Has anyone used Etsy postage labels from USPS?

[Former_Member]

Has anyone used the Etsy postage service? I am wary, only because I usually pay $2.07 for shipping a 2-3 oz package, and 97 cents for Tracking - when I calculate with Etsy, it comes to $1.69! If that's true, fantastic, I can lower my shipping....but what if it isn't delivered because you can't choose between thick envelope or package?????

Help, ANYONE!

I use them all the time. Online rates are cheaper. Everything that you send via these labels has to be thick envelope or package. Thick envelope would be like greeting cards, ribbons mailed in an envelope. Package would be a very very thick envelope or a box. Hope that helps. The rates ARE for real

Every single day, I use them, and I've never had a problem with the packages not getting there. The Etsy shipping is powered by Endicia, which is a well known online postage site. You'll be fine - I ship soaps and lotions and purses and jewelry every day using Etsy Shipping.

I always use them! I love that I can purchase discounted insurance.

Absolutely. It saves time and money.

I used them too - love it! Very convenient and saves money.

I use the Package/Thick Envelope option for a padded 6 x 9 envelope all the time . For 2 ounces, it cost $1.69 with free delivery confirmation. Can't beat that price. : )

Since Etsy can offer commercial rates, it'll save you money. Plus you can't beat the convenience!

They are all that I use now. So easy, cheap and convenient. You can use them for international orders too and it does most of the customs stuff for you. No more having to stand in line at the Post Office!

That's all I use for both domestic and international shipping. It's so easy and convenient. No more post office for me!!

I purchase all my postage online, either through Etsy or Paypal.

If you purchase postage online you pay the commercial rate which is generally much less than the counter rate at the post office.

I use Etsy or Paypal for all my shipping postage. The rates are 'real' and tracking numbers both for US shipping and foreign are automatically included in the notification the customer receives and on your Sold order screen.

Etsy makes it much quicker to bag things up and get them out the door! I can't believe how much time.

Go for it and if you have any questions, just let me know.

I've shipped HUNDREDS of packages (mostly USPS priority mail) using Etsy labels. Love it!!! Get over the hump and try it. You'll like it. :)

I only ship through Etsy, or on a rare occasion through Paypal. I've never had a problem, and it is just so darn convenient! Plus more inexpensive. Win-win!

[PiecesOfMePaperCraft]

I sell cards and paper crafts and I use Etsy shipping exclusively. First class packages up to 3 oz. are $1.69 and include tracking info (which Etsy automatically emails to your buyer).

Love my Etsy labels. I can put packages in my mail box to be picked up by my mail man order drop them off if I am running errands. love love love!

[Former_Member]

Etsy and Paypal labels are considered commercial price so it's discounted. It's much cheaper than the Postal Counter and you get FREE tracking!

You should definitely print Etsy or paypal labels. It saves you so much time. You don't need to wait in line. Even if you drop off your package you can drop it off at the closed counter and they will take care of it.

[Former_Member]

Yup. . .$1.69!

Can't beat that!

I use them always! They are super convenient and they make shipping simple
