First time? or multiple times?

if you print shipping label on Ebay,it should be marked shipped.

I have maybe forgot once before.

I do UK stamps so eBay shipping labels not necessary. Have always marked orders as dispatched manually. Its a lot cheaper for the products I sell.

I use stamps as well ,makes no sense to pay tracking for low price items,if they file INR,then block them

You may get a late shipping mark against your metrics which you can appeal but do not place much hope on it. If you have done it before in the previous 6 months it might push your account over to below average which may effect your listings appearing high in searches.

As far as I know marking it as shipped makes no difference unless you have tracking to upload. Without tracking it's only marked as late if a buyer reports it as late

As degsey mentioned above, it does make a difference. Do it too often and you'll find your account dropping to 'below average' which will impact visibility as, for example, your promoted listing would be suspended.

The odd time doesn't matter but I would try to avoid it. A big red 'dispatch overdue' is not what I wanna see lol

What also effects you if you fail to put tracking in is if the buyer marks you down for arrival time of the product in the feedback.
