Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

I'm not able to purchase Etsy labels. Happened yesterday around the same time too.

I've tried in both Chrome & Safari.

 

Is there a work around anyone knows about?

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

Just saw this Thread from yesterday.  Sellers are still having trouble today.  I hope Etsy makes an Announcement about this and it gets fixed soon.

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

I mentioned this in the other recent post on this topic. I don't know of a workaround for Etsy but there is an easy workaround if you go to Pirateship. Here's my post from the other thread with some additional information for clarity.

"I use Pirateship for all my shipping labels, it's free to use, has the same discounted rates as Etsy and you can import all your Etsy sales there. With the import button your package information on each order is automatically transferred and the tracking number is input for you on your Etsy sales order, the order will move to your Completed folder on Etsy, the same as it would if using Etsy labels.

Good to know, I might need to use this if the problem isn't fixed in the next little bit. Thank you

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

I can get it to work just closing and opening the buy shipping label window a few times. Can’t do a bunch of things in a row. One at a time, close open windows between each label print. I’m on Chrome.

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

what do you mean by opening the buy shipping label window and few time?  I have over 60 labels to print.  Really hoping to find a work around.  Can you explain a little bit more detail how you're getting it to work?

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

Its not an amazing solution however, I have found a workaround. Press the 'truck' button to get the shipping label --> nothing will happen.  Then after press the refresh button on internet browser (I am using Chrome) and wait a few seconds the box will pop up. I have to do this for every label but it does work and I am able to get my shipping done.

The other thing that fixed my problem was unplugging my label printer (Dymo Labelwriter 4XL) and letting it sit for 10 minutes. I unplugged it from the power and the computer. Now, my labels are printing just fine.

Same for me as well--yesterday and today both buttons for getting shipping labels is not working. I have just had to use Shippo instead, which tends to have cheaper rates for USPS than Etsy labels.

Use shipstation. For that many orders after you get it setup will be a huge time saver.

Re: Can't Purchase Shipping Labels

My issue is I'm unable to click on the "view purchased labels" button. Is this also not working?
