping platform, and other manual busy body work. Other than that I love the simplicity of pirateship. Sadly having to leave it behind because they refuse to do the work, which really isn't that hard to create a REST API.
what do you suggest as a better alternative? I am disappointed as well that there's no bulk shipping action that lets you choose shipping options like they do on ebay bulk shipping. I would like to use Cubic shipping rates but don't know if it's worth it to spend the extra time printing labels on ebay for my padded priority flat rates then on pirate ship for cubic to save a few dollars a day.
I have also noticed Priority packages shipped through PirateShip say they come w/ $100 insurance whereas normally Priority through USPS onlys come w/ $50 insurance standard. Do you know if this is an extra benefit offered through PirateShip? Or is this a typo in the rates?
The least I could do for a 20 something video. Trying to add as much value as I can 🙏🙏 thanks Brock it's like a tutorial within tutorials with the time stamps 🤣
This video was amazing!!! Thank you Eric. New Subby here!! Not sure if you answered this or not. Does pirate ship email your custom a tracking update of their package?? You didn't cover that in the video
Great info Eric thanks!! Now can you show us step by step shipping with Poshmark??? Please???? I think Poshmark has its own shipping contract with USPS but I really want to see it step by step on your computer screen just like this one. Can’t wait to start reselling but the shipping makes me so nervous 😬

You will need a shipping scale for printing shipping from home - amzn.to/2QPCyXh Under $20 👌
How do you do multiple labels & pay once all labels are done filled out.
Hi, reach out to pirate ship chat and they will be happy to get it all situated for you.
I bought one (the shipping scale / Amazon link) a few years ago. Just this year I noticed the 'Hold' button. 😛 Saves time!
@@parisattic what is the hold button for?!
@@ivault3 When a package is so large that you cannot read the display. If you can't read the display, you press the hold button. You then take your package off of the scale, and read the display's weight.
On a scale that doesn't have the hold function, you would then need to weigh each individual item, then add up the amounts weight, to determine the shipping weight.. including the shipping box and dunnage.
I went from paying around $12-15 per shipment to $3 a shipment plus I can do it from home! Had to buy a printer but totally worth it 👌
does it have to be a label printer or does a regular paper printer work ?
@@Dreadzynormal printer will work. Just have to tape it on the box instead of it being a sticker you slap on
Wait how did you do this? Because my shipping label cost is like $6-$8 and I don’t wanna pay so much out of pocket, do I really need a specific printer to get a cheaper price?
@@cheyenna666 pirate ship
I read online you can print from library if you don’t have a printer. and tape it on.
I love PirateShip it saves my business so much money on shipping!

Haven’t been able to answer what I thought would be a simple and question, and one that would have been one of the initial functionalities a potential or new user would be curious about, as well as one of the first areas that would be addressed in various tutorials.
-?? CAN I PRINT STAMPS ??-
-?? CAN IT BE USED TO MAIL STANDARD LETTERS/ ENVELOPES-??
Ive watched & read a ton of stuff and haven’t found answers.
Ty
No stamps
