Half.com — an eBay company that purchases and sells books, games, movies and music online — has added the USPS shipping platform to its website. The addition means an estimated $10 million in package business for the Postal Service.
Half.com lets sellers offer products at fixed prices. Like its parent company, Half.com is not a retail site and has no physical stock or inventory. It offers a place for individual sellers to list their items and potential buyers a central location in which to view them, providing a standardized transaction and money-exchange process.
“Half.com’s addition of our shipping platform further strengthens our relationship with eBay and drives much needed package volume and revenue,” said Mary Anderson, manager, Domestic Sales Support. “The shipping platform provides a seamless label–printing experience on Half.com and helps sellers operate more efficiently.”
With the USPS shipping platform, Half.com sellers can print labels faster with pre-populated shipping info, instant PayPal payment, USPS tracking and package pickup. Shippers also can compare shipping services, include custom information in labels, and track and manage their shipping labels.
