I've never used the postage feature on paypal. Is it easy to use? Is it better or worse then using USPS online postage? Are all the same features available like on USPS (various size boxes etc)?

I have always used USPS when shipping priority flat rate packages...didn't know if you can use them via paypal?

Thanks - Barb/frugalfabrics

I have been using PayPal to print postage for awhile now. It is very easy. They do require that you get delivery confirmation on every order. No big deal to me, as I usually want it.

It is very easy to use with the Priority mailers. It is basically the same as going through the USPS site. You get a small savings by printing priority postage online, too.

You can also do this for UPS and FedEx as well.

I ship most things through Paypal and it's so easy! Delivery confirmation is free and you can ship First Class, which is not available on the USPS website. I have an account there also and can only ship Priority or Express.

I love shipping using the feature through PayPal - it keeps me from having to go to the post office and the shipping rates are a little less :)
