I am a seller on eBay and have always wondered how some people can have such low shipping on smaller products like DVDs and BlueRays for example. I use the Shipping Calculator and I always end up with 10.00 - 15.00 shipping with expedient? Do I sacrifice speed of shipping for lower price?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
dmil is almost right. Most of his advice is very good, but Letter/Light Packet is not insured and seller's should be ready to add a few pennies to offset the very occasional loss or claim of loss.
US sellers of movies cannot* charge more than $4 including insurance to their customers. Canada Post will ship a 200 gram/2cm thick envelope to anywhere in the USA for $3.70.which allows us 30 cents for packaging and self-insurance.
*This is of course an over-simplification.
