Hi I am run an online store on ebay. There are a few orders everyday to ship out. What shipping supplies you will choose to wrap? What shipping supplies are the best cost-effective? Where can I get good quality shipping supplies at reasonable price? Are there anyone has experience with this? Thank you for your share.

I try to use recycled boxes and packing material whenever I can. I get boxes from work. Any large company that does any shipping and receiving probably throws away dumpster loads of cardboard boxes that are perfectly good. Just look for the brown recycled cardboard dumpster and ask them if they mind if you take some. Most places probably won't mind.
News papers make good packing for a lot of items as well. They can be had for free if you ask around. A lot of people pay to get rid of them, just have a few friends or neighbors save them for you and soon you'll have more than you know what to do with!
If you use priority mail or some of the other USPS services you can get free boxes/envelopes at the post office or at www.usps.com they will even ship them to you for free! Or, you can buy them with pre-purchased postage.

Uline.com is excellent and low priced.
Browncor.com is even cheaper. Both companies have no minimum order, so you can order something as low as $4 and have it shipped to you.
Remember that you can get free boxes from the post office as well, they even deliver to your door.
