How to ship first class packages

[Treecycle Hardwoods]

Hi there I had been using Stamps.com as an easy way to ship small pieces of wood like pen blanks, knive scales/blocks, etc... I liked the cheaper option on low weight packages. I learned today that stamps.com charges and monthly subscription fee (learned the hard way) after a rant session with them they refused to offer a refund so I called my credit card company and got it that way after canceling my account with stamps.com Needless to say I am looking for a way to print postage online for a first class package. I can't seem to find the option of USPS.com am I missing something? Any ideas or suggestions would be great!

Greg, you can do it through PayPal if the buyer pays you that way. I have not found a way through USPS for First Class, just Priority.

HMM I will have to look the next time i get into a situation like that. I always thought that you could only do priority thru pp also. Thanks for the heads up I will look closer at it next time I ship using pp.

Another option is a postal scale and stamps.....

In PayPal its under "Multiorder Shipping" even if its not paid for with PayPal you can still purchase a shipping label there.

You can print parcel via PP also, but unless it's real heavy parcel is not usually much less than priority, and sometimes even more. And it is never less expensive than FEDEX with an account.

What's interesting with First class is the irregular shape of packaging vs. the Priority packages constraints.
Last year Greg shipped me some wood this way and I could spare a lot of money and hassle.

Yes if they pay you through pp then you can print first class from pp. I uae it every day for hair sticks.
