POSTING parcels for secondhand websites like Vinted, Depop, and eBay can become hectic and stressful, especially with how many methods now exist to do so.
Now, one woman has shared her postage hack she said she wished she had known sooner on her TikTok.
In a recent video, the woman whose username is @yappy_lover64, revealed there was a way for sellers to turn off certain ways of posting packages.
“I cannot stand InPost home delivery,” she began.
She then explained she didn’t have a standard printer at home and had to use a miniature one she owns.
She fumed: ‘I have to print the label on that and it never f***ing scans!”
She said it makes her ‘waste’ petrol because when it doesn’t work at the post office she has to drive home to reprint the label.
“I could have just turned it off this whole time, like, what the hell?
“Why did no one tell me this?
“Why is this not a known fact?” she asked.
In the comments, people were quick to thank the woman for sharing the tip.
“LIFESAVER!!!!! I’m tired of going to the damn library to print off labels [skull emojis],” wrote one person.
Another said: “Omg turning in post off ASAP [embarrassed face emoji].”
Someone else commented: “I’ve been going to the library to print labels off this whole time.”
“WHAT I DID NOT KNOW THIS,” a fourth penned and tagged their friend.
“Thanks so much [laughing face emojis],” said another user.
To change the way you post, all you need to do is enter your settings, choose the ‘postage’ category, and turn off InPost Home Delivery.

However, you can’t take much to the post office unless you’re selling items, which is why people have been selling their hacks.
One of those, Hollie Hoath, shared her tips and tricks in a TikTok.
She said: “I kept my prices really fair. I’m always open to reasonable offers, but I’m not going to lowball just for fun.”
She added she used the Spotlight feature, which costs about £6.95 and lets you choose two items to show in others feeds for around a week.
“I’ve made £1,400 in April out of my old clothes. Who doesn’t need an extra £1,400?” she told viewers.
