Hi All,

Just curious...has anyone contacted PayPal regarding PayPal Shipping being down? I have some packages to mail before I leave and am hoping that it will be up and running before then!

Thanks for any info!

I just tried printing one of the labels that I need to go to Poland and this is what I get:

We are not able to generate your label at this time. Your PayPal account was not charged. Please try again later.

PayPal Shipping is not available. We apologize for the inconvenience.


If they can't generate the label at this time...it would be nice if they would at least let you know BEFORE you fill in all of the information! I guess I'll just have to ship via Canada Post, nothing more that I can do.

THANKS!

I get that sometimes, but I just try again and it usually works.

Hi Loré,

I've tried since Friday afternoon and can not get PayPal shipping to work.

Do I need to call them?

Do they have something against mailing to Poland?

Just curious!

I can use Canada Post's website, but it is much easier with PayPal now that Bernie and Colleen have me hooked on it.

Susan,

It is usually because one of your address lines exceeds 40 characters.

Break it down and it will work.

Just got back from two 3-day internet marketing seminars for unemployed loggers, sponsored with federal grants. What a piece of work 🙂

"Excuse me, what is a browser?". "I don't have an internet connection. Can I still do this". "There is no way I will check email more than once a week".

And the same group now wants to book a "how to be successful on eBay" seminar!

Wine will numb my pain... 😄

THANKS, BERNIE!

Why doesn't PayPal JUST SAY THAT! They alert a shipper to any other errors!

This is the way I ended up putting the address:

Sikorskiego 50a
Stargard Szczeciński
73110 Zachodniopomorskie
Poland

Our twins said that they were glad that they didn't live in the province of Zachodniopomorskie because they NEVER would have gotten a perfect spelling grade!

Looks like you were busy with the loggers and the internet! Good for you! And, hopefully they listened attentively to you!

I sent an e-mail to you and Xena just a bit ago...regarding the shipping problem, but also included a few photos of our youngest babe.

We were busy with skating this weekend as you can tell.

Again...your wisdom is most appreciated!

Have some wine...relax and enjoy!
