Cheapest possible shipping rates

Question

My item is 49" in Length x 2 inch × 2 inch and weigh 2lbs.

Only problem is the length which is 49" inch (little 48 inch).

Because of that, cost gets 3x to 4x and cannot afford to sell or even offer calculated shipping as its unaffordable for buyer compared the item price is less than shipping cost.

So I couldn't able to list it and worried to sell.

Any suggestions!

Hi @upwardniche

Once shipping costs rise above half the item's price Sellers are at risk for losing money on a transaction if the item is returned ... and so that you know, the DEFAULT No return policy on eBay listing tools is no protection against returns being forced on Sellers.

That item may have to be sold elsewhere or you can list it with Local pick-up only.
