New USPS Postage Rates

[hoqc]

As shipping rates are about to have a big increase as of 01/19/2025 have questions. Shipping from New York to California is going to be about $8.85 for a 1 pound envelope. Has anybody used calculated shipping if so would like to know if it works for what you are selling. Trying to keep shipping reasonable.

Calculated shipping works great. If you want to keep shipping reasonable for the buyer,  select for the buyer to receive the eBay discounted rates. I never have a buyer question shipping costs when giving them the eBay discounted rates. 

You actually lose a little that way. 13.25% of the total shipping cost, ebay keeps that as part of the Final Value Fee. Buyers like to see a reasonable shipping cost.
