Question on eBay shipping....

[jack702]

What is the ~BEST~ option for shipping? I will be running 3-5 stealth accounts. Don't think I will need more than 5 ever.

Is it possible while starting off slow to just use ebay shipping? IF I manually change the "return address" in ebay while printing labels, would that cause issues and link me??

I want to run 3-5 stealths but have 1 return address.

Is stamps.com shipping prices equal or better than the rate we get through eBay?

Shipstation or Stamps.com?

Sorry just so much to go through and so little time. Want to make sure I do things right the FIRST time.

Personally, i just change the "Ship From" Zip code, and tell anyone that needs to return anything to Request RMA and give "My Shippers Address" for the return to go to. If its a low dollar item i just give a partial or full refund, eat the loss, and keep on trucking. It doesn't do any good to have a "i am going to win mentality" because in the long run i usually wont in one form or another. Just stroke the buyer and make them happily go away. Oh, did i mention the Blocked Bidders/Buyers List. Very useful once everyone is happy.

yes but some buyers are just rude every once in awhile.

They return without even asking, they sometimes just flat out refuse packages. and then sometimes the buyers address is "undeliverable" and comes back to me.

Just too many instances where I need the package coming back to the right address. Can't always rely on RMA and buyer to do the correct thing.

Use stamps.com or something similar....you can enter your return address in the shipping label.

Okay and stamps.com doesn't share info with ebay etc?

Is stamps.com better than shipstation?

I've never used either and usually just printed labels through eBay, but now looks like I have to change that.

Shipstation uses stamps.com

If you just use tamps, you have to manually load the tracking numbers.
