Default Shipping Costs

Posted By: painthistorian

Service should be the most important thing offered with shipping on E bay..We spend a lot of time and money making sure that the customer gets the item fast and safely..The average cost to us to mail a graded card in a bubble envelope with labeling, packing materials etc and DELIVERY Confirmation/Insurance($50 to $100) is $3.50 PER PACKAGE..WE SHIP MANY OF THESE..Add multiple cards and the weight increases..Average cost per package on VINTAGE Professionally graded cards should be $4-$7 depending on value(under $200) and weight..Once you get multiple card orders or expensive cards, priority boxes are needed..REMEMBER service and integrity also play a big part of the overhead..You need quality people to keep the shipping efficient...and of course to make sure the customer is satisfied...
