new to Selling: Box size

Question

Hello,When shipping normal items small and light weight < 3lb and using Ebay shipping. Does the size of the box matter? I know when I ship something , the company will measure the box and charge accordingly to size.So do I have to worry if its a little to big and have to add paper to take up the extra room? Thanks,Mike

When you are shipping anything under 1 lb, as long as the box size is less than 12x12x12 (or 1728 sq inches) the actual dimensions won't impact the shipping cost.

Enter some expected dimensions when you list, enter the actual when you print your label. This is to get you in the habit as *some* items will matter.
