eBay Tip 202 - Shipping Supplies

Do you buy and sell on eBay? Great, you are one of the many eBayers out there. Now here is a tip that I am sure will come handy if you are shipping stuff from your home. Save the packing materials that you get when you buy stuff online. That way if you want to ship your item out, you can reuse the packing material.

It is great for the environment, as you are essentially recycling. Plus it will help keep your shipping costs down. There is nothing that people don't love more then low shipping. Trust me, high shipping rates tend to put off most buyers, well, at least me.

Packing materials to save
  • Bubble Wraps
  • Irregular boxes. Sure USPS can give you free boxes, but they are predetermined sizes.
  • Packing peanuts. You can store them in the garbage bags or something.
There you have it, hopefully this provided you with a great money saving tip.
