I tried out Sendle this weekend since they had a Black Friday promo for $1 per label (I paid $9 for about $55 worth of labels). They use tiers like Mercari. I ship 99% through Pirateship but this will be good for things going across the country. (Over 1lb up to 5lbs is $7.89) Just thought I’d give my experience in case anyone is wanting to try them out. The labels are format for label printers but you can download and re-format for printer labels or just print on the middle of regular paper. It pulls in the buyers email address and sends them tracking info which I don’t care for. I deleted theirs and entered mine. It also uploads their tracking number to eBay which might confuse buyers so after printing the labels I went back to edit tracking and scanned the USPS tracking barcode with my phone. You could type it in you like. If Sendle was more common I wouldn’t bother but they’re an Australian company and their site might make a buyer wonder where their item is really coming from. I think that those extra steps are worth it for occasional items that will save several dollars and totally worth it for the $1 promotion. It’s also free to use.

I ship so many 4-5 lb items, that would be handy!

I still can’t believe the promo for $1 labels was legit. I wish I had heavier sales this weekend! I’m definitely going to keep my eye out for any future deals like that.

I have something being shipped to me via Sendle, which I had never heard of (I thought) so I googled it saw it was an Australian company. As kat predicted, it definitely made me wonder if I had purchased from Australia without realizing it, but it's coming from California. They have a flat rate across the country, and their lowest fee is $3.20, but I can't tell without signing up how many ounces that goes up to. They have a minimum of 20 packages per month requirement to use them. I purchased on Tuesday, and the package is guaranteed delivery by Monday from California to Ohio. I searched on here to see if it had ever been discussed and found this thread so resurrected it to remind everyone Sendle is available.
