Why is Pirate Ship Better?
Do you use Pirate Ship? - The eBay Community
I've used Pirateship many times over the years and never once had any issues. I believe their pricing is the same as on eBay, or at least I have always paid the same price. The only 'downside' to me is that I have to go back on eBay to post the tracking number, but that is two minutes tops. If you haven't tried them yet, please do so. Best of luck to you....

I have been using them exclusively for many years. Some (but not all) of their prices are about the same as eBay.
BUT PS offers cubic pricing which eBay does not. On physically small items you will save substantially. That is true whether they are heavy or light.
Additionally, for international 4 pounds or less they have Simple Export rates which are significantly less than eBay. (But you have to ask for it - but only once).
And outside of the pricing there are numerous other advantages they make them my exclusive Go To.
They will automatically download all your eBay sales, then when you print the label they will automatically upload the tracking numbers. There is no need to go back and do it manually.

If I'm reading the article right, their business model is that you get shipping rates that are better than individual retail, but not as good as if you were a big corporation. Pirate Ship pays the corporate rate.
Unfortunately, for me FedEx is usually the best option ' but Pirate Ship doesn't ship with them.
An aside' I used to get a company discount with FedEx: personal shipping at my employer's corporate rate. The discount was phenomenal. I mean, a package that would normal be $20 - $30 would cost just a couple dollars.
What I didn't know is that a) they ended the program for new subscribers, and b) your access would be cancelled for non-usage. Once they canceled me it was not possible to renew.
If I had known, I would have shipped an empty box once a year just to keep the discount active.
