Economy shipping is a great way to save money on shipping costs. If you want to sell something on eBay, you should consider using economy shipping. Shipping costs and services are really important when becoming an online merchant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When selling goods you always need to ship them to the customer. So, finding the right way to ship your goods, where you can widen profit margins rather than make a loss, can be the key to making money as an online merchant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are a few things that will affect how long and the cost of your shipping services<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are shipping internationally you will need to take this into account. Domestic shipping costs will be less. Whereas if you ship to another country you will likely have to pay more for the delivery. Delivery times can vary with international shipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The weight of the goods you are sending will also have an effect on the price of shipping costs. Heavier items will always cost more, and lighter items will cost less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The speed at which you want your parcel to be delivered. Depending on what you are selling or what you have agreed with a buyer, there are multiple delivery options, for varying prices, that will decide when your package reaches its buyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the next section we will go into more detail about different shipping services and what to expect from them, as well as economy shipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even when the courier changes they still offer the same levels of shipping services, simply expect the time and price to vary slightly by courier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expedited shipping will fast track your goods onto the transport that ensures your parcel arrives earlier than what is commonly expected. This could be next day delivery or maybe a day or two after. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While expedited shipping is much faster, you are paying for the speed of delivery so isn’t cost effective to use every time you send an item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Standard shipping is the most common shipping service. Standard shipping will usually ensure that your package reaches its destination within 3-5 working days, usually. This is subject to change as external factors may affect it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While not the quickest, standard shipping is reasonably priced and remains pretty effective. Most customers will expect this unless you state otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is worth noting that both standard and expedited shipping will offer tracking, again, depending on the courier. This is a security measure that provides due diligence. If a customer complains that their parcel is late or undelivered you can keep up to date with what is happening with your parcel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, what is economy shipping?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
