Recently I noticed that I was getting substantially higher shipping cost for
USPS domestic mail when creating a shipping label on PayPal/ShipStation. For
example it will tell me that a Priority Mail Package is $8.82 but when I purchased
the label it is $12.99. Is anyone having the same problems with PayPal shiping?

I find it strange that I have to purchase the over price shipping label then
void it in order to purchase the shipping label at the correct price.

I have come to find it easier to paste a full address into Pirateship vs hoping
that shipstation works that day. All the help I can offer!

My favorite part of using a third party shipping vendor is earning back my 1%
from Paypal. That doesn't happen if you use Paypal/ShipStation (or at least
it didn't before the ShipStation changeover).

My little shop has done well by PirateShip as far as saving money for me and
my buyers. I have been using PirateShip for just a little less than 2 years.

Oh man, you just blew my mind....

I have been seeing so many small cash back notifications by using my PayPal debit
card and for some reason my brain never linked the fact that I use that debit
card to pay my shipping. I rarely use that debit card so I was wondering where
that cash back was coming from as I never stopped to think about it. This is
funny and quite obvious after you pointed it out to me.

Free cash back and I don't have to use shipstation, pirateship just got even
better.
