For those of you who already ship worldwide good for you, i am happy to hear & very proud of you.

For those of you who do not: It might sound scary, "WORLDWIDE", like accross big oceans... lol. BUT it is just as easy to ship to China then it is the next state & listing an item worldwide gets you so, so much more exposure & more business which means YOU MAKE MORE MONEY.

About 1/3 of my entire business is worldwide, i would have that many less sales if i only shipped US!

It only requires 2 Postal Forms besides your regular great packaging!

Form 2976 (a little green & white form, the half green part is a sticker that after you fill it out the PO actually puts on the package... ONLY FILL OUT THE FORM, LET THE PO STICK IT ON AFTER THEY PROCESS IT):

Form 2976-A (an all white form, larger than the other & has multiple pages):

You can get these forms at your local Post Office or check online at

www dot usps dot com.

AND HERE IS A GREAT TIP:

SMALL PACKAGE-SMALL FORM

LARGE PACKAGE-LARGE FORM

If you use online shipping you can also print out the necessary forms just as easily as you would filling them out by hand. All it requires if you ship worldwide online, Paypal, is to answer a few questions extra & Paypal does all the work for you; 5 pages will print out & you will attach them to your package using a SLEEVE. I also get these forms at my local Post Office.

SHIPPING WORLDWIDE USING PAYPAL:

There are a couple things you need to know when using Paypal to ship Internationally.

1. You can only ship using the Parcel Post Option not Letter Post that is used for lighter weight packages.

If you have a package that only weighs 2 ounces it would be foolish to ship it online using the "Parcel" option since it would cost you considerably more. I am not sure why there is no "Letter" Post option for lighter packages but make sure you know this in order to save money.

2. If you ship online using Paypal & print out this 5 pages i talked about above: you keep one for your records & the 4 other go inside a sleeve which you can also get at your local Post Office: Form 2976-E. It is a clear sleeve with a peel off back(kinda like a band-aid) which you put the 4 papers inside & peel off the back & adhere it to the package.
