Does anybody know...

if paypal prints the needed customs forms when you print a label for shipping overseas? I have sold something and need to ship to Ireland, normally when I ship overseas I just go to the post office but was hoping to cut that trip out. So, does anybody know?

Yes it does.

However, it prints out two sets of paperwork...and it's very vague as to which ones you cut and apply to the box, which ones you save and which might go in their overseas packing evelope.

Confusing enough that I always take everything to the USPS counter and let them tell me what goes where...and there have been times they weren't sure and did it differently on occasions.

Luckily I've never had an overseas mishap.

So two bits of advice:

1) Make sure you weigh everything correctly.
2) Print and let THEM decide how to apply the paperwork.

Yeah, I'm kinda thinking I should just take the box to the post office and let them weigh it and tell me 1)how much and 2) what paperwork, LOL. I was just trying to be lazy I guess...

There is a slight cost savings using PAYPAL....
