I just sold my first item on Ebay and there's 3 long links. One of them says my paypal address is not confirmed. But in the middle of all the jibberish is the buyers name and confirmed address. Can I just take this to the local UPS store with his address and mail it off?

I too am trying to figure out how to sell on eBay. I bought some socks at a garage sale for 50 cents that are valued at $200

Yes.

Make sure you get tracking and provide that to eBay.

Yes. You can then enter the tracking number on Ebay.

You should be able to create the shipping labels straight through paypal.

Your paypal account won't send you money without address, in other words you WON'T get your money after you've sent item.

That's Mercari, not eBay.

It's pretty simple but eBay just changed their seller payment policy. Before, the funds used to go to your Paypal account, which you received a notification when buyer pays. I have the eBay app on my phone and it chimes as a cash register when payment is received.

Now eBay deposits the money automatically to your bank account. I think that takes longer, but oh well.

Regardless, when you receive payment, you ship to the address provided by buyer. I always provide a tracking number.

Thank me later.

Shipping through Ebay is stupid cheap so keep that in mind if you plan on selling items more often. It also communicates the tracking info directly to the buyer.

Also seems that Ebay is trying to distance itself from Paypal. They now send funds to your checking account instead of your paypal. I prefer this as it saves a little in fees.
