Hello, Papaw. Go to one of your sold listings on ebay, look for the Order Details, or just find a sold item in your Feedback under account details.Choose Click Print Another Label, (I believe under other actions)  and then Edit. You can then change the address, and then change weight & dimensions. This will also give you a choice of shipping options, and if the price is right you can print the edited label, get your ebay shipping discount, and the label fee will come out of your Paypal account. I use this quite often for shipping to out of town family members, the rate is usually much lower than retail, and for what you have I would try Parcel Select. Regards, Lou

Wow Lou!  I didn't realize that  we could do that.  I will be shipping a larger Priority Mail package in a week or two and that will save me a dollar or two.

I have done that. I also use the Regional rate boxes when possible. Same as Flat Rate, but cheaper.

So here is probably the only snag with using eBay to print a shipping label.  I selected a sold item and selected "Print another label".  After editing the shipping address I went to insure the package.  I am insuring the box for $300.  You can only insure for the value of that original item.  Since I haven't sold any $300 dollar items I can't insure it for the correct amount.  I had to ship via my own USPS account, but it was only about a buck and a half difference.
