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.

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.
