paypal shipping from gift payment? (without using multi-order shipping)

alexlazarevich · 04-14-2011, 04:40 PM

Does anyone know how to get to the paypal shipping page (not the annoying over-complicated multi-shipping page, but the single shipment page) for an item you need to ship that was from a gift payment? (no address connected to the transaction)

I know I've gotten there before, but I can't find it now. This is half the reason why I hate gift payments, I waste 10-15 minutes trying to ship the darn card!

Help!

I assumed u couldn't get them cause everyone that pays gift sends their address. I hope someone knows how to do this cause it would really help shipping those.

you can't.....

Sure, you need the persons address sent to you from outside PayPal. But what I mean is how do you create the shipping label? I normally use the PayPal multi-order shipping java applet. But that is annoying and cumbersome. Someone once sent me a link to a PayPal page where you could create a shipping label for one package using a much simpler interface, in fact the normal interface for shipping a single item. But I can't find that link anywhere and gave up looking after 10-15 minutes.

Anyone know what I'm talking about and where that page is on PayPal's site?

I used to be able to find it, but can't any longer.

you have to manually create a label using the file tab
