Basic shipping questions for newbie

Any chance you would share your Python script?

Happy to. I will check it in somewhere when I get home.

I just checked in everything: https://github.com/shimniok/tindie-workflow

Post any issues to https://github.com/shimniok/tindie-workflow/issues

Yes, I ship my stuff like that, label is wrapped around all 4 sides, my box is 1" x 3" x 4" which is the EXACT size of sections on the label, section with postage matrix code is on one side, section with address is on the top and section with the tracking code is on the front, excess from both sides is wrapped on the forth side

Another way to print first class labels- USPS click and ship for business. It’s a standalone program and you still have to schlepp to the post office to print the $2.32 stamp (usually at the APC machine) but at least you get proper label and tracking. I use bubble envelopes, and the 1/2 page label just fits.

Sorry for bumping this very old topic, but after being fed up with writing shipping addresses by hand, I decided to take the laziest possible route and write a stupidly simple page to print labels for me directly off of tindie’s order page.

The details on how to use it are here: https://github.com/gonzalocasas/tindie-label-print

It’s basically just an HTML page with a print style that works for label printers, so, with a tad of Javascript and a bookmarklet, I can print the labels without any extra typing or additional software.

Cheers
