hi everyone its Lindy so I wanted to do just a really quick video about how I go about charging shipping on my eBay listings this is actually a question that I get asked quite frequently sometimes people don't know whether or not they should do a calculated shipping if they should do a flat rated shipping or if they should do a free shipping option and so I was just going to tell you about my mindset and how I go about charging shipping to my buyers so I'm really going to do my best not to confuse anybody so I'm going to try to go slow and I'm going to try to cover all of my bases okay so most of my items that I have in my eBay store this is most of the items that I have in my eBay store I charge a flat shipping fee now the reason why I do this is because I know exactly what the shipping is going to be on that item whether I know that it's going in a priority flat right so I know exactly what the shipping charge is going to be or I know the exact weight and its first class and so that way I know exactly what it's going to be because whenever you ship something priority in a priority flat rate it doesn't matter where it goes in the United States it's that one flat fee same thing with first class wherever I send it all over the country it is going to be that flat first class fee so when I have an item that's either first class and I know the exact weight or it's going in a priority flat rate I do charge a flat rate in shipping now how do I decide what I'm charging the flat rate and shipping well usually I do not charge exactly what the shipping is I count it as shipping and handling so what I will do for example if an item is going to cost me six dollars to ship it in a priority flat rate I will charge six ninety eight for shipping so that the overage after I pay for the shipping label that we'll help my that will help with costs of shipping supplies it will help with any fees incurred with the eBay selling you know whether it's the you know 10% off of the shipping label the 10% final value see things like that so there are reasons why companies will charge shipping and handling they will charge you a flat shipping and handling fee because you're not just paying for the postage you also have to pay for their time packaging you have to pay for the supplies that they use packaging you have to pay for any number of things that's why it's called shipping and handling so I don't charge an additional handling see on my items instead I will charge a flat shipping fee and the overage from the shipping fee - the cost of the label is considered handling shipping supplies these things like that the only time I do not charge a flat fee for shipping is if the item is over a pound and does not fit in a priority flat rate envelope if that happens that's when I select the option calculated based on buyer location because that way you know wherever it goes in the country whoever decides to buy your item that way you know whatever shipping cost the buyer pays will make sure to get that package to the buyer there has been more times than I care to admit that I had assumed that I knew how much shipping was going to be and lo and behold the buyer pays the shipping that I asked them to pay and it ends up being more than that now that's not the buyers fault that's my fault so I did that one too many times and that's when I started switching over to calculated shipping based on buyer location but again that's the option that I use only if the item weighs over a pound and does not fit in a flat rate that is the only time I use that option if it fits in a priority flat rate or it weighs less than a pound and I know exactly what the shipping is going to be I always charge for a flat shipping fee and I always charge a little bit more than the cost of shipping to cover the cost of shipping supplies and handling now I do still use free shipping but the only time I will use free shipping is usually on retail arbitrage that I want a flat amount for I'm not taking a best offer on that item and I know exactly what the shipping is going to be again meaning it weighs less than a pound and I know exactly how much the first class rate is going to be or it fits in a priority flat rate if it weighs over a pound if I know exactly what the shipping cost is going to be and I have a flat dollar amount that I want on that retail item it's not best offer it's just a straight-up buy it now then in that case I will still use free shipping now of course this is just how I do it I am genuinely curious to see how many of you do use a flat shipping fee or if you just do it calculated or if you do free shipping so I'm really interested to know what you guys are doing leave it in the comments let's start a discussion about it I'm really curious I've been doing the flat shipping cost for a while now and I found that it really really helps with my bottom line and that's why I continue to do it you wouldn't necessarily think that but it really does it seems like that extra you know 75 cents that extra 90 cents an extra dollar it really helps with the cost of fees and current it really helps with your cost of the shipping labels of the poly mailers you know tape bubble wrap it really helps with those shipping supply costs just that little that little overage after the shipping that you charge with the flat rate shipping fee so I'm really curious to see how you guys are doing it do you charge a flat fee to do you just do it based on buyer location do you only charge them for the shipping label what do you do I'm curious to know right you guys thank you so much for watching if you liked this video please give me a thumbs up and let me know you have any questions or comments feel free to leave them in the comments below and if you haven't subscribed to me yet I hope you will thank you guys again so much for watching I will see you with my next video
