Packing Supplies
These are essentials to starting!
Â
I use polymailers to ship pretty much everything. I mostly sell clothes so I find these are a great size and perfect if lettermail does not work for you.
Pack of 100 Poly Mailers Bags
Â
These are great for shipping lettermail if your item is small/thin. Since I usually sell clothes I would probably put accessories or small tank tops in these.
Paper for your labels of course! I almost always just print the label on paper and tape it to my package.
