You definitely don't have to use eBay (presume you mean PayPal postage?) to send your items and are more than welcome to take your items to the Post Office to post.

 

Remember to ask for a proof of postage for your parcels in case of loss of parcel, unusual but it does happen and without the pop you can't make a claim to the Post Office.

You would still have to go to the post office to post even if you did choose to use the pay pal postage option.Keep your posting receipts for at least 13 months if not longer.

Hi,

 

Yes you can simply go to the post office, and they will thank you for it.:-x

 

Every item that's not paid for at the PO helps towards their demise.:(

 

You still need to go there to get your POP / tracking etc.

 

Just make doubly sure that you get the paypal address correct, as you will be doing it manually.

 

When I was selling, years ago, you could print the label off paypal, but then refuse the postage part, sadly I don't think you can now.:_|
