Services such as FedEx or UPS already allow you to do this, so the focus of this post will be on the United States Postal Service.
If you do not have a pouch, affix the folded label using clear plastic shipping tape over the entire label area. Be careful not to obscure or damage the bar codes or addresses. You can also print labels on label stock and affix them to your package.
Can I print my label on regular printer paper? A. Yes! You can print your labels on 8 1/2" x 11" paper, or you can purchase self-adhesive labels that meet the size requirements of the label.
If you ship via USPS, then your postage costs will be lower if you print your labels through eBay. The USPS site charges the retail price and eBay charges the discounted online rate.
For items weighing 3 pounds or less, it is usually cheaper and faster to ship USPS priority mail than UPS ground. Also if your item is extremely fragile or can be easily crushed, you should ship priority mail.
