I have used soft pak 2day envelope before and had no issue. I shipped a sweater which fit comfortably in the padded envelope. IS IT NOT ONE RATE? Just like USPS padded flat rate envelope???

I paid something like $11, this is the rate from eBay prepaid labels. I’ve also used fedex before with no issues. From Wisconsin to Colorado. I was even charged a “retail delivery fee of .30” or something.

Where the &$@% are they getting an extra $10 which destroys my net. $20 for a fkn label??? Can’t be fkn serious. What is eBay’s number? Do I take this to FedEx or? I know people have been scammed by FedEx before with extra charges and refunded.

I don’t remember the dims I put in or the weight, but it was within the limits of the dims. I mean… it fit in the “one rate pak”. Absolute €unts.

I've been wondering for a while now why shipping with Fedex Pak mailer bags is cheaper than using Own Packaging.
Does anyone have any idea why?
As long as you are under the 5.5 lbs weight and 940 cubic inches volumetric limit using a Pak mailer bag is often a good 20-30% cheaper than own packaging, sometimes I just put my item that's already packed in "Own Packing" inside the Pak bag to save 30%.
There must be reasons for this to be the case?

Just to add my experience regarding this is with International Priority Shipping if that makes any difference.

I ship exclusively with FedEx Express, and have had a perfect experience for the most part, except I'm still getting a bit wrecked on 2 Day pricing. I'm not doing enough shipping volume (yet).

One of the shipping options that makes the most sense for my business is your company's Padded Pak.

I can ship a Pak for a very reasonable rate across the country in 2 days.

But could you please tell me a bit more about sizing restrictions?

What if I needed to insert a noticeably thick box inside the padded pak to protect the goods inside?

Is the padded pak generally a situation of "if it fits it ships" similar to USPS' padded flat rate bubble mailer?

Any details you can offer would be incredibly helpful, because this Pak could literally become a huuuuuge part of my business, assuming my products actually fit and fedex is OK with it.
