Best shipping method ?? | Auction Sniper

orchiiMember

Hello friends,
I've started selling on ebay very recently and one of the biggest problem i'm facing is that the shipping cost takes a big portion of my profit. I sell CD's for like $6-$10 dollars and when I send it via U.S.P.S it costs me $4-$5 dollars including the box. If I want to charge my customers $4 dollars for shipping, they wouldn't buy it.

So I need to know what's the best and the cheapest way to ship items to the customers. Please let me know. Thank you very much.

Look on Ebay and see what other's charge and how they ship items like your's. If I were shipping them, I would buy the small bubble envelopes and ship in them instead of a box. I think you could ship for half, including the cost of the bubble envelope, if you buy them in bulk.

And, why do you keep insisting on advertising that car site here? Most would rather you would not. Thanks

I'm in the UK and it's an American site so I definitely don't want to see it here. Desist!

Before I opened this thread, I had a little bet with myself. I won two out of two... (counting me, easy to get three)
