"Does worrying about shipping keep you from starting...?" YES! But I took screenshots from this video (of your very handy lists) and am going to get my supplies ordered ASAP. Thank you! 👏🙌
This video just gave me the confidence to selling on ebay. the fact that you have a price breakdown and links to supplies is the biggest thing. my biggest fear was operating at a loss or minimal profit because i was not pricing shipping accordingly. this video makes it so clear. thank you!
Most businesses don't turn much of a profit right at the start. I looked at it at the beginning as relatively cheap education. If I missed a bit on shipping, it wouldn't kill my business. And Melody and I learned quickly and started making money pretty soon. If we can do this, you can too!
This helped me so much, too. It’s honestly the thing that stopped me from starting. I didn’t understand first class vs priority and how to ship each based on weight. I’ve got all my supplies ordered and ready to get started.
I've had this want to do this for years and have always had this sense of being afraid of failing or being overwhelmed with all the ins and outs. I believe I'm going to give this a try after watching a few of your videos. I'm also in education and maybe I somehow have a connection with you but the way you come across is so sincere and most importantly REAL!! It really makes me feel like I can do it. I wish I had you as my mentor. Lol. Best of luck with your continued success and THANK YOU!
I just started selling on Ebay and shipping is the biggest learning curve involved in this process. I’m still learning but feel I have a better handle on it. I have found I hardly use the priority boxes unless a customer requests Priority. I ended up buying and saving my own boxes. Found them very cheap. Don’t want to spend a lot of money on this. Lol
Your videos have helped me tremendously and gave me the confidence to say yes. In a month and a half I have sold over 2000.00 in product. So glad I gave it a try. Thanks so much!!
It takes a lot of work, but the rewards are genuine. I get to work from home. How much a make is, in large part, up to me. I think you're going to be very, very successful. @@melanieison7687
You really can do it. I mean that. When you're first getting started, it does seem intimidating. It's kind of like learning to drive. At first, everything seems to be coming at you so fast. Soon enough, a lot of what you need to know and do is ingrained and doesn't require so much mental effort.
Much needed video!!! I was afraid to list on eBay bc of shipping. Thank you so much for a very informative video on what to charge & what supplies are needed to ship! New subscriber here!
Thanks for the info on the shipping. I have made so many mistakes before that now I need to be more aware of the items weight before listing them. Also, prices have gone up and I have made adjustments to my shipping charges on most of my items.
Are you listing?!?! You sound like you're ready to kick this thing off! You've got this. :-) Remember, don't buy anything you can live without. That said, a scale and a printer are things you will really need.
I have US postal services envy! Free supplies WOW (I have to scavenge local stores for used boxes or rely on friends to pass on their boxes from on line shipping), Boxes at Canada Post cost $4-$8 dollars each for the box not including the shipping. Most small parcels cost from a minimum of $25 to ship domestically. Some times it is cheaper to ship items to the US than it is locally! EBay selling (and other platforms) is very challenging for Canadian resellers!
Amen. Every time I see someone using the supplies for something other than shipping USPS Priority, it bothers me. They are going to ruin it for the rest of us.
I read through the comments and still am not clear on how you decide whether to use the usps boxes or your own box. how do you determine which is the cheaper way to ship? especially beforehand when listing it do you need to list shipping cost to begin with or do they do that automatically? I have a couple hundred items ready to list and this is my last obstacle.
If it's under a pound and I can ship it First Class, I'm always going to use my own boxes/envelopes. The USPS boxes are only for Priority Mail. Priority Mail is always more expensive than First Class. You can't mail anything First Class if it's over 16 ounces. First example. Let's say I'm shipping a baseball cap. I ship all of my caps in a box so they don't get crushed. But even after I package it up in a box, it only weighs 13 ounces. So, I would ship that First Class in my box. Second example. Let's say I'm shipping a jacket that weighs 1 pound and 3 ounces. That can't go First Class and will have to go Priority Mail. Since I'm using Priority Mail, I would use the post office boxes Priority for that. I would almost always use the USPS Priority boxes for things over a pound if I can. Most of the time, just because I've shipped so many packages, I know the packaged weight pretty closely. If I'm not sure, I weigh it when I'm listing. Does that help?
@@TheChaChingKing YES! thank you for replying, and so quickly! I will mostly be selling circuit boards, small ones weighing 6 ounces or less, and some bigger ones weighing almost a pound. the tiny boards I intend to put into bubble mailers. I will order some boxes for most of these boards from u-line then. thanks!
Actually i found trying to setup business policies very confusing. But once I did I have three first class “flat rates” policies for weight ranges, then a flat padded flat rate and calculated priority. I add new ones as needed based on the item. And as I’m listing an item i figure out what it will be packed in and weigh it all to get as accurate on what shipping policy/price I need to come close to breaking even. I made a little here and there, and loose a little here and there but it all balances out. Determine my packaging up front and I leave a sticker on the item reminding me how to ship it has saved me $$.
I want to sell a few things on eBay as a casual seller, (not a big business), but the whole thing seems so much more complicated than I thought it would be. Now I’m intimidated by the whole thing.🤷🏽♀️😩🤦🏽♀️
If you are not using eBay global shipping program. Remember VOEC number on the outside of package. Then you will not have a problem with angry customers who have paid taxes twice..
Hi brother, I hope it’s OK that I send you a question here, I don’t know where else to turn. You’ve helped me so much so far in so many of your videos. I’ve been selling on eBay for about four weeks, and you are the inspiration that the Lord used to get me going. But now I have a problem. I sold a HP ink cartridge on eBay that I know it was brand new because it was my ink cartridge that I opened up to put in my printer and it was the wrong size. Walmart would not let me return because the box was open. I thought well I should sell it since it’s brand new just the box is open. Well it’s sold, and now the seller is saying that the ink cartridges were empty. And 0:31 wants his money back. I went ahead and authorized a label to have them ship it back but I know that he will just ship me his old cartridges. It’s not so much the money but I don’t want eBay to think that I’m trying to scam people by selling cartridges with no ink. Should I try to let them Know that he is scamming me? or do I just keep my mouth shut and give him a refund and go on?
This is a good question. If he sends you back an old empty cartridge, contact eBay. The bigger issue is making sure you protect your feedback. I'm sorry you're dealing with that. It won't be something you have to do all the time. Thank you SO much for the kind words.
Do we create the account as a personal or a business account? This venture is so similar to a business so that part tripped me up! Thanks for the reply!
I started mine as a personal account. It doesn't matter to the IRS how you do it. Business or personal, it gets reported. So, I'd start it as personal and convert it later if you find a need for it.
This new shipping policy thing with the new update has me so frustrated. It’s the worst part of the update. Im a pro shipper, my feedback speaks for itself and now I’m getting burnt on cost because of this update. I create my own policy’s and delete almost all the others to minimize the list. Then none of the customs even show up when building the listing. It’s so dumb now. It’s cost me hours of time and now money trying to fix 600 listings to make sure it’s right.
@@TheChaChingKing Yea, then send ebay a bill for your time. Sold a game and the listing had free shipping cause of this new update. I’m not gonna cancel the order tho, just gonna eat the shipping cost and move on hoping there isn’t anymore errors. Id feel like a dick messaging the buyer to tell him I can’t sell it. It was $0 investment like 90% of my items so it could of been a lot worse.
Me again. I can't find the box link below? I know I could just type it in the search bar on Amazon, but I'd like to use your affiliate link. After all, you are giving us "free" advice. Also, for us newbies, could you do a video on what type of shipping you would choose for different items-like a USPS priority flat rate envelope versus a poly mailer? I know there are RUclipsrs who do live "list and ship" videos, but I don't have time to watch those as they are usually and hour or so long. I really like your style, quick and to the point.
You're right...it wasn't there. I have updated it. It should be at the bottom of the description now. You may have to refresh your browser. And...thanks! It's truly appreciated. I'm trying to create a series of videos for beginners. I know that when I click on a tutorial, I usually opt for the shortest one...lol. So, I'm trying to cover the basics quick and painlessly.
Due to the whole shipping, I am reluctant to start again, as I am in Europe, and I have not found any tutorials yet that are dealing with shipping from Europe. I am confused on a higher level:)
Hey, Great video!! I have a question about returns since you list that you accept returns. What return address do you use if a customer wants to return the item? Do you use your home address, a UPS Store address, USPS, etc.? I find this part very confusing because I don't really want the customer to know exactly where I live for privacy purposes. Your help here will be GREATLY appreciated!! Thank you so much!
I have a laptop computer and could not get my printer to connect. Which is a good printer in your opinion? I will be looking at some more of your series. Thank you!
First, Thank you so much for these videos. Second, here is my problem. I am selling my comic book collection. I sold 89 comics to one person. All bag and boarded. The package weighed 19 pounds. I couldn't fit it all in a large priority box so the shipping was very expensive. $55 bucks at USPS. What would have been my best option at that point?
I would have used two large flat rate boxes. That would have made it $40. If the box was secure, you could have used Ground Advantage and it could have been cheaper.
Since I sell only comics, how much should use Ground Advantage (weight wise and price point wise) and when should I use Priority Mail Flat Rate envelopes?
I would imagine that they wouldn't weigh more than 8 ounces depending on the comic and how you package it. If I were to put the comic into an envelope, I'd make sure it's supported by cardboard or something. I wouldn't go to Priority myself until it was a pretty valuable comic book...say over $50. But that's truly a decision you'd need to make.
The size will depend on your printer, but you can buy peel and stick labels for regular printers. I bought single sheet labels in the standard 8.5X11. It had two 4X6 labels on it.
What is Regional A box, I'm a retired Postmaster, we never used them, we had 1092, and Regular Flat Rates( Small Medium and Large) No Board game boxes or shoe boxes. I put Regional A into search box at USPS it came up )? Thanks Scott
You are a GREAT teacher! Since Global Ebay shipping is shipped to Kentucky, can we use USPS Priority packaging for an International customer? How does using Flat Rate S&H prices work if the customer is international? Is there another table of prices for that? I just shipped my first sale in many years yesterday. If there are any problems, doesn't Ebay shipping alert you? (I'm asking because I got a text claiming it's from USPS saying the address is inaccurate but the item shows in transit on Ebay so I'm thinking the text is a hacker.)
The text sounds like a hacker to me, too. When you ship international through ebay, the buyer pays ebay for all of the shipping costs outside of the US. So you can use Ground Advantage or Priority. Ebay moved their international shipping to Illinois recently. EIS now instead of the global shipping program. For me, it's been better.
Firstly, thank you for the thorough explanation. Recently, I've already purchased polymailers because most or my items I will be selling are clothing pieces. Can I use my polymailers and still select priority/ flat rate shipping without using USPS packaging?
You can absolutely use your own packaging. That said, it's free to open a USPS account and then you can order FREE USPS Priority supplies. I use a lot of the padded flat rate envelopes from USPS.
Hi new subscriber here. Loving the info. Thank you. Quick question... do you actually purchase the label from eBay? What is an average cost of doing so? Thanks so much!
Thanks! I do buy the label directly through ebay. First Class. Under 16 ounces, usually costs 5 or 6 dollars. Priority mail, 1 pound and over, starts at about $8 and goes...way...up
This was a greatly informative video have you done one on actually using ur Rollo printer? Can I hook it up to a laptop or do I need to have a desktop computer? Etc.
The Rollo will hook up to a laptop. The only trouble I've had is when I hooked it up to the new AMD Ryzen 5000 series chip set. That chipset needs a patch to connect to the Rollo. There is no patch as of last week. But VERY few laptops would have that processor. I haven't done a Rollo specific video. I will say this, the Rollo customer service is very helpful if you ever need to contact them.
thanks for the video and all the information! has something changed with the regional rate boxes since making this video or maybe im just blind? haha cant seem to find any boxes that say "regional rate" on them and even when i search those keywords it comes up with no results.
Yep, you are correct. The post office has done away with the Regional Rate A and the Regional Rate B boxes. I really need to update this video! The platforms and post offices make changes faster than I can keep up. :-)
Can I use a label printer like you have with my iPad gen7? Sorry I’m not the best with technology and I’m starting to sell on eBay so I’m gathering info
I'm not an Apple guy, but Rollo works with Mac and Windows. The Rollo wireless works with iPad, iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, Chromebook, Linux and more! I'm a big fan of my Rollo.
@@TheChaChingKing yes I just told my wife today that I’m getting one of them because I’ve been binge watching your videos lol. Your pleasant attitude and ways of explaining things makes me confident I can make a good at this so thank you. I was intimidated before I started watching
How would you ship something as delicate as a Christopher Radko ornament? I don't have the original box. I've just recently found your videos and have learned a lot. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I shipped a ton of ornaments this year. I wrapped them in soft tissue and put them in a small box. Packed with tissue where they couldn't jostle around. Then, I put that box in a larger box surrounded by at least 2 inches on each side with packing peanuts. I did not have a single ornament arrive broken.
Silly Question here, but when creating the USPS account, we want to pick personal? I feel like free shipping supplies might be exclusive to business owners.
So just how do you set up your store's shipping rates, if not using calculated? How do we find how much Flat rate is for the various size pkgs? Could you explain using Regional A and B?
We sell a lot of clothing, so we have a really good idea what it'll cost to ship. The easiest way to see how much the flat rate boxes will cost to ship is to click on them the next time your shipping something. You don't have to purchase them in order to see what they would cost. So, for me, Regional Rate A is usually around $11.25 and it works well for a lot of things. A lot of it is just experience.
@@terrystexastreasures6809 Strictly by price. I often compare the different options when I'm shipping. If I have a very heavy item that will fit in a flat rate box, I am probably better off using that box. If it is relatively light weight, I may be better off to use a regular Priority box. For me, it just comes down to which one is the least expensive. It varies based on the item being shipped and its destination.
Used you affiliate link our digital scale recently bit the dust after 20 years! Needed a new one and that one was perfect! We have been using a vintage scale that I actually picked up to sell lol. Is there a reason you don’t use calculated shipping? We do and it works for us but our items are already boxed when listed (we are committed to reusing boxes and shipping materials to lessen our impact on the earth though. We commonly ‘source’ our materials from the dumpsters of particular retail stores lol)
Before the new shipping options, the buyer had to wait to pay if you didn't put in a defined shipping cost. So, I got into the habit then. Keep in mind, not doing calculated shipping just because "we've always done it this way" is really a poor reason. The other reason is that, as I experiment with calculated shipping, the sales seem slower. I admit I haven't experimented enough to account for my own bias.
@@TheChaChingKing I completely get the ‘we’ve always done it that way’. Those of us who have been around for a while got pretty good at knowing what an item will ship for. I can estimate pretty much on target but the rates keep rising with USPS!!!
I've sold items posted with USPS media mail shipping offered (Items which fit the category descriptions), and the customer buys the item changes the USPS media to First Class Mail and gets charged for USPS media mail rates which is less than I pay when the shipping label is purchased. Why and how does this happen?
I have no idea. The buyer can sometimes request a different shipping method and sometimes it seems that eBay puts something different on there when I'm buying my label. But I always change it back to shipping method I offered with the item if I didn't specify choices. When a different method is used, it charges me for it.
I know. :-( I used the Regional Rate A ALL THE TIME. So far, I've just being using the weight and dimensions. I will probably check out Pirate Ship again and make sure their cubic rates aren't a better price.
Question friend. Are you locked into the shipping choice when you choose at listing time when the item is sold. I had an item sell that was under an oz, I had picked ground advantage out of ignorance when I listed. When it sold I wanted to do standard envelop and it said I couldnt?
It probably didn't let you because the category your item was listed in didn't qualify. The Standard Envelope service has some limitations that other services don'thave. And, anytime you choose a service you didn't have, make sure you aren't downgrading the shipping. That's an easy way to get an unhappy customer. But, you aren't automatically barred from choosing a different service when you go to ship your item.
When you buy your label through eBay, you're getting a rate that they've negotiated with the post office. That is similar to commercial rates. It's almost always a far better deal than buying a label at the post office counter. Buying it at the counter is a retail rate. The zones on the map are 1, 2, 3... as you've pointed out. I probably just misspoke.
I'm learning so much from your videos. I'm wondering if you have a video on exactly how to list and ship authentic sneakers. I'm confused on shipping. Do you charge twice for shipping? Because first the item ships to the authenticator, then the authenticator ships to the buyer. Also, does the tracking receipt automatically go to ebay from the post office, or does the seller have to scan it to ebay? Then there's a time frame. Omg! What if I don't get to the po on time? I work full time. It's recommended to ship same day. I only have time to list and sell one thing at a time, seems like. I really need to get started listing, but this is really confusing me.
I haven't created one specifically for shoes that go through the authentication program. But I can try and answer the questions. You do not charge twice for shipping. Part of that service for the customer is the shipping cost from the authentication center to the buyer. When you ship through eBay, all the tracking numbers are uploaded automatically. If there's a chance you can't ship everyday, just set your shipping time to two or even three days. You're better off to ship less frequently than you are to ship late. As far as the time it takes to go through the whole process, the buyer expects that knowing it has a layover at the authentication center (or they should). Expected delivery times are automatically extended. Further, once it gets to the authentication center safely, when it ships on to the customer, eBay is then responsible for it making it to them. I hope that helps a little!
HELP! I mistakenly did something on my PC and I can't get my shipping settings back to USPS/default mode...can you give me a walkthrough on how to get it back?
Most of this was for US domestic shipping. I do sell internationally, but I use the Ebay International Shipping program. SO, in effect, I just ship my package to an eBay hub and they do the international shipping from there.
@@nicnac1 On your seller hub there is a section titles "Shortcuts." In that section you should see "Site preferences." Click on that. On the left side, under SELLING, you should see "Shipping preferences." Click on that. Then, you can opt in or out in that top section.
While your locale may require something different, I don't need a license to sell on eBay. eBay takes care of all of the sales tax collection, paying and reporting. I do have a sales tax exemption I have to turn in. But, since all of my sales are online, I don't have anything to report other than what eBay does. Part of eBay's fees covers the collection and reporting of sales tax. Every time anyone fuses about eBay fees I consider them cheap because I'm not messing with sales taxes in 50 different states.
Good question! You can't use the padded flat rate envelope for anything other than Priority mail. So, if you were trying to save money and Ground Advantage was a cheaper option, you'd need your own poly mailer.
How do i go about getting thw shipping label if i dont have a printer? I just sold my first item not knowing theyd surprise me and with a time limit to ship it. I gotta send a video game out in 2 days
With no printer, buy the label on eBay and then save that QR code to your phone. The post office can print the labels out for you for no additional charge.
Im using calculated shipping, if the shipping price appearce greater from somone who lives somewhere very very far from me the shipping fee will appear more from their perspective, but if somone lives not that far it will appear cheaper for them? If so what price do I put for calculated shipping, kinda having a hard time. I don't wanna price my shipping at 8.99 if somone very far away buys it thus doubling the amount I'd have to ship. If that makes sense.
If you use calculated shipping, you don't enter a price at all. Ebay will charge them based on the weight and dimensions you enter. It will automatically charge them more if they live further away from you. Hope that helps!
Thank you for the great video! Just started selling again on Ebay and the post office is giving me a hard time about scanning multiple packages (even though I've only had maybe 5 or 6 at time). Can you tell me how to print one label for them to scan? Is this possible to do after already have purchased all the labels? Thank you!
While i don't have to print a scan sheet for my post office, I don't think you can do it if you've already purchased your labels. But I'm not 100% sure of that. I think you print it from the bulk shipping label section before you purchase and print. Again, I'm not entirely sure because I don't do it that way.
Absolutely. I order the padded flat rate mailers by the hundreds. Keep in mind, you can ONLY use them to ship priority mail. And, it can cost more than Ground Advantage. For us, I think the padded flat rate just went up to $9.30 plus the eBay fees. So, we usually charge $9.99 and figure that's close enough right now.
I'm living in Canada, started a eBay business and I'm struggling with shipping! Could you help? I followed your videos but I'm getting like 20$ on shipping on a shirt in Canada. Also would you suggest international shipping when starting out?
Ugh...Canada probably gets the worst deal of any country outside the US on shipping. Yes, you will probably want global shipping on to expand you customer base. To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a work around for the cost of shipping to the US. Unless you live close enough to the border to ship from a US address, it's going to cost more. As far as shipping within Canada, I just have no experience with it. You will probably get more help by looking for Canadian eBay sellers to see what they are doing. I'm truly sorry I couldn't be more help.
Usps, United States Postal Service, does pick up packages over 1 pound. That service is usually Priority Mail. If you take it to the post office, only the post office can deliver it. You can choose when you buy the label if you want another carrier

Hi, When creating the USPS account
Should we choose personal or business account? Thank you for the video 😊
We just did a personal account.
I have US postal services envy! Free supplies WOW (I have to scavenge local stores for used boxes or rely on friends to pass on their boxes from on line shipping), Boxes at Canada Post cost $4-$8 dollars each for the box not including the shipping. Most small parcels cost from a minimum of $25 to ship domestically. Some times it is cheaper to ship items to the US than it is locally! EBay selling (and other platforms) is very challenging for Canadian resellers!
Amen. Every time I see someone using the supplies for something other than shipping USPS Priority, it bothers me. They are going to ruin it for the rest of us.
I read through the comments and still am not clear on how you decide whether to use the usps boxes or your own box. how do you determine which is the cheaper way to ship? especially beforehand when listing it do you need to list shipping cost to begin with or do they do that automatically? I have a couple hundred items ready to list and this is my last obstacle.
If it's under a pound and I can ship it First Class, I'm always going to use my own boxes/envelopes. The USPS boxes are only for Priority Mail. Priority Mail is always more expensive than First Class. You can't mail anything First Class if it's over 16 ounces.
First example. Let's say I'm shipping a baseball cap. I ship all of my caps in a box so they don't get crushed. But even after I package it up in a box, it only weighs 13 ounces. So, I would ship that First Class in my box.
Second example. Let's say I'm shipping a jacket that weighs 1 pound and 3 ounces. That can't go First Class and will have to go Priority Mail. Since I'm using Priority Mail, I would use the post office boxes Priority for that. I would almost always use the USPS Priority boxes for things over a pound if I can.
Most of the time, just because I've shipped so many packages, I know the packaged weight pretty closely. If I'm not sure, I weigh it when I'm listing.
Does that help?
@@TheChaChingKing YES! thank you for replying, and so quickly! I will mostly be selling circuit boards, small ones weighing 6 ounces or less, and some bigger ones weighing almost a pound. the tiny boards I intend to put into bubble mailers. I will order some boxes for most of these boards from u-line then. thanks!
Actually i found trying to setup business policies very confusing. But once I did I have three first class “flat rates” policies for weight ranges, then a flat padded flat rate and calculated priority. I add new ones as needed based on the item. And as I’m listing an item i figure out what it will be packed in and weigh it all to get as accurate on what shipping policy/price I need to come close to breaking even. I made a little here and there, and loose a little here and there but it all balances out. Determine my packaging up front and I leave a sticker on the item reminding me how to ship it has saved me $$.
That sounds really efficient. Ours isn't completely unlike that.
I found this video very simple and helpful. Thank u king!
Such awesome feedback! Thank you very much
I want to sell a few things on eBay as a casual seller, (not a big business), but the whole thing seems so much more complicated than I thought it would be. Now I’m intimidated by the whole thing.🤷🏽♀️😩🤦🏽♀️
It's less intimidating if you take it one step at a time. If you look at everything all at once, it can be intimidating.
Great teaching video.
I hope so. Hopefully those that really need it will find it. Thanks so much!

🎉 that’s all I need it to know thank so much and wish me luck and wish you and your family the best
YOU'VE GOT THIS!!!
Thanks! Trying to figure out the shipping is causing my hair to go gray and it also makes me say bad words. LOL
It can seem like a lot when you first get started. But, it gets easier with experience. You can do this.
If you are not using eBay global shipping program. Remember VOEC number on the outside of package. Then you will not have a problem with angry customers who have paid taxes twice..

Hi brother, I hope it’s OK that I send you a question here, I don’t know where else to turn. You’ve helped me so much so far in so many of your videos. I’ve been selling on eBay for about four weeks, and you are the inspiration that the Lord used to get me going. But now I have a problem. I sold a HP ink cartridge on eBay that I know it was brand new because it was my ink cartridge that I opened up to put in my printer and it was the wrong size. Walmart would not let me return because the box was open. I thought well I should sell it since it’s brand new just the box is open. Well it’s sold, and now the seller is saying that the ink cartridges were empty. And 0:31 wants his money back. I went ahead and authorized a label to have them ship it back but I know that he will just ship me his old cartridges. It’s not so much the money but I don’t want eBay to think that I’m trying to scam people by selling cartridges with no ink. Should I try to let them Know that he is scamming me? or do I just keep my mouth shut and give him a refund and go on?
This is a good question. If he sends you back an old empty cartridge, contact eBay. The bigger issue is making sure you protect your feedback. I'm sorry you're dealing with that. It won't be something you have to do all the time.
Thank you SO much for the kind words.
Do we create the account as a personal or a business account? This venture is so similar to a business so that part tripped me up! Thanks for the reply!
I started mine as a personal account. It doesn't matter to the IRS how you do it. Business or personal, it gets reported. So, I'd start it as personal and convert it later if you find a need for it.
Fantastic video! Thank you
Glad you liked it!
This new shipping policy thing with the new update has me so frustrated. It’s the worst part of the update. Im a pro shipper, my feedback speaks for itself and now I’m getting burnt on cost because of this update.
I create my own policy’s and delete almost all the others to minimize the list. Then none of the customs even show up when building the listing. It’s so dumb now. It’s cost me hours of time and now money trying to fix 600 listings to make sure it’s right.
Wouldn't it be interesting to see how many total hours resellers have to spend adjusting every single time eBay puts out an update?
@@TheChaChingKing Yea, then send ebay a bill for your time.
Sold a game and the listing had free shipping cause of this new update. I’m not gonna cancel the order tho, just gonna eat the shipping cost and move on hoping there isn’t anymore errors. Id feel like a dick messaging the buyer to tell him I can’t sell it. It was $0 investment like 90% of my items so it could of been a lot worse.
I 100% agree with you
Me again. I can't find the box link below? I know I could just type it in the search bar on Amazon, but I'd like to use your affiliate link. After all, you are giving us "free" advice. Also, for us newbies, could you do a video on what type of shipping you would choose for different items-like a USPS priority flat rate envelope versus a poly mailer? I know there are RUclipsrs who do live "list and ship" videos, but I don't have time to watch those as they are usually and hour or so long. I really like your style, quick and to the point.
You're right...it wasn't there. I have updated it. It should be at the bottom of the description now. You may have to refresh your browser. And...thanks! It's truly appreciated.
I'm trying to create a series of videos for beginners. I know that when I click on a tutorial, I usually opt for the shortest one...lol. So, I'm trying to cover the basics quick and painlessly.
@@TheChaChingKing Thank you!!!!!!
Due to the whole shipping, I am reluctant to start again, as I am in Europe, and I have not found any tutorials yet that are dealing with shipping from Europe. I am confused on a higher level:)
I wish I could help, but I really don't know anything about shipping in Europe. What country are you in?
Thank you so much.
I really appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Hey, Great video!! I have a question about returns since you list that you accept returns. What return address do you use if a customer wants to return the item? Do you use your home address, a UPS Store address, USPS, etc.? I find this part very confusing because I don't really want the customer to know exactly where I live for privacy purposes. Your help here will be GREATLY appreciated!! Thank you so much!
I use a PO Box. I don't use my home address for any of the stuff I ship for exactly the reasons you've mentioned.
Probably a stupid question, but do you include the weight of the box and stuffing that you put in the box to the total weight when shipping it out?
Yes. It needs to be the actual weight shipped. I include item, box, and packing.
Anyone else realize he is wearing a Mark Rober shirt?
LOL! You are actually one of only a few people who have noticed. Half my wardrobe is Mark Rober shirts.
I have a laptop computer and could not get my printer to connect. Which is a good printer in your opinion? I will be looking at some more of your series. Thank you!
A absolutely love my Rollo. There's a link in my description
First, Thank you so much for these videos.
Second, here is my problem. I am selling my comic book collection. I sold 89 comics to one person. All bag and boarded. The package weighed 19 pounds. I couldn't fit it all in a large priority box so the shipping was very expensive. $55 bucks at USPS. What would have been my best option at that point?
I would have used two large flat rate boxes. That would have made it $40. If the box was secure, you could have used Ground Advantage and it could have been cheaper.
Since I sell only comics, how much should use Ground Advantage (weight wise and price point wise) and when should I use Priority Mail Flat Rate envelopes?
I would imagine that they wouldn't weigh more than 8 ounces depending on the comic and how you package it. If I were to put the comic into an envelope, I'd make sure it's supported by cardboard or something. I wouldn't go to Priority myself until it was a pretty valuable comic book...say over $50. But that's truly a decision you'd need to make.
I use free shipping because I don’t like buyers that complain about shipping cost of pennies over.
That's a completely valid reason.
Hi
Thanks for the video
For the account opening on the website… is it personal acc or business? To get the boxes?
We just have a personal account for the USPS Priority shipping supplies.
If you don’t have the rolo, can you buy labels and print on regular printer? If so how do you know what size labels to buy?
The size will depend on your printer, but you can buy peel and stick labels for regular printers. I bought single sheet labels in the standard 8.5X11. It had two 4X6 labels on it.
What is Regional A box, I'm a retired Postmaster, we never used them, we had 1092, and Regular Flat Rates( Small Medium and Large) No Board game boxes or shoe boxes. I put Regional A into search box at USPS it came up )? Thanks Scott
It's an older video. Regional Rate A, my favorite priority box, is no more. 😞 It's been discontinued.
I wish I could get brave enough to start shipping. This video sure helps thanks
If I can do this, you can do this.
When creating a USPS account, should I choose personal account or business account?
Mine is just a personal account.
You are a GREAT teacher! Since Global Ebay shipping is shipped to Kentucky, can we use USPS Priority packaging for an International customer? How does using Flat Rate S&H prices work if the customer is international? Is there another table of prices for that? I just shipped my first sale in many years yesterday. If there are any problems, doesn't Ebay shipping alert you? (I'm asking because I got a text claiming it's from USPS saying the address is inaccurate but the item shows in transit on Ebay so I'm thinking the text is a hacker.)
The text sounds like a hacker to me, too. When you ship international through ebay, the buyer pays ebay for all of the shipping costs outside of the US. So you can use Ground Advantage or Priority. Ebay moved their international shipping to Illinois recently. EIS now instead of the global shipping program. For me, it's been better.
Thank you!
Firstly, thank you for the thorough explanation. Recently, I've already purchased polymailers because most or my items I will be selling are clothing pieces. Can I use my polymailers and still select priority/ flat rate shipping without using USPS packaging?
You can absolutely use your own packaging. That said, it's free to open a USPS account and then you can order FREE USPS Priority supplies. I use a lot of the padded flat rate envelopes from USPS.
@@TheChaChingKing ty for ur help!
Hi new subscriber here. Loving the info. Thank you.
Quick question... do you actually purchase the label from eBay? What is an average cost of doing so? Thanks so much!
Thanks! I do buy the label directly through ebay. First Class. Under 16 ounces, usually costs 5 or 6 dollars. Priority mail, 1 pound and over, starts at about $8 and goes...way...up
This was a greatly informative video have you done one on actually using ur Rollo printer? Can I hook it up to a laptop or do I need to have a desktop computer? Etc.
The Rollo will hook up to a laptop. The only trouble I've had is when I hooked it up to the new AMD Ryzen 5000 series chip set. That chipset needs a patch to connect to the Rollo. There is no patch as of last week. But VERY few laptops would have that processor.
I haven't done a Rollo specific video. I will say this, the Rollo customer service is very helpful if you ever need to contact them.
thanks for the video and all the information! has something changed with the regional rate boxes since making this video or maybe im just blind? haha cant seem to find any boxes that say "regional rate" on them and even when i search those keywords it comes up with no results.
Yep, you are correct. The post office has done away with the Regional Rate A and the Regional Rate B boxes. I really need to update this video! The platforms and post offices make changes faster than I can keep up. :-)
@@TheChaChingKing cool thanks!
I'm from Canada. So, is it completely different for me though? Do you know? Thanks!
It will be entirely different. :-( I don't know much about Canada post.

@@TheChaChingKing yes I just told my wife today that I’m getting one of them because I’ve been binge watching your videos lol. Your pleasant attitude and ways of explaining things makes me confident I can make a good at this so thank you. I was intimidated before I started watching
@@TheChaChingKing and based off your video about getting supplies from usps I already ordered my supplies
How would you ship something as delicate as a Christopher Radko ornament? I don't have the original box. I've just recently found your videos and have learned a lot. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I shipped a ton of ornaments this year. I wrapped them in soft tissue and put them in a small box. Packed with tissue where they couldn't jostle around. Then, I put that box in a larger box surrounded by at least 2 inches on each side with packing peanuts. I did not have a single ornament arrive broken.
@@TheChaChingKing It sounds like you have it figured out. Thanks for sharing your secrets!! I'll give it a go!!
can i pick up some of these shipping supplies from the local post office??
Oh, you bet. They usually have quite a few of them available.
Are your shipping price guidelines still accurate now that it's been a year? Thanks for the info, King!
They are probably a little shy now. I'd add a dollar to every First Class rate and $2 to each of the Priority...just as a rough guideline.
@@TheChaChingKing Thank you!
Silly Question here, but when creating the USPS account, we want to pick personal? I feel like free shipping supplies might be exclusive to business owners.
Nope. Mine is personal and I've had no issues getting supplies. You should be good.
@TheChaChingKing
Ok, thank you. Also, your step by step videos are very helpful for a technophobe like myself. 🙏
So just how do you set up your store's shipping rates, if not using calculated? How do we find how much Flat rate is for the various size pkgs? Could you explain using Regional A and B?
We sell a lot of clothing, so we have a really good idea what it'll cost to ship. The easiest way to see how much the flat rate boxes will cost to ship is to click on them the next time your shipping something. You don't have to purchase them in order to see what they would cost. So, for me, Regional Rate A is usually around $11.25 and it works well for a lot of things. A lot of it is just experience.
But in what cases does one use the regional boxes vs flat rate or reg priority ?
@@terrystexastreasures6809 Strictly by price. I often compare the different options when I'm shipping. If I have a very heavy item that will fit in a flat rate box, I am probably better off using that box. If it is relatively light weight, I may be better off to use a regular Priority box. For me, it just comes down to which one is the least expensive. It varies based on the item being shipped and its destination.
Used you affiliate link our digital scale recently bit the dust after 20 years! Needed a new one and that one was perfect! We have been using a vintage scale that I actually picked up to sell lol.
Is there a reason you don’t use calculated shipping? We do and it works for us but our items are already boxed when listed (we are committed to reusing boxes and shipping materials to lessen our impact on the earth though. We commonly ‘source’ our materials from the dumpsters of particular retail stores lol)
Before the new shipping options, the buyer had to wait to pay if you didn't put in a defined shipping cost. So, I got into the habit then. Keep in mind, not doing calculated shipping just because "we've always done it this way" is really a poor reason. The other reason is that, as I experiment with calculated shipping, the sales seem slower. I admit I haven't experimented enough to account for my own bias.
@@TheChaChingKing I completely get the ‘we’ve always done it that way’. Those of us who have been around for a while got pretty good at knowing what an item will ship for. I can estimate pretty much on target but the rates keep rising with USPS!!!
I've sold items posted with USPS media mail shipping offered (Items which fit the category descriptions), and the customer buys the item changes the USPS media to First Class Mail and gets charged for USPS media mail rates which is less than I pay when the shipping label is purchased. Why and how does this happen?
I have no idea. The buyer can sometimes request a different shipping method and sometimes it seems that eBay puts something different on there when I'm buying my label. But I always change it back to shipping method I offered with the item if I didn't specify choices. When a different method is used, it charges me for it.
Effective January 22, 2023, Regional Rate Box pricing has been discontinued. What is your next choice?
I know. :-( I used the Regional Rate A ALL THE TIME. So far, I've just being using the weight and dimensions. I will probably check out Pirate Ship again and make sure their cubic rates aren't a better price.
Question friend. Are you locked into the shipping choice when you choose at listing time when the item is sold. I had an item sell that was under an oz, I had picked ground advantage out of ignorance when I listed. When it sold I wanted to do standard envelop and it said I couldnt?
It probably didn't let you because the category your item was listed in didn't qualify. The Standard Envelope service has some limitations that other services don'thave. And, anytime you choose a service you didn't have, make sure you aren't downgrading the shipping. That's an easy way to get an unhappy customer. But, you aren't automatically barred from choosing a different service when you go to ship your item.
Thanks ChaChing King!! You have taught me so much in just under a week I got my first sale. I'm so excited to do this!! #RibResale
how do you know what zone? I don't see ZONE A, I see zone 1,2,3 etc,. Also, the difference between retail and commercial.
When you buy your label through eBay, you're getting a rate that they've negotiated with the post office. That is similar to commercial rates. It's almost always a far better deal than buying a label at the post office counter. Buying it at the counter is a retail rate. The zones on the map are 1, 2, 3... as you've pointed out. I probably just misspoke.
@TheChaChingKing one more if you don't mind...when you weigh a package is it just the item or the item and package combined? Thanks
I'm learning so much from your videos. I'm wondering if you have a video on exactly how to list and ship authentic sneakers. I'm confused on shipping.
Do you charge twice for shipping? Because first the item ships to the authenticator, then the authenticator ships to the buyer.
Also, does the tracking receipt automatically go to ebay from the post office, or does the seller have to scan it to ebay?
Then there's a time frame. Omg! What if I don't get to the po on time? I work full time. It's recommended to ship same day. I only have time to list and sell one thing at a time, seems like.
I really need to get started listing, but this is really confusing me.
I haven't created one specifically for shoes that go through the authentication program. But I can try and answer the questions. You do not charge twice for shipping. Part of that service for the customer is the shipping cost from the authentication center to the buyer. When you ship through eBay, all the tracking numbers are uploaded automatically. If there's a chance you can't ship everyday, just set your shipping time to two or even three days. You're better off to ship less frequently than you are to ship late. As far as the time it takes to go through the whole process, the buyer expects that knowing it has a layover at the authentication center (or they should). Expected delivery times are automatically extended. Further, once it gets to the authentication center safely, when it ships on to the customer, eBay is then responsible for it making it to them.
I hope that helps a little!
@ChaChingKing thanks so much
Hello again, what If it's below a pound like 10 ounces instead of 1.16?
If it's under a pound, I would ship it First Class.
HELP! I mistakenly did something on my PC and I can't get my shipping settings back to USPS/default mode...can you give me a walkthrough on how to get it back?
Mine always defaults to the last one I listed with. That's not what yours is doing? I'll have to look into it and see. I don't know off hand.
@@TheChaChingKing I was able to make shipping policies so I think I'm good! Thanx as always!
Does this include international shipping or just American? Also do you ship outside the US?
Most of this was for US domestic shipping. I do sell internationally, but I use the Ebay International Shipping program. SO, in effect, I just ship my package to an eBay hub and they do the international shipping from there.
@@TheChaChingKing oh how do you go about that?
@@nicnac1 On your seller hub there is a section titles "Shortcuts." In that section you should see "Site preferences." Click on that. On the left side, under SELLING, you should see "Shipping preferences." Click on that. Then, you can opt in or out in that top section.
Only thing stoping me atm is trying to figure out if I need a resellers license to sell on eBay and sales tax and all that hard to find info
While your locale may require something different, I don't need a license to sell on eBay. eBay takes care of all of the sales tax collection, paying and reporting. I do have a sales tax exemption I have to turn in. But, since all of my sales are online, I don't have anything to report other than what eBay does. Part of eBay's fees covers the collection and reporting of sales tax. Every time anyone fuses about eBay fees I consider them cheap because I'm not messing with sales taxes in 50 different states.
@@TheChaChingKing thank you I think eBay takes care of it for me in my state
Why do I need to buy poly mailers if there is a padded flat rate envelope for free by USPS? Are the size dimensions different?
Good question! You can't use the padded flat rate envelope for anything other than Priority mail. So, if you were trying to save money and Ground Advantage was a cheaper option, you'd need your own poly mailer.
@@TheChaChingKing okay. Thank you foe the response I appreciate it
Can you also order free shipping label from USPS?
Not that I'm aware of. The free supplies are for Priority Mail. But there are no free shipping labels that I'm aware of.
Do I set up my USPS account as a personal or business? Thank you 🙏
I'd do personal. You can always convert it later if you choose to.

How do i go about getting thw shipping label if i dont have a printer? I just sold my first item not knowing theyd surprise me and with a time limit to ship it. I gotta send a video game out in 2 days

@@TheChaChingKing thank you so much

Im using calculated shipping, if the shipping price appearce greater from somone who lives somewhere very very far from me the shipping fee will appear more from their perspective, but if somone lives not that far it will appear cheaper for them? If so what price do I put for calculated shipping, kinda having a hard time. I don't wanna price my shipping at 8.99 if somone very far away buys it thus doubling the amount I'd have to ship. If that makes sense.
If you use calculated shipping, you don't enter a price at all. Ebay will charge them based on the weight and dimensions you enter. It will automatically charge them more if they live further away from you.
Hope that helps!
Thank you for the great video! Just started selling again on Ebay and the post office is giving me a hard time about scanning multiple packages (even though I've only had maybe 5 or 6 at time). Can you tell me how to print one label for them to scan? Is this possible to do after already have purchased all the labels? Thank you!
While i don't have to print a scan sheet for my post office, I don't think you can do it if you've already purchased your labels. But I'm not 100% sure of that. I think you print it from the bulk shipping label section before you purchase and print. Again, I'm not entirely sure because I don't do it that way.
@@TheChaChingKing Thank you, I did see that in the bulk shipping section, I'll have to try that next time!
Can the padded flatrate envelope be used instead of poly bags?
Absolutely. I order the padded flat rate mailers by the hundreds. Keep in mind, you can ONLY use them to ship priority mail. And, it can cost more than Ground Advantage. For us, I think the padded flat rate just went up to $9.30 plus the eBay fees. So, we usually charge $9.99 and figure that's close enough right now.
@TheChaChingKing
Ok, good to know. Trying to save as much as possible until I can afford to invest. Thanks 👍
Iirc from one of your shipping videos, might even be this one. The ground advantage is for items 1lb or less, and priority is for everything else?
I'm living in Canada, started a eBay business and I'm struggling with shipping! Could you help? I followed your videos but I'm getting like 20$ on shipping on a shirt in Canada. Also would you suggest international shipping when starting out?
Ugh...Canada probably gets the worst deal of any country outside the US on shipping. Yes, you will probably want global shipping on to expand you customer base. To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a work around for the cost of shipping to the US. Unless you live close enough to the border to ship from a US address, it's going to cost more. As far as shipping within Canada, I just have no experience with it. You will probably get more help by looking for Canadian eBay sellers to see what they are doing.
I'm truly sorry I couldn't be more help.
@@TheChaChingKing Thanks for your reply! Yes we have high shipping prices that's for sure. I'm a new viewer and been loving your videos!
Does usp pick up my over 1 pound package from the post office?? Do I get to choose who delivers?
Usps, United States Postal Service, does pick up packages over 1 pound. That service is usually Priority Mail. If you take it to the post office, only the post office can deliver it. You can choose when you buy the label if you want another carrier
