DELIVERY CONFIRMATION Don't leave home without it!
You need it you need it you need it. It saves soooooo many problems in so many ways. Truly.
First if shipping using paypal, and shipping by priority mail the DC (delivery confirmation ) is free.
And it only cost 18 cents (at time of writing) for DC on first class parcels.
What does DC do for you the seller?
It allows you to prove that something was delivered. That is all important through paypal - that you have some form of online method of showing the parcel actually reached the buyer.
Rarely, an item won't be scanned by the postal worker and rarer still, would be a mechanical malfunction of the scanning equipment so that the information is lost before it is received by the post office from the carrier.
Those are the tiny risks we take as sellers. Even riskier is shipping without DC because of the scammers that can and do say they didn't receive an item when they did.
How does DC help a buyer? You as the seller are able to give them the DC number. The buyer can then get some peace of mind that the package has actually been mailed.
However you should be aware that DC is really meant for the seller. The buyer will have the package in hand before the record of it is online for them to check.
All in all, it is good to have this. Doing it through paypal is the cheapest way to get DC. So if you aren't printing your labels through paypal, now might be the time to consider it. There is no additional charge to use the paypal printing format.
