Hello, generally, to get the most bids and visitors to your auction, it is always best to offer free shipping. Further, Listia offers bonus credits for holidays or special occasions for auctions that are listed with the offer of free shipping. Also, it builds trust in the buyers on Listia that your auctions are real and you are dependable as a seller. but, when you start off asking for exact shipping or requesting that the buyers pay shipping up front and you are new to the sight, it will greatly reduce your bids because you have not 'established' yourself yet. Yes, they do pay real money on here, but it is up to you how you want to receive that money, of course, it has to be according to Listia rules for shipping prices (you cannot charge what u want) certain things have limits on the amount you can charge. You can find out much more about this by clicking on the customer support option at the bottom of the auction page. This will take you to a wealth of rules and information about Listia. However, you have a very nice auction item and I hope you get what you expect in the way of credits. also, if u do decide to pay shipping of your items in the future, it is best to ship WITH tracking, because if the receiver says they did not receive the item and you can't prove you shipped it, you will have to give them their credits back. Tracking proves yo sent the item. just a little info to help you get started. Good Luck with your auction:))
Yes I am new.Am I understanding wrong,are you saying what credits are bid by the highest bidder who wins,the credits go over to me fore my use on stuff I want
ok BornBrost usps shipping is always differnt according to weight and distance plus if you box anything it's higher cost because it becomes pracel post. I would adjust shipping cost to include your materials as in bubbe wrap cardboard foam tape labels printer ink this is what people forget even tho it's only about $6 to ship we have addedc cost of $2- $5 for special boxes and other stuff sold in stores.
Thank you for this info.I am going to guess before I know where its going its going to be about $10,00 to ship it.I mailed 3 puzzle books to my daughter from her stuff she has here and those alone cost me more
small flat rate box is 5.90 anywhere in the USA. Plus it includes free tracking# and $50 insurance.dont ship until you receive the $ then you ship the phone. you can accept $, money orders, paypal, its up to you. the credits will transfer to you in 10 days or once buyer receives item.
