Shipping through paypal question

[erlyjo]

I just realized that the last time I made a shipping label through PayPal I may have made a mistake. The drop down menu for priority packages only had an option for "flat rate envelope" which I just realized is different from the padded flat rate envelope that I used, with slightly different fees. What will happen to my package? Will it be returned to me?

if you mailed it already it will either get returned because of insufficient postage or i have heard sometimes it still get delivered but the buyer will have to pay the extra postage, so id give them a heads up and just offer to pay them back whatever they end up getting charged

Ok. Thanks. Is there a way to make a label for padded envelopes through PayPal?

Subbing. I cannot figure out how, but I wish there was a way.

not through pp, but you can use the usps site and use pp to pay for it.

Just slap a 15 cent stamp onto the package with the printed paypal flat rate label and you are fine.

I maybe wrong,pls correct me if I am!
I used to think that Paypal charges $4.90 for a flat rate envelope and the actual charges for a padded one are $5.30, so the difference between the 2 is 40 cents.we need to add stamps worth 40 cents to our package.

$5.30 is the retail (post office) price. Online, it's $5.15 (if you go through eBay or USPS click-n-ship).

Likewise with the regular flat rate envelope. Retail price is $5.15, online is $4.90.

So either way, there's only a 15 cent difference.

Thanks a lot for clarifying!
