Shipping estimate short question

[arterbery10]

I just sold an item and made the listing before I even received it. When making the listing I didn't have the size of the box I was about to receive but I did have the weight and I put that in. I know it's an estimate and I went to the ups site put the box size in and weight with location and the estimate was $10 short. Do I go to the ups store and give them the info and pay it myself. Or should I still print the label? I know they will take the shipping cost out but would ups let me pay the difference? I don't want to print then they would not accept the label and I lose more by paying as well.

UPS would probably take the package and bill eBay for the difference. eBay will turn around and bill you on your monthly invoice.  Problem is that UPS may add surcharges or something else based on the size/weight and you could get a nasty surprise when you get the bill.  That said, the UPS Store always seems to cost more than going through UPS directly. I have a UPS account and usually buy my label there.

At this point I would go pay at the UPS store myself. You will get a better deal at the store than waiting to be billed later....

If you buy the label through Ebay, enter the weight and dimensions so you'll pay the correct postage.

Thank you. I thought those were final but I updated it and got extra savings
