parcel post or media mail?

im selling stuff on ebay what should I use parcelpost or media mail? what will be cheaper and faster for my buyers?

Answer #1

Hm, I’ve never heard of either of those two services…and your profile says you’re in the US…? I’d go FedEx, personally, as that’s been cheaper than UPS for domestic stuff the few times I’ve compared.

Answer #2

I think it depends on what type of items you are selling. Media mail is specifically used for items that contain media such as CDs, books, DVDs, and other printed materials. I think the ordinary parcel post is good for most items and they are quite cheap too. However, they are not as fast. You may want to give shipping options to your potential buyers to know their shipping preferences. Additionally, you can inquire in the websites of big shipping companies like fedex, dhl, ups for shipping quotes. there are other also less-known shipping services online that may cost you less. personally, I use ship2anywhere for shipping items in australia as they offer reliable australia parcel tracking service which is something that I really need for my business
