You can send books media mail no matter where they are listed as long as they qualify as Media (ZERO ADS INSIDE). All you have to do is either a). wrap it and have it ready to ship when you get to the post office and tell them you need to send it media, or b). use pirate ship or another method to purchase a shipping tag outside of E-bay. If the item has ads (even expired ones), or is a catalog, etc ... it is NOT media and you can get in trouble for trying to send it media. Otherwise, there is no issue at all. *VERY IMPORTANT = If you buy media mail postage on another site or at the post office .... you still MUST enter the tracking info QUICKLY after sending the item out.

I get confused and upset when the specifics have NOTHING to do with the item, yet the answer field will not allow the truth of the item - like None, N/A, Missing, Does not apply, etc. It makes both eBay and the seller look foolish and I feel that a disclaimer must be made in such circumstances explaining this error. It' is simply stupid. For instance - anyone familiar with music media, knows an "inlay" refers to the tray-art inserts, (both upper and lower) of a CD. Records and tapes do not have "inlays" by manufacturer design. Yet, when this field appears, one is not allowed to enter an answer that is not already in the drop-down. Hence, making an entry here is an invitation for a buyer to make a return and have a bad buying experience as this forces the seller to lie in the listing by saying something is included and has a condition (Very-Good for instance) when it does not exist, never has and never will. Other categories often have the same nonsense. Can you or anyone please explain this? I have brought this to their attention and get ignored.
Thanks for watching and asking. I agree. There are some items specifics that have nothing to do with the item. You just pointed out one of them. To be honest I don't know what the answer is with the inlay question.
When a seller loses the money and the item, often they have a no return policy. When an item is marked as 'no returns accepted' that means the seller does not want the item back. So eBay respects this decision.
Well, I don't think this is correct. I think an item marked no returns by the seller means the seller is stating the buyer cannot return it. The buyer can return it. eBay will allow them to and the seller will have to accept it. Thanks for watching.
Haha. Nope, not sponsored by them. I just have made hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years because they give me the privilege of selling on their platform.
6:45 they could just purchase the label for media mail at the post office and then upload the tracking number.
They could. But that's a lot of work. I hate my post office.

Well... I don't go to the post office. I have the worst post office in the world. My mailman picks up all of my items where I work.

no worries ... mainly trying to bump your views, and comment on things that may be nice to know in the process
@@aeioufromebay Thanks for that. I appreciate it.
Do you ever say which FB Groups you are in ?
I am in a lot of them, but generally only read.
The thrifting lounge, eBay thrifters, thrifter and reseller world,.
Nice 👍✨
Thanks ✌
Ebay just sucks. Its got to the stage where it is just too hard, especially postage, which just doesn't work
You've got to put in the time to study how to sell on eBay. If you don't understand shipping, you just haven't put in the time to learn it.

You seem to be an advocate for ebay. They make it too hard, why do you just defend ebay? You must be sponsored by them.
