Quick question about combine shippingon ebay.

Bornagaincollector · Sep 6, 2011

Ok i had a buyer bid on 12 of my auctions and has already won 2 of the,Nothing highend.My question with ebay taking a % of shipping now,how much of a discount do you give the buyer on total shipping?

I was thinking .25 for each addition auction,does that sound fair? So it would be around 5.00 shipping on 25 cards.I'm thinking this is fair because of the % ebay charges.I would be lucky to break even.

Are they all single card auctions?

If they are all single card auctions, that is a total of 14 cards. Let's just say 5 ounces. That is around 2.50. So I would charge a flat rate of $3 and be done with it.

That is if you don't want to make money on shipping.

Just my opinion.

I agree - when combining auctions on low end auctions I never go over a total of $3.00. 9 out of 10 times you break even or better with the shipping so it isn't a big loss to lose some cents when somebody buys a lot of auctions. It gives the buyer more incentive to spend more on your cards.

I'm going to do 3.50 for all of the auctions.After adding them up,i still come out ok.
