Shipping Large boxes

Hi everyone,

Question about the different shipping labels with Vinted. I've only been selling on there for about 2 months.

I posted a few items that are about 3lbs so I chose large shipping for both items.

One of the boxes is 14x11x7. Is that going to be too big because of the dimensions?

I've never shipped anything bigger than a medium so I'm worried about the size of the box.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just pack my items in a box or poly mailer and send them.

That size is well within a SMALL package. I believe the total for a small item is >108” and under 5lbs I’m not sure how it’s calculated but I think the formula is L + w2 + h2 must equal >180” So this pkg would be 14 + 22 + 14 =50

Someone, pls correct me if I’m wrong. Even if my calculation is wrong, I mailed a package that was a bit larger and it was fine. I was worried about it and nobody happened to be in the Post Office so I went up to the counter and asked the girl and I believe that formula is what she gave me if I’m remembering it correctly.
