How to get cheap tracking numbers for digital items?
 

I am planning to sell some digital items on eBay.
My questions is how or where can i get some cheap empty letters to be delivered to the address with tracking number in US or UK?
I am not on any of these countries, so i can't just go to post office and put them.
Also I am under 21 days holds and fast shipping will get my money sooner.
I know eBay does not like digital items, that's another reason for shipping.
Any information will help me alot. Thank you!

Cheapest thing to do would be hire an assistant in the US or UK to fill those envelopes with the code you're selling so the digital item ships with tracking.

Otherwise you'd be paying a mail forwarding company to get tracking numbers which would cost more I would think.

With tracking number is going to cost a bit in the US and UK though, as well

Realistic estimate for US shipping with tracking : $2.66 - $3.09 per shipment depending on what part of the country it's going to + $.50-$1 paid to whoever is printing labels for you for their work.

Letters don't ship with tracking in USA, so the First Class parcel rate above is the cheapest option with tracking.

As the others have said your only real option is to use someone local in the US and UK. When I’m away from the UK I use a guy who charges me £3.50 per letter

PharOrz,
BTW,I tried shipping first class USPS overseas envelope and see if USPS will turn it into USPS priority,well no such thing.
But lukcy me,so far buyer has not complained.
it has saved me almost 10 dollars in shipping,I may try it again depend on the country.

Easy money to be made on class choice by int'l buyers and downgrading. Also giving a priority mail upgrade option for packages that would ship priority anyway.

You wouldn't know unless the shipment was returned to you because tracking stays the same for the whole journey. It's happening but it's not available for everyone. I'll upload a pic the next time we get a returned undelivered USPS Int'l Flat shipment.

I'm only able to print that kind of postage on 2 of my 3 stamps.com accounts so I guess you have to be let in.

Re: How to get cheap tracking numbers for digital items?
 

OP did not say how much $ he is selling his digital goods for?
Some are sold for 99 cents
