Shipping to Puerto Rico
Does anyone know what it would cost me to ship a 3 oz., 11 inch x 7 inch x 1 inch package to Puerto Rico from an American State. I know that it is part of the U.S. but I am wondering if even though it is part of America is there extra shipping costs or regulations that I need to be aware of? Any info on the situation will be helpful. Thank you in advance.

Mentor10 months ago@jushi-3364. I just wanted to clarify that you can ship Ground Advantage to Puerto Rico but it will take much longer than Priority.

Mentor10 months agoPuerto Rico is a US Territory and is served by the USPS just like the rest of the country. It costs the same as if you are shipping across the country. You want to make sure to use a Priority Mail service as this goes by air and any ground service goes by boat.

Mentor10 months ago@jushi-3364 The buyer will see the shipping cost on the listing based on the package size and weight your provide for calculated shipping. It's not any different than shipping to the state farthest from you.
Here's a link to the shipping calculator>> https://www.ebay.com/shp/calc/rates
For shipping from the West coast to Puerto Rico the cost is 5.20
I was looking at your listings and your shipping prices do seem to be on the high side. Is that on purpose?

You either have incorrect package weight and sizes OR you have accidentally selected irregular package on the listings which adds $4 to the shipping cost.
See this post for how to remove the irregular package cost>

OP10 months agoThank you so much for your answer. I am newer to eBay so I'm still learning the best way to ship stuff. I will look into my shipping costs though and see if I can drop the price for my customers. Again I appreciate the feedback and the links you sent. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
