I just looked online and they do have free supplies like USPS but you have to open a FEDEX Account and provide a credit card which I'd rather not do.
thanks, that's good to know. I do already have an account with them so I suppose I could order their boxes. the carrier switch is being delayed until 12/16.
FYI if you have a lot of overstock of Priority supply, you can always bring them back to your post office, I'm sure they'll accept unused supply.
Also you can inside out envelopes and even some boxes or wrap boxes in colored/printed plastic (say large Costco bag) and you're good to go. I've been receiving a lot of such packages from eBay.
I checked but it says only Fedex express are free? Will the tradesy labels be express? Will there be lots of pushback if I use an express box if its fedex ground?
" Starting Wednesday, December 9, FedEx Ground and Home Delivery will be used for all newly-confirmed sales where a pre-paid label is the shipping method "
The changeover has been pushed back to Jan 2021 once the holiday crunch has passed.
wondering what everyone's average rate of return is? I noticed my listings page shows about 15% less sales then when I look at my profile sales. I think that's alittle high, but I've only ever gotten one thing sent back to me by Tradesy so I'm pretty happy about that - but I'd like to know whether my return rate is high, low or average.
only one thing? aren't they shipping all the returns back to seller now?
If Tradesy no longers uses USPS - then I will have to leave. There is no Fedex near my house or my job. Plus, I don't like Fedex and want to support the USPS. I just read the posts that say they are changing and I am grateful I happened to come on this forum to ask about the return rate - LOL. Thank you all for posting about this change and making me aware of it - otherwise I wouldn't have even known and probably wouldn't have even noticed the label change! I have a few sales outstanding - so if the labels print for Fedex - then I will have to go back and cancel the sales. Just don't have the time to drive all over the place looking for a fedex drop off and I sure don't have time to sit on the phone for a half hour or longer trying to schedule a pickup - if they will even come for one or two little $10 packages. I certainly am not going to start paying pickup fees on TOP of Tradesy's huge commission.

LOL - if I wanted to be bothered with that - I'd still be selling on Ebay. Just cancelled my sales. Hopefully the idiots at Tradesy will see a huge volume increase of cancellations and give sellers the option of labels - Mercari does.
