If you are still with us, then you know how to mark an item as shipped on eBay manually. We have shared a couple of methods so that you can use either of them depending on your preference.
Whenever you have shipped the item, you should mark it as shipped as soon as possible. However, you should wait for the payment confirmation from the side of the customer. After you get the confirmation, you can add the tracking number to let the customer know that the item is on the way.
