Why I always use the s shipping calculator
How many times have you won an auction only to wait ... and wait ... and waitto geplete the transaction because the vendor did not include his S H costs?FRUSTRATING ISN'T IT ???I believe that most sellers don't use the available shipping calculator because they are afraidthat they will be short-changed on their shipping and handling costs.I have used the shipping calculator on ALLof my listings since DAY ONE. IT WORKS !!!I only use USPS priority shipping with delivery confirmation.All that you have to do is click the Calculated tab instead of the Flat cost tab to open the shipping calculator menu.I assume that you have a postal scale? (readily available on many okay listings - search: Postal scale)By simply showing the weight, (including packing material and the box) and your nominal handling charge, the correct shipping and handling charge will be available to potential buyers prior to bidding.AND will automatically be added to your final invoice.As I stated, I always ship delivery confirmation and I always add .50 as a handling charge for that purpose.That's it !! So Easy !!If you prefer to ship parcel post (why??) or if you prefer to give your buyers the option of parcel post, you can do that also. NO PROBLEM !!Other choices are Media mail, Express Mail etcBelieve me, you will save time answering questions about your shipping costs and your buyers will appreciate your efforts.Give it a try !!Sorry to say, but in my opinion, the only reason NOT to use the shipping calculator is becauseyou are one of those HIDDEN SHIPPING COST RIP-OFF VENDORS.You know, the ones who give okay a black eye.Sell a 99 cent item and charge $29.99 for shipping...SURE !!BE AWARE THAT okay IS CRACKING DOWN ON YOU GUYS AND GOOD RIDDANCE.
