Huge credits to @nicholasv for discovering this deal when he went to print a label for an item he sold.

I can't seem to find the T&Cs for whatever reason but I am confident all eBay Plus members should have this promo automatically on their accounts. I have checked all of my accounts and they all have the promo automatically applied. See here

You can check with the following instructions via the eBay website:

  1. View your orders here (or on the eBay app, go to 'Selling' tab, then 'Sold'

  2. Click on one of your orders and click on "Purchase another label". You should see the promo under the 'Services' section where you choose your courier service and it should say in green text:

    3 FREE Sendle labels for eBay Plus members until 31/03

Again, thanks to Nick and enjoy :)

      As a seller and buyer of eBay, I always advise against Sendle aka CourierPlease.
      Lost 2 of my parcels within a span of 1 month. Their deliveries take longer, often without providing proper tracking updates.
      Switched to AUSPOST permanently, no regrets.

  • nicholasv on 01/03/2023 - 20:01

    Doesn't appear to have a limit to weight or size either (outside of Sendle's standard guidelines), so if you've got anything heavy which you've been avoiding posting because of the postage cost, then now might be the time to reconsider. Bye bye brand new vinyl players which have been in the garage for a couple months 😂

    • I Smell Pennies on 01/03/2023 - 20:05

      Yes, as long as it's up to 25 kg and max volume 0.1m³.

    • whyisave on 01/03/2023 - 21:06
      +1

      All of AusPost satchels have a 5-kg limit,
      ie. if you can stuff it inside -and- it's under 5-kg, AusPost will accept it.

      Also, AusPost is cheaper than Sendle when you're sending to regional parts of Australia.

      • I Smell Pennies on 01/03/2023 - 22:31

        That’s correct! For regional, Auspost is cheaper and safer

  • videoman on 01/03/2023 - 20:13

    When listing your item on ebay is there any way to post with sendle with "calculated:cost varies based on buyer location"? I can only select sendle when I choose "flat rate:same cost regardless of buyer location".

    • Lucifersfury82 on 01/03/2023 - 20:24

      Sendle will come up as an option (regardless of calculated/flat) IF they service the area. It’ll only be seen when the buyer has paid and your about to print the label.

      • grayadamson on 01/03/2023 - 20:37
        +1

        I had Sendle as an option for posting an item, and it turned out they didn’t actually service the area at all. They gave the parcel to a third party who then claimed they dropped it at the local post office and… that was it. The box was never seen or heard from again.

        • I Smell Pennies on 01/03/2023 - 21:01
          +2

          All Sendle deliveries are passed onto third parties. Couriers Please and Aramex

          • grayadamson on 01/03/2023 - 21:13

            @I Smell Pennies: Couriers Please and Aramex are the standard couriers Sendle uses, but yeah they are technically third-party couriers. Specifically I mean from Couriers Please it was punted off to a third-party courier (I guess at this point a fourth party) and then it went AWOL.

    • whyisave on 01/03/2023 - 21:09

      Within AU, I just put a fixed cost for shipping,
      knowing that AusPost and Sendle are pretty similar in price,
      because I already I know which AusPost satchel I will use.

      However, Sendle is more expensive to send to regional parts of Australia,
      so, I've been inclining to use AusPost more these days.

      To depend on Sendle means, you have to rely on their couriers to pick up from your place
      or pick up from their nominated pick-up locations, etc. etc… and AusPost hast been OK, even if they're sometimes slow.

      • Luigimarinara on 06/03/2023 - 21:11

        Its depends on location with sendle but can never get Aramex to collect. Couriers please will always collect. Aramex tend to do the regional ones which is where the prices go up.

    I'm getting the 'something went wrong' message when I try to generate a label

    • vee_el on 01/03/2023 - 20:40

      I've had the same issue previously. I've tried to use the "first Sendle label on ebay is free" promotion previously but every time I click generate a label, I get the 'something went wrong' error message. Have contacted live chat several times about this but they're useless. They keep saying that they're working to fix it but it never gets fixed

      • videoman on 01/03/2023 - 20:50

        I think that error happens when the buyer has an address that sendle doesn't deliver to (usually an Australia Post PO box)? The worst thing is that even if you list the item as a sendle delivery the buyer can still buy the item and you have no way of posting the item with sendle).

        • nicholasv on 01/03/2023 - 21:15

          You can restrict sending to PO Boxes, but doesn't mean all addresses will be fine to send via Sendle

    • Bargain321 on 01/03/2023 - 21:11
      +1

      If you check their address sometimes buyers put the City in the suburb field eg. Sydney/Melbourne etc instead of the actual suburb so the postcode doesn't match the city postcode and therefore can't generate a label. That's my experience anyway.

      Sendle is not great (and dearer) for regionals. Metros, especially in NSW and VIC are usually very fast.

        And also, Couriers Please for me has always been on time. Aramex is just terrible to the point they dont even pickup my parcels

  • seanbaussie on 01/03/2023 - 20:41

    Sendle are absolute rubbish and I wouldn’t use them for free or even if you paid me.
    They held a parcel I sent for delivery at one of their pickup points for 2 weeks, kept saying they were going to pick it up ‘tomorrow’.
    The buyer was rightly so on my back about where the goods were that they’d paid for.
    In the end, only lodging a lost item claim with eBay got the parcel actually picked up. Then about a week later they managed to get it to the recipient.
    About a week after that they emailed me to tell me they’d delivered it.

    • bargain_knight on 01/03/2023 - 21:01
      +6

      Similar thing happened to me. In the end I retrieved the package and had to send it Australia Post Express at my expense. Fool me once.

    • whyisave on 01/03/2023 - 21:13
      +1

      I used to have great service with Sendle - locally & internationally.
      I've had amazing next-day service from SYD to MEL, just paying normal package rates,
      but
      I've had terrible service sending a very small parcel (size of 3x pack of cigarettes),
      over 14-km within Sydney metropolitan suburbs, ie. they lost the parcel and it took a total of about 12+ days to arrive.

      The other thing is, eBay are muscling in on the delivery business,
      and want to monopolize this, away from AusPost…and I fear it will become like the eBay USA system,
      where the sellers are so reliant on the whole "Global Shipping Program",
      that they get so dumbed down to using only 1 method of packaging & shipping, and it's annoying as a buyer,…haha

    I will never trust Sendle after they lost a package I sent, 'found' it a week later and then promptly lost it again. That was in the first week of November last year and I'm still chasing them for compensation.

  • souljah on 01/03/2023 - 21:00

    God dammit. Just postrd something for $42 yesterday but could have waited until today and to rub salt in posted 2 more things today at $36 and $16. F

  • neonlight on 01/03/2023 - 21:08

    So these labels you just print them from eBay account still onto parcels but how do you actually post them? Log a request via sendle and someone pick up?

    • whyisave on 01/03/2023 - 21:20
      +1

      If you don't have a printer or cannot print,
      you can write down a code that eBay will give you,
      and you write this code on your package.

      Sendle will pick up and from this code, generate/print the label for you.

    • I Smell Pennies on 02/03/2023 - 01:07

      On the labels page, you choose whether you want pickup (free) from the courier or whether you want to drop off at a sendle location

      • Jackson on 02/03/2023 - 10:18

        For some reason it seems that writing the code is only an option if you are having something picked up, and not sending from a drop off centre. I don't know why this would matter, you rpbably could still do it

  • xaces on 01/03/2023 - 21:12

    Have used Sendle a few times and don't recommend it if you want your parcel to arrive on time. Parcel to the same state took 1 month to deliver.

  • Tafe on 01/03/2023 - 21:13

    Sendle will take your booking even if they have no available subcontractor to make pick/up delivery.

    If you a lucky and have a good Aramex/Couriers Please franchisee in your area it can sometimes work out better than Auspost, but you are running the guantlet.

    I think they are an abysmal company… YMMV.

    I've found Sendle to be quite decent, between the capital cities of NSW and VIC.

    I've sent even a bicycle rack, all packaged up, via Sendle, and they've been great,
    and also sent internationally to the USA, without any fuss.

    I've also had odd instances and weird situations, where Sendle have 'lost' packages,
    eg. within Sydney metro, etc.
    ( I can't remember the examples, but I remember feelings about Sendle,..hah)

    These days, I just send via AusPost regular/express satchel, knowing the price of sending it anywhere in Australia,
    rather than Sendle charging me extra afterwards, because I breached their weight and/or cubing measurements.

    I actually have kitchen scales at home, when weighing up items to calculate postage…haha

    With Sendle, you just need to print the labels yourself,
    or eBay has made it easier now, where you just write down the 'code',
    and Sendle do the printing of the label for you.
    Still, you rely on someone coming to your residence to pick up the item, etc…so you can leave the items outside your door, etc.
    Otherwise, you take it to their drop-off points, eg. some convenience store, etc.. .and they pick it up from there.

  • Excelsior on 02/03/2023 - 09:03

    Have been using Sendle for metro deliveries and so far no issues. The caveat is I've always dropped them off at the local pick up point - tried using their home pick up service and the courier never came even after sending me a confirmation that someone was going to. Never again.

    • Vita85 on 02/03/2023 - 09:30

      Yeah that's happened multiple times to me. The pickup service is notoriously unreliable. I've sent a few hundred packages using sendle. Mostly when it has been 50% off and free. It has worked fine so far. Best to use the drop off service.

  • Jackson on 02/03/2023 - 10:22

      This is an exclusive promo between eBay and Sendle. You’ll need to sell something so you can print a label for that sold item only.

      I got a question. How does charging someone for postage and claiming this work? or do you offer free shipping?

      • I Smell Pennies on 14/03/2023 - 22:36

        It doesn't matter whether you offer free shipping or not. This deal is claimable for any 3 orders as long as Sendle services that address and the address is not a PO box

        • Sheng on 14/03/2023 - 22:36

          What happens to the postage then if you charged them? Basically covering if they ain't serviced by sendle.

          • I Smell Pennies on 14/03/2023 - 22:41
            +1

            @Sheng: Whatever you charge them, you get to keep. Whatever cost you endure (no matter if you send through Sendle or Auspost or other) that is your expense. If you charged $15 postage and you used a free Sendle label, then you profit $15. If Sendle charged you $20, well you lose $5. One way or another, you need to find a way to get the parcel to the customer.

    • I Smell Pennies on 14/03/2023 - 22:37

      now the option is greyed saying "we couldn't get a quote for this service"

      Is it a PO box? Sendle does not send to Post Office Boxes. If this isn't the case, maybe the address is not serviced by Sendle atm

      • 4foxache on 18/03/2023 - 14:24

    Anyway, can someone else please post this deal, as I’ve never posted one and can’t handle the pressure.
    I /leant find T&C’s, but I took screenshots.
