eBay help!

[cnshockey]

As some of you know, I sold some cards on eBay. Problem is now that I'm trying to print the shipping labels, it won't let me because I need a credit card or bank account. Apparently when I set up my paypal account I just put my last name as one letter and now I can't change that and this is forcing me to not be able to add a credit card or bank account. So what do I do? Do I just throw stamps on the cards and hope they don't claim they didn't get them? Is there any way I can safely avoid going to the post office? I don't really have the time to do that. any help here???

try and contact paypal on the phone they will give you a pass word online and you will have to let them know what it is and they might be able to change it that way not sure but it is worth a try

To change your name you have to show them like your license, a bill, bank statement, etc. No way am I doing that. Any other ways?

Most stuff I've sold, I never use paypal lables, never go to the post office. $1.22 to mail a bubble mailer with a couple of cards, in Canada, and I double it going to the USA.

Never had a problem yet.

Never used this too, just take the amount of stamps you need and everything's gonna be ok.

This makes me feel a lot better. I'll probably just throw stamps on like I normally do then. Hopefully I don't lose any of this money because all of it is going to my survival at college next year lol.

Yeah. Saying that (I don't want to misrepresent anything here) I have barely enough sales on eBay to get a detailed rating (maybe 23, total?)

All but two of those are transactions under $30. I did ship with signature on the other two (they were over $200 per transaction).

I don't know how much you made.... so I don't want to tell you what to do. Most people are honest, and I didn't have much fear. On big sales though, I made sure to cover my butt.

Biggest sale is like $35 shipped. I'll tell you a definitive number of what I made after I get all the paypal in from all 15 cards. Should total $150+

But yeah...I think I'll just ship with stamps. Thanks Sean and nic for helping to ease some fear lol

But if you have to ship something with tracking/express, someone said me it was cheaper if you use the paypal shipping thing then going at the post office ... not sure if it's true, but I heard this.

I think it is. Not going to use tracking on any of them. Most expensive one was $35 dlvd. Thanks though
