I am curious as to what sellers using calculated shipping fees charge for a handling fee?

[kussacat]

Any suggestions on what is a good fee/amount to charge for a handling fee or do sellers charge a handling fee for shipping? I would appreciate some suggestions - thanks.

I don't really.

Most of my items ship in a poly envelope (11 cents each from emailers.ca) and I have a good deal on postage stamps (heh heh) and then there is a discount on Paypal labels.

So my packaging costs are pretty minimal compared to say a china dealer.

I notice that most of the garments I've bought lately come in about the same amount of packing, no matter what the price or the origin.

Has everyone seen the admail from Canada Post today?

claiming up to 47% savings on shipping?

I haven't looked into it yet.

up to 47% if you have a Canada Post Solutions for Small Business membership and are at the level 4 of discount savings (more than $7500 of shipping purchased per 12 months).
