Before posting, tried to search for anything related to shipping could not find it soooo here I go!
I have 4 stealth accounts, just want to know how do you guys ship?
I ship fairly small packages and lightweight so I know USPS is my way to go. (13oz and less)
I heard of Stamps.com, but does that cause linking and can it be used for multiple eBay accounts?
Those are the only questions for now :P
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
You ship the same as I do, hardly ever ship anything over 13 oz. I use multi-order shipping in paypal on all my accounts and no it's never linked me.
If you need a real return address you can make another label yourself and paste it over the return address of the paypal label (upper left hand corner of the label).

I ship on multiple accounts and never an issue other then when I dump the boxes at the clerks desk or in the hopper.
I have been asked a few times by the clerks at the PO why I am shipping so many boxes with different names.
Has to think quick and told them I am an ebay trading assistant and sell for many people as most older people do not want to list their items on ebay so I do it for them for a fee.

One more question, how big is the label that you paste over the shipping label? (your address)
and this doesn't cause suspicion to USPS?
Mine are about 1 inch long by half an inch wide, wouldn't know if it causes suspicion I never see them always throw all my packages down the mail shoot. I usually only do that on an occasional package that's too big to go down the shoot so I have it picked up. Everything else goes down the shoot with addresses from all over the US.

Lol any usps mailbox or door on the wall that opens up in an angle at any post office that you put mail through lol.
I see, yeah I googled it and had no resort, xD I usually take them at the back of the USPS location though, they told me I have too much shipment to just let it sit at the front. My boxes are 8x8x4 and so I have to place it in a basket at the back lol
That is why I asked. I found return labels at amazon, 0.5 x 1.75 Inches, you think thats good?
I don't know how big your labels are but any size will work you don't need to cover the address you can just get marker and write your return address on the package or just leave it like it is like I do most of the time and just email the customer your address, just do whatevers easiest, it's not that big a deal.
Just a quick question. Can I use this multi order shipping option with UK paypal. I am also spending a lot of time printing off single address labels from paypal. Surely there is a quicker way to do this? Is this function only available with US paypal?
this is what i do to all my accounts when i ship. i use CutePDF (its a program that when you print it saves to a PDF file) than i open Acrobat Pro edit the "From" part to my real shipping info.

But doesn't that still take ages to do this for each shipping label. Isn't there some program that will just import all the printing labels so you can multi print in one go?

only takes me less then 2 mins to do all my orders something longer if i have huge orders, all i do is merge all the PDF files into one file and copy paste.

Sounds like you have got it sorted. Could you please give me some pointers to exactly how you do this? Please Pm if you wish. I have currently spent all morning just printing off all my paypal shipping labels!! I would be grateful if you had any tips on how you do this. Thanks.
AyeDGAF - could you let me know in more detail how you do this. I would be grateful to receive some more tips. Do you import addresses from Paypal into a PDF file?
