Re: Advice needed on shipping

– – – – on the subject of selling and shipping – – – –
if you are going to advertise a large item for sale on the world wide interweb.
It would be in your best interest to get the item ready to ship before listing it.
then you will have the box on hand, you can tell the customer the size, weight, etc
of the box…… then you note that the buyer is responsible for the packaging, handling
and shipping fees……. you should not put your hard earned money into free handling charges.
Even if you are thinking of listing it for free – the advice is still recommended for the shipping info.
I sell a lot of stuff on ebay and have learned a lot on how to fine tune the shipping process
so as not to loose money or break even if the packaging and handling fees are going to be costly. (in time and money).
If it is a last minute thing like someone asking here for an item, and you have it, just tell the
person that you will get back to him on the exact packaging, handling and shipping fees……….
Steve – great packing job on that motor, BTW.
