A couple people have asked what I use to ship my shirts and how to use paypal shipping.
I made a resource so you can all stop asking!
http://www.emptees.com/resources/94-how-to-package-and-ship-your-items-with-paypal
Its formatted a little better here

Its just the way I do it and it certainly isnt the only way.

I figured since I keep on getting instant messages on the the subject it would be a good idea to make a resource for it.

Nice. Now if people will actually check the Resources section before asking.

You can always just send them a link instead of answering their question

Thats never happened to me. Maybe you shipped them with Priority Mail online and First Class mail at the post office. $4.85 is about what Priority costs for a shirt.

I think youre talking about First Class Mail, which is what I usually use for shirts. Its about $2 + for one shirt when I use paypal shipping and thats how much it costs at the post office. The prices should be the same and I havent noticed any difference when I pay at the post office or pay online. All I was saying is make sure you choose the same method at the post office and online, and that this is the only error that would explain this difference in price.
