REEN... Ebay does NOT include $50 Insurance or tracking.. The USPS provides those services..You are still shipping with USPS ..by way of E-bay. That’s all. That insurance and tracking is through the USPS. If you have a claim, you don’t notify E-bay, you file the ins. claim with USPS.. If you are trying to locate a package, Ebay doesn’t know where it is.. USPS does ! And you are forced to pay for the shipping with PayPal ! So, by going through the USPS web site to print shipping labels, I am by-passing the middle man... Ebay /PayPal ! ..And I HATE PAYPAL ! Only have the account because Ebay forced people to have one.. And that is a crime ! A REAL Crime ! No other site forces it’s clients to only use “their” payment plan. You are free to use whatever credit card or debit card you want. I never leave any money in my PayPal account. As soon as a buyer pays, I transfer the money to a special account that I only use for PayPal, and then I withdraw the money from that account . My shipping with the USPS is paid on a separate debit card on file with the USPS.
I know the pros and cons of PayPal, etc. have been tossed around for several years, so I am really not trying to open that can of worms again. It’s too bad no one was able to stand up and fight E-bay on the whole PayPal scam.. and that is what it is ! A scam ! They’ve even got us paying them a fee for shipping a box with the USPS ! That is a total scam !
Off to PO to ship these two boxes. Web site is still not functioning properly and I can’t print a label. Can’t print with Ebay either, because there is only $10 left in my PayPal account.( I transferred it out ) . and E-bay wants money ( PayPAL AND THEIR FEE) for me to print a label with them !
