greyhound is cheap for shipping large items
other than that, if you want cheaper shipping get an account with ups or fedex

even with an account...UPS and FedEx will still be more expensive shipping large items. they dont like shipping large packages and when they do...they charge a lot for it.

I don't think anyone is going to tell you what they sell for a decent profit.
That is their little secret...

KNOW your shipping cost and paypal fee and let the buyer eat it in their shipping total. Either that or jack up the price and give free shipping
make at least double what you paid for your item.

double aint shit, aint worth the wasted of time, i make about 10-15 times what i pay for my items, not gonna tell you want it is, but i make good cash. i dont work, i own 4 cars, 4 atvs, pay my college tuition, and still have spendable cash.

actually most of the time some of my items end for lets say 200-300 buck, the shippin usually covers shipping it and what i paid for the item, lol. usually its pure profit.

lol dam yeah getting double profit isnt worth the hassle and that's what I'm noticing especially with ebay. I've slowed down my selling alot since school started because of how time consuming it became.
My mom sells purses. She buys them for 15 bucks and sells them for 45. Lots of dumb people out there.
