PayPal + First Class International Shipping?

posted 2 months ago by matt

I just started printing my own Postage with paypal for my shirt company. It’s worked great for US shipping, but when it comes to international shipping, there’s no option for First Class. The only options are Express and Priority, which are exprensive.

Has anyone else run into this problem? Anyway to print First Class International postage from home?

    Yeah it’s a pain I ended up going to the post office and doing it there.

    I asked eric from linty fresh and he said

    I actually stopped using Paypal’s shipping and instead got myself an Endicia account. You can send stuff over 13oz, ship international,priority, first class, etc. Go to Encidia.com and you can get a free trial of the software for 30 days. It’s well worth it!!

    Thanks for the info Jon! I’ve look at Encidia. I like the idea, but I want it work well with PayPal, since it’s already got all my order information there.

    Any idea on whether it can pick up data from a PayPal account or would I just be retyping information into Encidia?

    What does it usually cost to send a shirt overseas from the US?

    I’m not sure about using it with paypal. I decided on just doing it through paypal at the moment because I wasn’t getting too many international orders. There’s a free trial, do you want to give it a try and let us know.

    $5 +

    If you use anything besides First Class it’s at least 2 times more expensive.

    I have always wondered this. I have always wondered how many more international tees I would sell if shipping wasn’t like $11.50!

    It doesn’t look like Endicia has Paypal support..
