Anyone ship with amazon before? help me lol

So its ben awhile since I sold on amazon and now you can buy shipping through them?

how does that even work? you print out the label I know that but what does that do? you tape it to a box? so do you need a shipping container? and it says they pick it up. I dont understand that iether.

Is it just a cluster fuck and a headache or is it worth it?
sounds to screwy so im probly just going to go to the postal place tomorow and ship.

And should I just mark the items as shipped before I go ship them? I dont want to go ship and item and come home to see they canceled the order as I was shipping it.
I know you can cancell and order on amazon before it ships so thats kinda a concern of mine.

 

i'd go to the postal place if it's convenient, they'd be able to help you.

 

Yea im talking to my freind on xbl and he says thats the cheapest way.

 

Don't know about US, but in UK you just go down to the post office, it's the most convenient way

 

Does anyone happen to know what size padded envelopes fit
Nintendo 64 games:
nintendo ds games(with case)
xbox 360 games (with case)
Snes games:

 

The post office will have a set-up area where they have all the different envelopes and boxes for you to use. No matter what, make sure you spend the little extra bit of cash to get a tracking number. It's definitely worth it.

 

When I sell on ebay I just go to the post office. Easiest way in my opinion.

 

Go to USPS, and use flat rate boxes.

That's your cheapest bet for shipping nearly anything.

 

I heard its cheapest to buy the padded envelopes at the dollar store or buy bulk on ebay and then ship? is flat rate better?

 

If you are just shipping games that should be fine, but anything larger than that go wit the boxes.

 

So basicly buy padded envolopes for n64 and super nintendo cartidges and just buy flat rate boxes for anything else? would a ds game case fit in a padded envelope?

someone should make a damn guide for this lol im sure I cant be the only one who thought shipping was simpler. not that its not easy.

Im going to bring my shit and go figure it out tomorow wish the post office wasnt closed on sundays 0_o thnx for the help everyone

 

I'm probably a bit late but, by the time you've payed for all the different envelopes to get sent, you might aswell buy a box and put it all in there. Not sure prices though so you will have to find that out

 

Im shipping like 7 n64 games all to differant locations probly shoulda mentioned that my bad.

 

Do NOT buy padded envelopes in the post office, they are overpriced as fuck. Find them in office supply stores. I bought mine in bulk on ebay, paid about $0.10 per padded envelope.

 

Lol my gf was on her period so I just bought the envelopes I needed to day at the post office. 1.50 per envelope and like 1.88 for shipping. Wasnt to bad but im definitely going to buy padded envelopes somewhere else. Does anybody know the size padded envelopes I would want on ebay? mainly for n64 and snes games.
