eBay Shipping


5 Easy Steps
eBay Shipping


Step 1:
 Find what it is you want to sell and an envelope or box that fits your product. Make sure that you are using a bubble mailer for envelopes, that way the product doesn’t get damaged. I suggest adding tissue paper or newspaper around items that may move in a box or an envelope.

Step 2:
Follow my guide to sell items and start  an eBay post.


Step 3:
Select the Calculate shipping link.






Step 4:
 Click the down bar to select if you have an envelope, package or box. Enter in the dimensions of your item in the shipping package or envelope. Enter in the weight of the item. I use a little kitchen scale for this.




Step 5:
 Select your shipping choice from the given options. Make sure you click on eBay rates they offer cheaper shipping options.



Side Notes
Buyers want to have free shipping. I offer free shipping as much as possible. When I have items that have $3 shipping but I am charging $25. I usually incorporate the price of shipping into my list price so that the buyer has free shipping. There are occasions where I don’t offer free shipping especially when the shipping is more than the item. For example when I sold an old pair of my son’s shoes for $5 the shipping was over $12 so I had the buyer pay the shipping that way they didn’t think I was pricing the shoes for such a high price. When pricing items its really important to incorporate the shipping cost.

All About Spelling My Half Way Through the Program Review Review of the All About Spelling Level 1 My Background I have taught reading, writing, math, organization, and social/emotional/behavioral in a special education classroom for 4 years. For the 2017-2018 school year I decided to work part time and home school my 7 year old son who has autism.   Which sent me into the world of home school curriculum.   How we Found All About Spelling My son has grown in the area of reading with the All About Reading program so I was excited to see that they also had a spelling program. The website recommended starting the spelling program once Level 1 of The All About Reading program was completed. I decided to start the spelling program when my son was about 75% of the way through the reading program. The timing was perfect, I think he could have even began it sooner. He has had previous spelling instruction so it was an easy transition for him. ...

My Top 5 Money Saving Tips

50% Income Decrease How We Survived My Top 5 Money Saving Tips 1. No Cable -  We asked our internet and cable provider to take off our on demand cable service. This took $70-$100 off of our bill and that money went to other things. We have Nextflix ($10 a month) that we can watch on our TV and our family enjoys watching YouTube together. 2. No Name Brand Clothing -  This was a huge change for me. I enjoyed buying my 8 year old son clothes from Mini Boden and Tea collection because the quality was amazing. I cut out name brand clothing for my son and replaced it with cheaper options form Target and Old Navy. The only exception to this rule is that I do buy name brand jackets and shoes for my son (which are great for resale on eBay). His clothing expenses went from $400-$800 per season to $150-$300 per season. 3. No Eating Out -  When I was working full time it was really convenient to pick up fast food a few times a week and we would g...
