Why are shipping labels not printing?

It it less expensive to buy a scale for shipping items and printing labels from home?

• I have an ebay business going and I debating on buying a small scale to weight and purchase labels via the internet. Is this any less expensive?

• Answer:

  Jessica, Is it less expensive? I say...Yes. The same rates would apply. So how is it cheaper? What is your time worth? If you have an eBay business going and you want to make real money then all you have to ask yourself is "what is my time worth?" "Do I really want to load my packages in the car, drive down to the post office, unload my packages, and wait in line for postage every time I need to ship my items?" or Do I buy a scale, affix labels to my packages and schedule a pickup for my local postal carrier to pick up my packages at my doorstep and then mail them for me? (Yes, you can do that) I think the choice is clear. Again, what is your time worth?
