HELLO,

I AM A SELLER AND BUYER AT TIMES. I SELL A LOT OF MUTIPLE ITEMS TO BUYERS. THE PROBLEM I RUN INTO IS I OFFER COMBINE SHIPPING. THE COMBINED SHIPPING IS TO HELP THE BUYER NOT TO SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON SHIPPING COST. ALOT OF BUYERS WILL JUST GO AHEAD AND PAY FOR EACH ITEM SEPARATELY WHICH IS GREAT BUT BUYERS IF YOU WILL WAIT FOR  AN INVOICE ALOT OF TIMES YOU WILL SAVE ALOT OF MONEY. FOR INSTANCE I SELL ALOT OF BUTTONS BY THE GROSS (144 BUTTONS) SHIPPING AND HANDLING ON ONE GROSS IS $1.50 EACH, 2 GROSS WOULD BE $1.50 ALSO THEN USUALLY IT IS $0.25 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL GROSS BUT ABOUT 50% OF THE BUYERS  BUY 10 GROSS OF BUTTONS THEN PAY SHIPPING AND HANDLING OF $1.50 FOR EACH GROSS WHICH ADDS UP TO $15.00 WHEN COMBINED SHIPPING WOULD ONLY BE  AROUND $4.00 BIG DIFFERENCE! I HOPE THIS HELPS SOME OF THE BUYERS TO UNDERSTAND THE COMBINE SHIPPING. IF YOU ARE BUYING SEVERAL ITEMS FROM ONE SELLER AND THEY DON'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT COMBINING SHIPPING THEN ASK IT IS A GREAT WAY OF SAVING LOTS OF MONEY!! EVERYONE HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
