Why does eBay let me set up for lettermail but PayPal doesn't allow me to create the shipping label.

I'm changing the way I sell on eBay to accommodate for Canada Posts losing ways. Now I'm finding some road blocks. Ebay lets me set up for the lettermail in the create your listings but upon printing in PayPal (select your service) it only gives out three options. All very expensive. Is there something that I can do to print lettermail being shipped in Canada to Canadians through PayPal shipping label printing.

Thanks,

Jeff

paypal shipping doesn't offer a letter mail option.

 

You either buy stamps or take the item to the Post Office.

Canada Post has this neat solution.

At POs you can buy prepaid gummed labels in various denominations. When you calculate the amount you need, you can affix the correct amount in those gummed labels.

If you buy before December 31, you can get certain labels that will actually be worth MORE in the New Year.

 

Just ask the clerk about "stamps".

jeff, I am having the exact same issue as a new seller. If I take envelope to post office, and send as lettermail, is it OK ? ( it should be as this is the only option I have)

 

How did you tackle your problem ? Did you not print label from paypal ??
