I used to use Depop shipping but now I use Paypal Shipping! When a payment comes through on Paypal I just have to click on the transaction, click print shipping label, type in the weight, and then buy the label. I have found that is ends up being less expensive most of the time. For heavier items I use USPS flat rate bubble mailers, which is only about 8 dollars! I love your videos! You are so comfortable and natural on camera.
Hello I’m selling for the first time on Depop and I’m confused so when I ship with Depop and print the label and stick it on am I able to just put the package in my mail box for them to pick up and bring it to the post office or whatever or do I have to bring it to a place and I’m using usps I think
It seems confusing at first but once you get the hang of it its super easy!🤍 I believe a must have is a shipping scale! Im actually doing a starter kit giveaway next week 🤍
Hey so I want to add little goodies in my packaging like stickers and small bracelets. I know this adds weight to the package, do when you weigh the item do you just weigh the piece of clothing or the entire finished package?
Hi. I have a question…Depop charges you 10% plus shipping, PayPal also charges you…if you sell something for $10 how much, roughly, are you making..? Thank you for your time and please excuse my ignorance, I’m new to this.
I think I read somewhere recent on here that if you have the label or something on Depop and then get the label on PayPal or something you’re basically paying extra?? Idk if this helps but I tried lol
Ok I enjoy these videos they help on trying to get some money on the side selling ok So i sold a $5 item and did the math which was taken 10% also 4.75 the shipping & 2.9% and 0.30% and i should of had 9.35 right ? But on my paypal it says “ depo limited -5.25 and the person send +4.55 im confused ?? So I technically only get the same amount i sold it for right ? And they took 0.70 cents from my bank account .
So I just ended up selling a item on depop for $15 And the shipping was $4 so total I got $16 total and then I had to ship the item out to the person and it coast $16 so basically I didn’t really gain any income, so I need some advice because I am new!
if you are going to do something like this, always make the price the price you are selling it for plus the shipping cost!! you can type in the description that you ship on your own, and state there is an extra $4 or whatever added to the total for shipping. that way you get the money for the actual item, and with the extra money they pay for the shipping, you use that to pu for shipping
Im a little confused at my charges on depop when I ship.. On paypal, the buyer send me a payment that includes the item price + shipping. Then depop limited charges me the 10% of the item + what the buyer paid for shipping. But then when I set up the shipping label on paypal after putting in the weight and stuff, I pay for shipping? So essentially the buyer pays me for shipping costs but then depop just takes that money away?
If you ship with depop they send you the shipping label you dont have to make one on pay pal . If you ship on your one you have to put that when listing an item
Hi new subscriber here! Your videos are very informative. Question : what if I choose shipping on my own and choose other couriers like pirate ship, FedEx or etc.. Does depop still take the shipping fee, transfered on my paypal which my buyer paid , if I choose shipping on your own? Or shipping on your own the same with shipping on depop where they will still automatically charge you, like shipping on depop they will charge you 5 dollars (which included to what the buyer paid) then it is taken from your paypal? Or are you getting the whole amount of shipping fee which your buyers paid for if you choose shipping on your own? Or depop still going to charge you a shipping fee when you do shipping on your own I hope you will answer my questions thanks in advance🥺
hi! firstly i want to start by saying how much this video helped me like?? thank you so much!! i am planning to ship on my own and i'm confused about one thing and you kind of mentioned it in this video but it was super quick, soo let's say that i charged the shipping 10 dollars, if the shipping costs 7 dollars do i get 3 dollars back to my account? and the same thing with let's say that it costs 13 dollars, depop takes extra 3 dollars from my account right? i think that's how it works but i wanted to make sure, thank you
Depop takes all of the money you designate to shipping so make sure that you have the correct weight, or you may be charged more. Depop doesn’t know the weight of the package all it knows is what type of shipping label to create based on weight class
@@noceboaffect3187 so what you are saying is, depop wont recognize the actual weight of the package, only what option you put, and when putting free shipping, you have to be careful on the weight or else it will charge tou more ?
okay so i don’t need to use paypal? i just shipped my first two items and i used paypal to print the shipping label and they charged me for it? wouldnt it be easier for me to just get my own boxes and supplies and label them myself?
I have a question I can’t find an answer to it, maybe you know… With “My own shipping” you enter the cost and does it mean depop charges buyer that cost and then you buy your own shipping label for those money?
yes this is my question too! like where does the extra pay of the shipping cost you set go???? Bec i got paid for the item but not the shipping price. if it goes to depop how does that work if I need that money to buy the label? 😭😭😭
@@franzlovedid you guys ever find an answer😭? I am so confused because I just sold something for 15$ and it charged the buyer 11$ for shipping but it only gave me 13$ in total😭. I used Depop shipping but I thought the 11$ would be given to me to ship the item??? How would it be different if I chose the “other” shipping option
if you ship on your own with depop payments do you add the tracking to depop after you’ve shipped? also if you ship with depop, and then change your mind and ship on your own can you still add tracking to depop?
1) Yes you add the tracking number manually if you ship by yourself 2) If you change your mind, Depop will still get the money for that label, it’ll already be pre-made, and you’ll have to pay extra for your own shipping so it’s not worth it. If you’re dissatisfied with the shipping you have to refund the entire purchase
I always get my shipping labels from PayPal...is that the right thing to do? When I try to do it through depop it says I need to connect my PayPal or soemthing and it already is so I can’t see it through depop
Hi I have a question! Ok so I recently sold something for 15$ and it charged the buyer 11$ for shipping but it only gave me 13$. I got the label and stuff through Depop but I thought it would give me the 11$ that it charged the buyer for shipping so that I could package and ship the item? If I were to chose the “other” option for shipping, would it give me the 11$ so I could create the shipping label and package the item on my own?
I just made a Depop sell and Depop took the shipping money from my item’s price. Is that normal? The item I listed was $8 and I put the option for “shipping with Depop” for $5.05 and after the sell I only made $1 with some cents :/ I thought the buyers payed for the shipping when using shipping with Depop.
If you use pirateship, it's required that you have a scale so you can get a quote on what you intend on sending! in addition, it helps give a more accurate guide to how much to charge for shipping with depop
I have a question, so if I decided to use the depop method to ship and i print out the label and the package is all ready to go, which post office do I ship it out to? does it matter or do I have to use usps?
So I ship on my own and do free shipping. I listed a shirt at $17, depop took their 10%, but then I got charged almost $4 by depop limited? and when I payed for shipping it was a totally separate lot of money...
Hi, HELP! Your video was very informative. I just made my first sale and was confused. All went smooth until I see Depop's fees charged to my cc. Can you explain why they do that and then give it back on my paypal account? Is that right? Also, I dn't see my item as 'sold' on depop. Will that automatically update once usps confirms shipment? thanks! Do you have a video on how to navigate Depops website? Its not transparent.
Did u figure it out how the whole shipping worked or rather did u do the shipping yourself ? Also fo u know if u need to print out label when u ship to costomer ?
Which one do you prefer???

Chile that’s a sh-
shipping and payment seems so confusing and i want to start selling on depop but i’m rlly scared😭any must have items for starting a shop?
It seems confusing at first but once you get the hang of it its super easy!🤍 I believe a must have is a shipping scale! Im actually doing a starter kit giveaway next week 🤍
My money on paypal is on hold because my business is new on depop and all packages were delivered 😒
Reach out to PayPal and depop to have the issue resolve
I think it’s so much easier to go to the post office and hand the lady the package pay the fee and I’m good to go.
How much is it normally?
literally you’re amazing!!!
😭😭😭 haha thank you 🤍
thank you this is so helpful x
Im so glad it was helpful 🤍🤍
tip: don't buy labels from USPS. Buy them from PirateShip. You'll get a huge discount compared to the average person.
@@sushi_5425 free labels or free packaging? Free labels seems too good to be true! :)
@@sushi_5425 ok when you say "label" you just mean a sticky label. I thought you meant label as in "postage".
Super detailed! Very helpful !!
Soo happy it was helpful !!🤍
Hey so I want to add little goodies in my packaging like stickers and small bracelets. I know this adds weight to the package, do when you weigh the item do you just weigh the piece of clothing or the entire finished package?
i weight everything together just to get the right weight
super helpful! thank you girly
this is so helpful thank you so much!!!
this was so helpful tysm! 💗
When doing domestic shipping can I use my own poly mailers or do I have to use USPS mailers?
You can use your own polymailers

Anything you ship that is 13 ounces or less is $3.49 no more & no less through USPS. Clearly less than Bepop, if that helps.
Where? I don’t think that’s true. Does that have tracking? Because you need a tracking number.
@@noceboaffect3187 what does needing a tracking number have to do with clothes that r less than 13 oz costing 3.49$ to ship?
So I just ended up selling a item on depop for $15 And the shipping was $4 so total I got $16 total and then I had to ship the item out to the person and it coast $16 so basically I didn’t really gain any income, so I need some advice because I am new!

Could I write my own shipping label, when shipping on your own?
They have slips at the post office that you can use to write the address on the mailers
@@StephanieVargas is that where you pay?
I am a new seller so i chose ship by myself how can i switch to depop shipping???

@@laurensotez4365 yess thats what it sounds like
@@StephanieVargas this helped so much thank you! From now on I'll just print the label directly from depop :) not through paypal
I struggle with this too
When you determine shipping by weight does that also include the weight of the box and packaging?

@@doitforharambe4564for real. maybe you go to the post office and they print a label for yo!
So who pays for shipping
I always get my shipping labels from PayPal...is that the right thing to do? When I try to do it through depop it says I need to connect my PayPal or soemthing and it already is so I can’t see it through depop
It really all depends on what works for you better there no right or wrong shipping
So when you send in an envelope with a stamp, would you just write their address and name on the envelope the way you’d send a letter?
Yesss its just like sending a letter ! 🤍🤍
Thank you this video answered all my questions😌💕
That makes me SOO HAPPY !! 🥰🥰
So is there any payments on shipping when shipping in an envelope? Hehe sorry I guess I had one more question☺️
All you need is to buy the stamps. Basically the stamps are kinda like a shipping label
I’m gonna be selling jewelry on my Depop. Should I use an envelope for it or a small Polly mailer like which one do you think is better?
I watched another Depop seller say polly mailer would protect the jewelry more
It depends on the jewelry if it’s fragile maybe use a padded poly mailer if not you can use an envelope
when you ship on your own, does depop send the shipping info to your email??
Yess you can see it in the email or the app itself too!
someone dmed me asking how much the shipping price was for a pair of shoes. how do i find that out? do they need to buy it first and it tells them or?
Can I use a food scale? lol
Yes! Kitchen scales are the same as long as it does oz
Hi I have a question! Ok so I recently sold something for 15$ and it charged the buyer 11$ for shipping but it only gave me 13$. I got the label and stuff through Depop but I thought it would give me the 11$ that it charged the buyer for shipping so that I could package and ship the item? If I were to chose the “other” option for shipping, would it give me the 11$ so I could create the shipping label and package the item on my own?
I just made a Depop sell and Depop took the shipping money from my item’s price. Is that normal? The item I listed was $8 and I put the option for “shipping with Depop” for $5.05 and after the sell I only made $1 with some cents :/ I thought the buyers payed for the shipping when using shipping with Depop.
this happened to me :( and i’m super confused. did u by any chance figure it out ?
They take the cost of the item and shipping so you need to charge accordingly, it’s 10% of the full total with shipping included in that price
Is the tracking number included on the depop label?
ibelieve the tracking number is the number above the bar code on the label
When you ship on your own, does the money still get sent to your PayPal like when you ship With depop or is it a different process?
Depop will send you the full amount to your paypal and only take their 10% fee
how do you know how much to put for your own shipping ?
You have to figure out what the post office charges on average for different weights
can i use like a weight scale ? the one that you like stand on to weigh yourself, i’m just curious
No you have to use oz
Do I need a scale? Shouldn’t the post offices do that
If you use pirateship, it's required that you have a scale so you can get a quote on what you intend on sending! in addition, it helps give a more accurate guide to how much to charge for shipping with depop
Depop ships with first class (F) so you can’t use the free priority mail packaging (maybe their rules changed from when u did this video tho😅)
The email is telling me to ship the item first then send the tracking code before I get my money is that normal?
So when shipping with PayPal, do you sign up with PayPal business or a regular account?
doesn’t matter, both work same
I have a regular account! ✨
@@StephanieVargas Ok thanks!
I have a question, so if I decided to use the depop method to ship and i print out the label and the package is all ready to go, which post office do I ship it out to? does it matter or do I have to use usps?
It can be any usps but it has to be usps.
If i ship it myself, i just drop it off at the usps place and i'm done? Do i have to confirm anything on the depop app after or am i done?
You send the tracking link to the buyer
which post office do you drop it off at?
USPS
