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?
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.
Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted?
QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted...
The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it.
Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017.
