How does printing a shipping label work on eBay ?

I just sold a small electronic item and I’m confused with shipping it out. So, if I choose to print a shipping label, does that mean I have to provide my own box and wrap it myself ? Then, what do I do after printing the label ? Is the postage fee the only fee I have to pay ? Which service has lower rate, UPS or USPS ? Thank you for answering !

    Obviously you have to wrap it and box it yourself! Does it magically appear?
    UPS is preferred as they give you a tracking number. If you don’t know how to do it, why did you even get started?

    Hi,
    I use USPS shipping labels to mail items, whichever you choose, pack carefully & add delivery confirmation.
    Before you actually print they give you an option to print a sample label.

    UPS is a publicly-traded company (ticker: UPS) that stands for United Parcel Service. USPS stands for the United States Postal Service and is a quasi-governmental agency. USPS is self-funded through the sale of postage stamps and delivery services.

    Who’s Cheapest & Best

    Is there a rule of thumb on what is the best way to ship – parcel post via USPS or UPS? Or perhaps someone else? I know UPS includes $100 insurance automatically but USPS charges. Any insight would be great!
