Does anyone use Paypal for shipping?

If so, please share your experiences. Is it any cheaper or basically the same price as going to the post office?

I’m unsure in Canada but in the US it is cheaper than going to the post office. I think it’s a 10-15% cost difference. Plus I prefer just printing and home and dropping off instead of standing in line or having to fill out customs forms by hand.

It's cheaper. You can tell how much by looking at the discount in the summary.

Can you tell me how to ship a bubble mailer? The cheapest option I can find with paypal is $7+. It only cost me $2 or $3 at the post office.

Yes, I use PayPal shipping pretty much exclusively at this point. It varies based on the post office, but most will accept bubble mailers classified as a large envelope, which will run around $3. That's here in the US, so not sure how it might differ up there.

There is no letter mail options with PayPal and Canada Post. It's packets or parcels only. These options are cheaper than the post office because you are getting a small business rate.
