quick C&S question

joz*garage — Mon, 20 May 2013 16:33:03 GMT

this might sound a bit dumb

but, i gotta ask

i filled out my first item and discovered theres no area to fill out - send to - buyers details on the satchel

so im guessing after i pop it in a post box - at AP they'll know where to send it just from the product code?

btw crikey, i noticed in 'my ebay' that it does automatically get marked as sent

I'll answer you here anyway Joz LOLOLOL

When you go into C&S there is a button up the top somewhere that askes you to import eBay items.

Then you tick the box next to the item you are trying to prepare to post.

It will then fill in all the details for you - yours on the right, the customer's on the left.

Scroll down

Select satchel/ box etc - enter code on flat rate satchels if you are using those and all that info gets done automatically, other wise if using own packaging, enter your own weight and dimensions.

Then select postage options

Then continue, check payment and lodgement method

Check "I agree to terms"

Pay by PP if you have indicated that

and then you will get a screen that tells you to Print the Label...

The label will come out with your customers address, and yours (really small up the top right hand corner)

You then slip this into the plastic pocket on the C&S satchels (so no need to hand address) or secure to whatever packaging you are using.

That all sounds like hard work when you write it out like that, but seriously, it's like a minute from woe to go after the first few times.

btw, can you link more then one ebay account with C&S, sparkles wont tell me

Re: quick C&S question

*crikey*mate* — Wed, 22 May 2013 04:40:51 GMT

no mate - separate C&S account for each selling account.

BUT if you want to work hard, you can get away with one account simply by manually entering in all the details on their side yourself and then manually entering the tracking number and post sent dooby manually as well.

Awesome news about all the printers! but it'll be a bit of a hardship buying a ream of paper eh?

LOLOLOLOL

all the best matey and well done on your new acquisitions...

find out how much the ink cartridges would cost to replace. for future reference, if you only need a printer for ebay, you can get really, really cheap mono laser printers.

i'll think about which ebay account i'd use the most for C&S and link it to that one...dang that extra work hey :8}

(I assumed it would be the same as PP where you can add additional ebay accounts.)

yeah i reckon, the fellow with the HP 2610 says it comes complete with instruction booklet too and extras, so, im hoping paper will be amongst those extras ]:)

theres an abundance of free printers i can get my hands on...was thinking i could interchange the HP ink cartridges and get more for free

printers are new to me. laser printers? does that mean they dont require ink cartridges?

if so, i might just get hold of one of those

Jo, you won't be able to share the cartridges between the printers - unless you are extremely lucky! Each model has a slightly different cartridge 😞

Personally, I prefer HPs - I only ever buy the cheap ones, ( under $40) and usually get at least a couple of good years out of them, printing stuff almost every day.

hi B3, I downloaded the software for it last night - HP Officejet and Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers, and did some reading. came with spare new ink catridges and will simply buy more when required, the machines a beauty.

my office desk will have to re organized and modified, going to make a bottom self for the tower and position the printer inplace, screw in the multi power points at the rear, so all the wiring looks invisible (like a custom engine bay, temporary untill i get a corner desk)

twice i travelled on trappers drive to collect a free item, it made me dla

well worth the drive
