You are an experienced seller, but not in the past year, as evidenced by your lack of Detailed Seller Ratings.
And you are in a very crowded category.
For your cards I would suggest using Free Shipping. Of course, that really means that the cost of shipping is included in the asking price.
Which is cheapest?
$1 card with $5 shipping?
$5 card with $1 shipping?
$6 card with Free Shipping?
And of course, you will not be charged shipping FVF on any shipping (even SuperSpeedyInternationalGoldPlatedRocketMail) if you offer Free DOMESTIC Shipping.
If any of your cards are authenticated or professionally graded, that should be mentioned.
You offer a fancy copy of Moby Dick. The people who want these will be searching on the Publisher so that should be in the title. If there is illustration inside give the artist's name too. And try scanning the cover. Flat things work best from a scanner which also allows you to crop and enlarge details.
WINNING BIDDER KINDLY PAYS SHIPPING FEES FROM CANADA.
'All caps' is difficult to read.
Use miniscule and majescule letters.
Use < br> to paragraph since chunks of text are also difficult to read.
And frankly the bolded statement above is kinda silly. Do you really care if the buyer pays kindly or grumpily? Sorry, that use of 'kindly' is one of my bugaboos. Don't get me started on 'jibe' and 'jive'.
As long as you are setting up your S&H correctly, the buyer will be billed for shipping (or you can go for Free Shipping on lightweight items).
I'd suggest changing that to 'Shipped Next Business Day from snowbound Petanguishene, CANADA.' or 'Shipped by Canada Post Air Mail' to indicate that this will likely be crossing a border.
