The free box from the PO requires you to use Priority Mail.  The medium 
flat rate box domestic now costs $11.30 on-line to ship (more if you pay at the 
PO).  Cost of the medium pay-by-weight and destination on 3 pounds is $5.49 
to $13.40.  Media Mail on 3# is $3.43.  USPS won't let you ship used frozen 
pizza boxes (about the only salvaged box commonly available that 
approximates the medium flat box.  The same size generic (plain white) box from U-Line 
cost $2.24 each last ones I bought.

I won't comment on asking prices other than to add to what someone else 
said that although eBay owns PayPal, PayPal charges a fee for getting 
reimbursed for actual shipping cost and eBay adds the full cost (not what's left) to 
the total they charge a final value fee on.  So you get charged two fees on 
the same dollars.  Which even the IRS can't do.
