Solid advice here 👍 a couple points from my experience (which may be different as a UK seller): Etsy's customs labels/VAT info etc for international shipping is inadequate. Strongly recommended reading up on the correct way to fill the form & editing Etsy's or just writing your own. Also, Etsy charges fees on shipping too. This includes any offsite ads fees (which can leave you out of pocket by about 25%)
For calculated shipping, do I put the weight of my item in its packaging? Or the item itself? I’m selling stickers so the sticker itself is about .03 oz but in the envelope it’s .28 oz
Thank you for this video! I would love to know how I structure the shipping if I was to sell fabric? I could put in the weight for one yard, but I don't believe Etsy recalculates shipping, for example, if someone purchases 10 yards...weight and size of package will be different! This is what is preventing me from listing. Any help is greatly appreciated!!😊
I went strictly free shipping several years ago. I sell vintage items so each sell is unique unless I have multiples. I checked on Etsy for items similar to check what the other sellers are charging for shipping. My customers do realize the shipping is added to the price, but nobody has ever complained. I thought this tutorial was clear and concise. Thank you.
