Using paypal for returns.

When a return is needed the best way is to print a label online. There are many home bound people that can not get to the post office. Or people that just dont have time to stand in line. You could go to the USPS website! Unfortunately USPS only offers Priority mail on their website.

There are other ways to select first class mail. If you do not already use Stamps.com or Endicia for your mailings you can use paypal. How?

99% of buyers have a paypal account and dont realize they can create a label using it. There is a special link and you cant find it easily on the website.

Why spend $5 to ship an item priority mail when you can ship it first class and spend under $3, depending on weight. Remember first class is 13 ounces and under.

I had a buyer complain they did just that, I spent $1.75 sending it to them they spent $5 returning it and wanted me (the seller) to refund the shipping fees. I explained you can not get refunded more then what you paid out even before they filed a claim to return the item.

If you buy an item for a total of $8 why would you want to spend $5 to return it?

You have to be logged into Paypal and use this link:

Once in there all you need to enter is the address you are sending it to along with the weight. It helps if you have a scale, if you do not check the label that you received the package in. I recommend turning the poly bag inside out and checking the weight which should be listed at the top of the label. No need to buy a poly bag! No guessing!

Youll get delivery confirmation as well, print out the label - tape it to the package and drop it in the mailbox and await your refund!

Simple, easy and low priced!
