One thing the local post office workers told me is that for an item to go as a "package" as opposed to a "letter" was the 3/4-inch thickness. I sell a lot of flat items like collectible magazines, comic books, etc, that often go in envelopes. They advised me to insert a couple pieces of cardboard to make it over 3/4 inch thick without adding much weight.

@TheChaChingKing Жыл бұрын

Interesting tidbit that I did not know. THANKS!

@jeremiahblundon4877 4 ай бұрын

As a Postal Employee I can confirm this. The reason it matters is I believe tracking for a flat (magazine)/letter is a fixed rate; usually around $8-$9, as it's not based on weight but putting tracking on something that doesn't normally come with tracking. So making it thicker to qualify it as a package could reduce shipping costs. This is my understanding as a Carrier, a Clerk would be able to give you a more specific on prices for a letter/flat. To my understanding the only options for tracking on letters/flats is Certified which needs a signature for $8 or a small envelope that has a tracking number on it and you put your letter in the envelope, which costs around $9.

Ive watched this video 3x and will probably watch it another 3. Its very helpful. My main issue right now and choosing the price for shipping on my listings. I saw you last video where you talk about different weights and pricing, but how do you know how much its going to weigh ahead of time, if you dont know which box you are using. Also, do the flat rate boxes always have the same price for their assigned size? Thank you Scot for all the help. Because of your channel, I am actually taking the plunge of starting my resale journey.

@TheChaChingKing Жыл бұрын

You are so kind! I truly appreciate it. I know a lot of the weights just from experience. But you can always weigh the item and add some for the box and packing. It won't be exact, but it will probably be very close. There are two types of flat rate USPS boxes. The true flat rate ones, like the padded flat rate and the medium flat rate, have a specific charge regardless of where they are going or how much they weigh. The Regional Rate A & B boxes charge 2 pounds and 5 pounds respectively. So, they vary some depending on where they are going. So, if you have an item under 15 pounds that fits in a Regional Rate A box, it'll get charged at the 2 pound rate. And, above all else, it WILL get easier with more experience. Don't be afraid to make a mistake. I still make mistakes. But I'm smarter with every one.

It ships at a flat rate based on distance instead of weight. I think it is the 2 pound rate regardless of how much it weighs. So, if I had something that weighed 7 pounds shipping to Hawaii and it would fit in the Regional Rate A box, it would be far cheaper than just shipping in at the regular weight. Does that make sense?

Thanks Scott you are awesome. I am going to be starting up again next week after a two year stay in the hospital. I love all of your tips and great advice that you give online. You are a great guy with a lot of morals and we could all learn a lot from you. Wish me luck as I jump back into the pool next week. I’ll be watching your videos for more good stuff. Thanks again my friend.

Hey Scott! I've been noticing that you and other resellers are not printing out packing labels. Is there a particular reason why you chose not to place one in your packages? (Still learning what is needed and what isn't!) Thanks~Wendy, fellow Texas Reseller

@TheChaChingKing 2 жыл бұрын

Good observation! I have never included a packing label unless I've been asked to. One of the worst reasons in the world to do, or not do, something is because that's what you've always done. Lol. But it isn't the only reason. While it might eventually happen, it has never caused an issue for me. Despite thousands of sales, it's just never come up. So, I don't include a packing slip.

@@TheChaChingKing I place a packing slip in every package, I will also write a "Thank You" note on the slip and sign it as well...takes a little more time but I find buyers really like getting a written note of thanks. The shipping slip also serves as a insurance if the package ever become damaged in the mail (has never happened) so that the shipping service knows who shipped it and where it was going..

I'm wondering if I misinterpreted something. With the Carhartt jacket, you made a change with the box size and adjusted the shipping weight, correct? The larger box was cheaper than the smaller one or did I really misunderstand this example? :) Thank you! ~Jules

I was wondering the same thing...

@TheChaChingKing 2 жыл бұрын

I probably just wasn't clear. It just would not fit in the smaller box. So, I cut out all of that trying to keep the length of the video watchable. But, it just wouldn't go in the smaller box, at all. The bigger box seemed cheaper because it weighed one pound less than my estimate.

@jag4442 2 жыл бұрын

@@TheChaChingKing Next question: When you create a listing, are you entering shipping weight for a more accurate amount or just guesstimating at the approximate cost?

@TheChaChingKing 2 жыл бұрын

Most of the time, we know the shipping weight just from experience. The rest we make an educated guess. For example, i know if an item fits in my 12x9 ziplock, it will fit in either my poly mailer or the priority padddd flat rate. So, ultimately, on those items i only need to know if it's under or over a pound. If I really can't estimate it, I weigh it.

eBay is the worst-selling platform for customer support for the seller. All the customer's agents are from India, the auto eBay system is garbage... I don't recommend it at all, now they have increased the fee starting at 13%, and Facebook is 5%.

@TheChaChingKing 4 ай бұрын

I could not disagree more. I've had great customer support from eBay. I've tried Facebook marketplace and it just didn't work for me. But if it's working for you, awesome. I hope you have continued success with it.
