Haha,
@Darkbulb I know what you mean about Post Office procrastination - I have a few items I'd like to sell but nowhere near your levels. Grain of sand on a beach more like. Trouble is, I can't be arsed.
I've been thinking about using a service like
Shyp that I've used in the past a couple of times for non-selling shipments.
Basically the way it works is that I sell something and then tell them, through an app, to come and pick it up at my place to ship it to the buyer.
They take care of everything - they pack it, find the best/lowest cost shipping option (they really do actually) and send it off with tracking - and then charge me a $5-9, I think, fee ontop of the actual shipping cost.
Now, for me to do that for eBay sales I'd want to pass on the $5-9 fee to the buyer (since I'm lazy
AND cheap) and that would make the shipping cost way too high in the end.
Solution: Stop being lazy and procrastinate and pack and ship myself.
ETC on the above: 2017. Maybe.
