I've used Munbyn for over 3 years; no nonsense, easy to use and flawless so far.
I sell on ebay, I also work for Royal Mail so if anyone has any questions let me know.
So glad you mentioned recycling packaging, I haven't bought any packaging materials for years now. I am always box hunting in shops got a supply in the loft too 😂

As someone who has been selling online for almost 17 years I have to say everything you've mentioned here is bang on. There's nothing in your video that we don't have here also!
Hi Nic… nice video again, I’m a frequent viewer and also a fellow reseller…
With regards to shipping I find using a QR code and letting whichever company you use print the labels is best… no cost, auto updated tracking etc… I would only suggest a label printer if you’re shipping more than 50 plus packages a week…
Keep up the great videos 👍
Hey bud, mind letting me know how you buy qr codes on ebay? Whenever I've clicked to buy a label, it tells me about the qr codes, but doesn't actually let me buy them.
@@whygamingwhy2404 I just click buy postage and then my code is emailed to me… great service but I believe only possible to use PayPal at the moment to pay for the shipping
I bought a Munbyn a month ago and love it. I did have to change the speed and darkness of the settings as the ink was coming out too black for the post office to scan the labels but once that was sorted it worked fine. Really love it now.
What are your speed and density settings please ? My 129 print is faded and missing some of the info. Thanks
@@jamesinbradford5882 I use 5 and 1 but it was too dark before
@@liannehill748 I’ve sent the 129 back today , I might see what else their is out there. Thanks anyway.
Really useful video Nic, always look forward to yours. My number one essential is storage space. No problem with brown tape here, but I'm sure there are good and bad ones. Regarding weighing scales I use a dog weighing scales for large items - bought for a few quid in a charity shop. A tape measure is an essential for checking box sizes. I'd love a label printer but can't really justify, or find space for one at present so I print labels on a laser printer on A4 paper then fold it and put it on with a tape dispenser, yes takes slightly longer but works for me.
I've had my Munbyn printer for about a year or so now and absolutely love it. Never have any issues with it. With the money saved printing my labels through royal mail's click and drop compared to buying postage at the counter, it basically paid for itself in a few months.
I order free thermal 6x4 labels from UPS (just had 12 rolls with 500 labels on each delivered the other day), so that's another bonus freebie to look out for
Hi, I really appreciate your comment. I'm looking to purchase a thermal printer but was put off by the cost of labels untill i read your comment, many thanks 👍
@@clairerandall9715 just sign up for a free account with ups and you can claim free labels and/or other packing supplies
I've tried to open a UPS account and it's asking for Company Name and VAT number. Do you have to be registered as a business to get free supplys?
@@clairerandall9715 I wonder why they didn't reply
@@DanWhoResells lol yeah i did wonder if i would get a reply haha. It would be helpful for everyone reselling to know such tips and tricks. I was tempted in make up some information to create an account but i might find myself in trouble lol. Since I wrote my comment I bought some UPS labels for a reasonable price on ebay untill i can work out how to get them for free.
Like you I bought a Zebra 2844 label printer....it was a retired from a local UPS store...it was refurbished and has done yeoman duty since my purchase....Thanks for info on this new printer that is now available...but I think I am good with my Zebra....
Great vid Nic. Bought my thermal label printer a couple of years ago after watching one of your vids... never looked back, game changer. Also, got my first colour laser printer last week and now feel like a proper grownup !! Take care.
Great vid Nic, could you do a video of you going to a shop that your not a regular at, and asking for boxes, for your business, i am not forward about asking for things, would be great to see how you go about this, which may encourage others
Hi nic been watching you for years great inspiration as a full time reseller myself keep up the good work I’m looking at investing in a label printer as it’s going to save allot of time in the long run
I totally agree with you about tape. The brown tape, wherever you get it from just doesn’t stick. Tape guns… a whole different ball game. I am unable to use one in a satisfactory way, I get in such a mess. Perhaps it’s an age thing!!
Me too. I find them a nightmare
I've used tape guns when I worked on a warehouse. Never a problem
I'm not a reseller but do sell a fair bit on eBay and often post stuff out, returns, etc.
I have the exact same label printer - but with the labels on a round roll type reel that sits in a cradle directly behind it. Pretty decent device and it wasn't hugely expensive. I believe all in for the device, the cradle and 500 labels on a reel I paid around £150 ish.
I have it wired via USB to my PC, I have heard it doesn't work with Mac/iOS but there are workarounds but can't say i've tried them.
Great vid Nick; would you walk through lighting, photography, background for mainly clothes and I’m starting there first just to declutter. Unsure about that and just starting out so needs to be basic until I can upgrade.
Cheers mate
Might switch to the Munbyn looks great, I have my old faithful Labelwriter 4XL but it's not wireless and its a pain to change the label roll
I used your link an got mine 103 pound with 2 year cover. I had 30 pound off and a 30% discount to well happy.
Hi, does anyone know if when buying postage through royal mail app will i have the option to print 4x6 labels from the app? I saw that when i use the website it has this option(didn’t had before) so wondering if the app has been updated. Ty
I found watching you is so helpful in selling myself
Selling yourself is going too far... Just buy second hand items and sell those
@@marciapowell8102LOL 😊
Yess reusing packaging is definitely the way to go
Prefer clear to brown absolutely. I've found it sticks better too!
Shipping Supplies & Label Printers: I get all my bubble, foam and air pillows from where my wife worked. Get a lot of my smaller boxes as well. The guy who runs the Receiving Dept keeps it for us, as he unpacks the volume of commercial goods the company receives. We just drive into town every few weeks to collect it by the vehicle load.
I use a Rollo Label printer and can attest to it being difficult to set up for printing eBay labels (new, right out of the box) with my older Mac Book Pro laptops. Had to call Rollo and have their customer service rep find me a suitable downloadable Print Driver and show me how to add a custom label to the list. The set up info packed with it failed to work. The old Macs lacked a 4x6” choice. having old weird sizes and size formats in their stock choice list. It’s fine now, but the initial set up was frustrating.
You're best - and most helpful video to date. Thank you! I have changed to ONLY using clear tape as well, as it does stick better. I will geta tape gun and save time. Still a small eBay seller (hand writing labels), but appreciate the links to supplies and the common sense approach to saving time using a tape gun. Well done you!
Nice printer that, looks all singing all dancing 👍 hope it helps you when you have done all your picking and packing
I've still got brown tape left from years ago.
I switched to clear and as you say, it's much stickier!
Very useful. My son has started to clear out all his dr who and star wars toy sets from when he was little. He’s autistic and collecting them was his thing then. He’s sold quite a few on eBay but I noticed he wasn’t putting the right postage on things so he was losing out. Do you weigh your items when you list them with packaging. At the moment we are just seeing what others charge when they sell similar. We are new to selling so don’t have a clue.
Thanks for the great video - just ordered my first label printer Nic (a Munbyn) with your code - looking forward to getting it set up and waving goodbye to Pritt Sticks + wasted paper 🤦♂
My question is
Can you print wireless from phone
I use Apple air print for printing
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Hello nik great video, one question, do you think its easier and cheaper to print Instore , or purchase a printer ? Which is the cheapest postal service to use ?
Hi, does anyone know if the Munbyn printer works with the free business 6x4 labels?
I've been using a Munbyn for 2 years now and chose it because it was so much cheaper than buying a Zebra and I hate following the reseller herd (🥁). At the time was only a bit more than £100 from Amazon and has saved me so much time over printing on paper
Ive not built my business up enough yet i think, but am looking forward to a label printer to stop writing the addresses the most !
As well as the 5% off there is a further £30 off until 23/07/2023 or whilst stocks last on the featured 941B printer, total saving £38.50.
You should have a think about using drop box to get pictures from your phone to your laptop in seconds, it's free.
Tape guns are so divisive. I can't stand them 🤣 Definite vote for clear tape though! I find the easiest way to list is the ebay app and a bluetooth keyboard, the only time I use the PC is for multi-listings.
Shelving, work surfaces and lighting are other things you find change over time
I have the label printer, it’s saves so much time. I get my labels free from UPS, they sent me a box of 10,000
Great video really enjoyed watching that
Still prefer the zebra simply because it keeps the labels internally.
Yep I prefer the zebra, this new setup is like a old version of how it used to be
loooking like a hunky fluffy owl
Nice one Nic 😊
Hi nic just watched the video, can you confirm that the munbyn printer can be used with eBay packlink???
Yes I use mine with Packlink
@@marlowbulldog6033 no issues with labels not being read by evri scanner?
@@alanrussell266 No issues, but for some reason when I use Firefox browser the labels aren't as clear, so I switched to Edge and they are good. I've used all carriers on Packlink with no scanning problems.
Would love to know how people get on with Munbyn and Bluetooth set up. I can’t see anyway to make it work. Websites aren’t any use, very disappointed
Clear tape is way more stickier than brown tape in my experience
Clear tape is definitely better it’s all I use now
No no no label printers are so last year... Use the QR codes and print in store... Maybe when you've as many solds as you get everyday but for resellers selling up to 10 a day QR codes are the way to go... I'm 57 so don't say it's too modern
I ve found the same, QR codes have been a game changer for me. I just write the post code on the parcel to avoid mis-shipping. Previously used 4 to a sheet self adhesive labels in my cheap to use Samsung mono laser printer and printed wirelessly from the pc or phone
@@ianbullock5621 yeah with royal mail I do a screen shot of their qr code and then write the last 3 numbers of the code that's under the qr code on the parcel.
With evri you also get a number under the qr code which you can punch in manually on their machines to get your label. Write that number on your parcel to avoid mistakes
Since everyone joined the rip-off Britain bandwagon the brown tape hardly sticks at all now and there's even less on the roll. Also I bought some fragile tape recently and the 'Fragile' words were printed in massive letters and spaced further apart so they hope we will run out quicker and have to buy more of them lol.
I think that I bought something off you. The Royal Mail informed the police, who called the bomb squad to examine it.…
That’s what happens when you label a parcel F-R-A-G 💥😂💥
NIC invest in AI robot do it all for you choice of male or female awesome ??????
In my experience it's a false economy to buy cheap packing tape, brown or clear.
This is great video. A few points.
3" tape not 2" tape, or whatever british measurements you people use. :)
Absolutely use a label printer. Label printers don't transpose numbers. Label printers don't have messy handwriting. Label printers have a dozen OTHER uses for labeling things, not just printing shipping labels. Everyone I've ever talked to who resells, myself included, has the same story as Nic, "I resisted getting a label printer for way too long." etc etc. The MUNBYN is probably a fine product, it looks exactly like a Rollo, but no, in my experience they are a terrible company that doesn't support their products.
Void Fill. I used rolls of butcher paper bought from restaurant suppliers. In the US we have a company called "Smart and Final" that sells huge rolls, and I just find that the butcher paper is much better than the "news print" style rolls, because they are firmer, and don't require you to use anywhere near as much, and provide better drop protection.
Your videos used to be a lot of fun and very informative......now they are just overlong adverts, shame.
i still use an old a 4 printer and tape the lable on cant remember the last time i changed the ink tbh
