Ok, its just past the time when my local Post office Closes, and I had just missed it.

I have been selling for some time, and had never had this problem before. I had my shipping label printed and paid for, the package was ready to ship. I had planned on going to the post office on my way home, but due to some craziness, I had to work later. Now, It's after 5pm (my post office closes at 5), I have a package ready to ship, yet no post office to deliver to. Is there any way I can still get it delivered, or refund my packaging slip, and try again for tomorrow? If I have to buy another slip, I will be at a loss for the item, as it will now cost me more to ship the item than I had gotten in selling it!

I dunno what to do here! I am puling my hair out for answers, Finding nothing on either eBay or on the USPS site!

>>I am **bleep** off at eBay right now. I am pulling all my current items for sale. This isn't
>> the First time I've been ripped off by eBay either! I think I am done using eBay to sell.

How were you ripped off by eBay?

All the problems your described here with the label were your own doing, and you made things difficult. You will be getting refunded for the voided label in 10-14 days.

FVFs are 10% of the item sale price + shipping, have been for close to a decade, and are clearly outlined in the help pages.
If paying 10% on shipping puts you in the red, then those items are a poor fit for being sold online.

Slow down a little bit here. It will take at least 10 days to get your refund for the original shipping label. Original labels are good up to 7 days. As far as the money. Call Paypal and see what they say. They usually have a message that says something to effect. "You have a negative balance. Transfer money now." That usually takes a little time. Usually they will wait until your next sale and you will see the difference deducted then They are usually easy to work with if you will communicate with them. eBay you won't see the charges go against you until the monthly billing cycle. Hopefully by then you will have other sales to cover it.

If you have a bank account linked to your eBay & PayPal account they will take it out of your account.

I and most other sellers have had problems and they undrstand this.
