Be prepared for people wanting to treat you like you are amazon and asking for shipping discounts that you can't afford.

People do that?! Especially when unless you're someone like amazon (who probably have their own fleet...), shipping can be ridiculously expensive. :(

Re: Etsy

Yep, I've had people ask me for insane shipping discounts. When you sell very rarely it's impossible to get discounts because most discounts that mailing services offer are for bulk shipping, it's harder for individual sellers.

I know it sucks to pay for such expensive shipping but it's not like the shipping money goes into my pocket, I just charge what the post office charges me.

It even drove me to stop selling internationally on ebay because that's usually when people want discounts, and it's a lot easier to just do a flat rate domestic box.

nayrt - Oh, they'll do that and worse. Even though your stuff is handmade (and that's the reason why they're attracted to it), some people will have the attitude that your pricing should be the same price as mass-produced, low-quality crap from overseas. They'll want to know why your hand-dyed, knitted scarf out of alpaca wool costs sooooo much more than the scarf they saw at the Dollar Store or Wal Mart. They'll want to know if you'll knock a few dollars off the price if they buy two, or whatever. You'll get PMs asking you for custom orders with a bunch of garbled, barely literature instructions, and then you'll never hear from them again.

I've been selling on eBay for a few years now and I haven't had that happen to me yet. Maybe I'm just lucky, but my customers seem to understand that shipping costs what it costs and don't have a problem with it. I even sell internationally and I haven't had any complaints about the shipping, even when the shipping cost more than whatever it was the person bought.

I think you're lucky because literally my first week back on ebay (after being away for several years because I wasn't selling or buying from there) I got people requesting different shipping prices then what I could offer.

Re: Etsy

You're very lucky. I've had international buyers who don't understand that I have zero control over their package once it leaves my hands. They don't have realistic expectations of how long international mail takes and get impatient with ME about it. And I only charge what the post office charges, I don't even charge people for the packaging.
