eBayers - where can you print Media Rate online?

I'm selling some books on eBay. Does anyone know if it's possible to print labels for Media Rate mail on the USPS site? I've got an account there, and have been looking for hours for the place where you can print labels for Media Rate.

I have this page for creating shipping labels for every other service, but it doesn't list media rate.

You can print them directly from eBay.

I just discovered how easy it is to print a label through eBay yesterday.
I didn't even have to switch to Safari like usual (with the USPS site) to get it to work.

what's even nicer is their multi-order shipping tool…allows you to print a bunch of labels all at once. Tres cool.

It's far too easy to do media mail on ebay. I've gotten several packages sent media mail that was NOT media - when I complained, the sellers didn't seem to know what I was talking about. Most have no idea that there are restrictions on what can be shipped via MM.

btw, as I understand it, MM gets last priority. So if it's really busy, they just let the MM sit until thingts ease up. Shipping MM during xmas season could mean LONG delivery times.

many thanks, all. I'll start using it immediately.

If anyone spots a way to do it on USPS's site, pass that on, too, in case I'm selling on Amazon, etc.

You should be able to do it through PayPal. Search Google for "PayPal ship now" to get the link, I can never find it through PayPl itself. I can find the multi order ship option, but that's a hassle for one label.

You of all people should know that eBay is just a tool that can produce good results in the right hands.

You can print media mail postage direct from Amazon, as well!

it really is quite handy. PayPal USPS shipping has kept me out of my post office for years.

one limitation I've seen with PayPal shipping is that very often, it will not allow me to use the least expensive international option, First Class if I'm not mistaken. It only offers me expensive Registered or Priority options.

Do you get the same discount on USPS shipping at PayPal that you get by going directly through eBay?

There are shipping options available through eBay that are not available through PayPal.
