At last I got C&S To Work just had to wait until I got the right order that was not in my state and today I had an order in Qld posting from SA. I selected the Code 3kg Satchel by the time i Packed it it was just under 1.5kg when through the system and what I like is the paypal payment system. Its Great and tracking supplied. Now a question if i have a item around 2-3kg and use my own packing wht will C&S not let me pay with paypal? Should I select 1 of the 3kg Boxes? and sent it in my own packaging? Another question The Plastic holder that holds the Address label it is suppose to seal or are you just required to use sticky tape?

If you are using your own packaging you have to pay at the PO.
You can only prepay using the flat rate satchels/boxes.

The plastic pocket has a strip with a red line on it remove that and it suppoed to seal.
I always stick it down with tape as somtime the adhesive does not stick. (The batch of 500gm
satchels that I have at the moment won't stick).

I too have some that don't stick too well however I just turn the closure flap down a bit lower so it covers the seal.

according to the ebay news, you can use the ebay postage labels with calculated postage as well now:
"Earlier this year, we announced the introduction of integrated postage label printing on eBay. Today we�re pleased to announce that all sellers now have access to both the flat rate Australia Post labels and the new, calculated Australia Post postage labels.
The flat rate labels can be used in conjunction with selected Australia Post flat rate satchels and boxes while the calculated labels let you create and print postage labels specific to your package or parcel.
Not only can you click, print and post, you can also pay through eBay. The cost of your postage is simply added to your monthly invoice so all you need to do is pop your item, with label attached, into any Australia Post box or store.

I prefer The Australia Post C & S as you pay there and then with Paypal other wise I would be having a monthly bill with Ebay which would be hard to find... At least this way I can pay as I go.
