Shipping Sidekick Joins the eBay Developers Program

Aberdeen, SD (PRWEB) February 20, 2007

Webplus, Inc., a leading provider of small business solutions, announced today that it's Shipping Sidekick (http://www.shippingsidekick.com) shipping rate comparison website has joined the eBay Developers Program to further develop Shipping Sidekick for use by eBay sellers.

Shipping Sidekick makes choosing which parcel shipping company to use a snap! When sending a package, users simply enter the destination and package information to quickly and easily compare the shipping cost and delivery time of each shipping company allowing the user to choose the shipper with the best price for the delivery time needed. Published rates from UPS, FedEx, USPS, and DHL are provided on one screen, side-by-side. Each delivery company's ground, rush or priority, and overnight shipping rates are included. Gone are the days of having to go to each shipper's website to get their rates. Savings of $3-$5 per package are common.

"eBay sellers make up a good portion of our users," said Jacob Lakhany, Business Development Manager, Webplus, Inc. "Shipping Sidekick gives eBay sellers 2 more shipping options, FedEx and DHL, in addition to UPS and the post office which are already integrated into eBay. These additional shipping options can save sellers substantially as often there's a large difference in price between shippers for packages going to the exact same destination. As such, we have joined the eBay Developers Program to develop new features which will make Shipping Sidekick even more useful for eBay sellers."
