Has anyone else been having issues with Paypal's new shipping company "ship
station" so far for me, it won't print international address, and I've
had to have 2 labels reinbursted do to printing issues. I can't get anyone
on the ship station team to respond to help questions, pay pal is not great at
resolving things either so far.

Is pay pal the only paying service we can use? can we link to any other payment
options?

You can use Pirate Ship, but not directly from PayPal. Same commercial pricing.

Just scroll down to to "manage multiorder shipping" and print your shipping labels
from there.

Stripe is allowed for BL too, it is less costly than PayPal as well, and they
have much better customer service!

*** MY RANT ON SHIP STATION ***

I really am glad I switched over to PirateShip for shipping since "Ship Station"
is really poorly implemented (okay, it sucks a biblical donkey), plus PirateShip
has live help that has been stellar for me from day one. The user experience
at PirateShip is well done, it is not integrated with any payment provider, but
you can copy and paste address info from bricklink and 99.99% of the time it
parses the data accurately. (I know this is going to start sounding like an
ad for PirateShip, but I get zero reimbursement from them, I just really like
the product and the desire to see them succeed.) PirateShip also has rubber
stamp capability, USPS/UPS cost comparisons, excellent reporting, customizable
tracking email notifications, batch shipping, and a lot more.
