I don't tend to have this problem as my patterns are sold as pdfs, so postage is free.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06560731782657483713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30635856.post-49701755654291496802008-10-01T20:06:00.000+01:002008-10-01T20:06:00.000+01:00Ditto would clearly state postage cost and maybe e...Ditto would clearly state postage cost and maybe even quote from royal mail site?* Sarah *https://www.blogger.com/profile/15205041071479219769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30635856.post-65318651471367672062008-09-08T22:41:00.000+01:002008-09-08T22:41:00.000+01:00Sarah's advice is great - I'm from the US - but ha...Sarah's advice is great - I'm from the US - but have traveled extensively through the U.K. and European Union with many relatives living there - so I realize how expensive postage is - if it's posted clearly - you don't leave anything to chance. I don't believe in upping your price to absorb the shipping for your UK customers as well. It is what it is - and you don't want to alienate any of your regulars ♥<BR/><BR/>Your work is GORGEOUS - I'm adding you to my blogspot list of faves!lulunastampshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01228522413596429921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30635856.post-34373918083729546092008-08-21T17:13:00.000+01:002008-08-21T17:13:00.000+01:00When I was a powerseller on ebay, I used to charge...When I was a powerseller on ebay, I used to charge postage at cost plus the cost of packaging - and I broke it all down in a little table at the bottom of my standard sales template - current UK postage charges by weight band - along with a link to the Royal Mail site. <BR/><BR/>I never had a single complaint (and sold in excess of 4000 items mainly to the US)<BR/><BR/>Having said that - my p&p - because it genuinely was at cost plus a tiny amount for the polybag - was lower than most of my competitors so I guess it would have been difficult for them to complain.<BR/><BR/>Once your buyer receives the package they will see the p&p amount clearly on the parcel, so that should reassure them that there is no ripping off going on.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17511786178397090250noreply@blogger.com
