How do you guys sell when shipping costs so much in Canada?
Summary: jo.sjor.rqoor2l expresses concern about becoming a new seller on eBay due to high shipping and platform fees, giving an example of a Google Mini sale that results in a loss after costs. mer-de-noms suggests using Stallion Express for more affordable shipping options in Canada and internationally. However, mrdutch1001 and brettjet38 point out that not all sellers have access to services like Stallion Express, and also mention that the thread is outdated (from 2020). kh-leslie closes the thread due to its age, inviting participants to start a new discussion if needed.
Hello,
I want to be a new seller but it seems like its not worth it due to the Shipping costs and Ebay Fees. For example I have a google mini for sale on here for $40. $10 cheaper than retail.
I some how got the Google mini for lets say $25. so $15 profit if I sell it
Canada post charges $16-20 for bare bones tracking service. leaving my profit to negative $5.. oh and Ebay fees not included. So it seems like I would need to over charge customers more than retail or basically almost steal an item to sell on here to cover the shipping costs. Any advice? The only option it seems to just sell local

·3 years agoI sell from Canada and I use Stallion Express for items that need tracking and insurance. I get lower shipping fees across Canada, and much lower to the US and international. Their insurance rates are cheaper too, it was the only way I could compete with other sellers.
