Default Ebay: how to ship shoes?

I am selling some shoes on ebay, all new in box but how should I ship them? Can I use some plain wrapping paper and tape the box all over? Any suggestions?

Just tape the shoe box up, and stick the shipping lable on.

I know I'm bumping this, but make sure to stuff the shoes just in case.

First of all, you will need to figure out what shipping company you will use. By the sounds of things you are not shipping in large quantities so I would go for Australia Post. Then it is as simple as stuffing the boxes to reduce rattle (use brown paper scrunched up or bubble wrap), taping them up and putting a shipping label on them.

From experience you should always stuff the boxes.

Hi there, we send shoes all over the world.
As suggested above, you could stuff the boxes and shoes with paper, stops movement as well as reduces any moisture etc.
However, I would never just put a lable on the shoe box for security/theft reasons.
Our company always wraps all shoe boxes etc in plain brown paper, then affix the lables.
If the buyer is happy to get them without the box, you can bubble wrap them and put them in an Aus post $8 bag...cheap.

Hope this is of some help!

Cheers,
Jamie
