Considering the craziness going on with the latest USPS rate change, I thought I'd put together some info for those who might need a shipping solution that offers all of the USPS's services online. Personally, I can't see myself being too inconvenienced by the lack of a First-Class option on PayPal for items weighing between 15 and 16oz, especially since I have few to no items in that range, but that doesn't mean there aren't those who really need an alternative other than going to the PO. So, here's what I've found: Stamps.com = $15.99/mo (USPS only) Endicia.com = $15.95/mo (their premium option for online sellers -- not sure what shippers they use since I can't seem to get any of their pages to open other than the one linked to) ShipStation.com = $25/mo for 500 shipments/mo ( integrates with all major marketplaces) While it would be nice to include a logo on my shipping labels, I think I'll stick with PayPal. Besides, I've started using small labels with my shop name as it appears on my site and its URL to cover the PayPal URL at the top right of the label. I thought about doing that for the return address, but fear they might void the label if I do.

I had looked at those sites and for me, I can't see paying those fees and not having enough sales.

I just use PayPal for all my shipments. It is worth considering whenever I become a Mega Seller, or at least a mini-mega seller.

Yeah, I didn't think the majority of us here would need (or want) to use either of the services, but I figured I'd put the info out there in case anyone does.
