FREE SHIPPING ON EBAY

This has always been a high point to buyers, sellers also like to option this idealism here at ebay. There really is no such thing as free, the seller wants $2 for an item BIN (Buy It Now) or Auction style. Now add $2 price from seller + $4 shipping = $6 sale. There's nothing wrong with this.

SELLER BEWARE

Selling on ebay with free shipping & handling.

$7.00 final sale + FREE S&H = 15% charge from ebay = $1.05 X 100 sales = $101.05 monthly fees. This doesn't even include listing fees.

$3.00 final sale + S&H $4.00 = 15% charge from ebay = $0.45 X 100 sales = $45.00 monthly fees. Not including listing fees.

WHEN YOU CHARGE FOR S&H YOU PUT $56 BACK INTO YOUR POCKET BASED ON 100 TRANSACTIONS.

When you charge for S&H ebay can't charge S&H 15% fee only the final sale. When you sell with FREE S&H ebay gets to charge you the entire final sale 15% or higher depending what item you sell. This only puts more of your hard earned money into ebay's pocket. If you never sell enough to reach discounted sales, you're really working for yourself and ebay at the same time.

OFFERING FREE S&H

I had a family member sell with free S&H when they use to sell here at ebay. Rob sold TV Guides, after one year """"FREE S&H"""" was hard on the wallet. Rob never reached ebay's discount seller status, so Robert ended up giving 15% on all his final sales which included 15% collection from ebay on S&H fees that the seller has to pay eventually. If Rob had only charged S&H fees this part on sale has no 15% charge. Rob had more sales with this option, but as I said nothing is free.

I KNOW SOME WILL DISAGREE WITH ME ON THIS GUIDE

I just had someone ask me about free S&H, so I decided to write a guide on how FREE S&H is great for buyers here at ebay, but eventually puts the seller out big time. Nobody really comes forward to give free information, I wrote this guide for those who are wondering about free S&H here at ebay or new sellers. It's important that when you sell you understand what all bases cover. FREE S&H puts more money back into ebay's pocket simply stated from a seller who offers this option while conducting business here at ebay. Well I just answered that persons question with this guide.

WELL, I WANT TO SELL MY BOWLING BALL BUT I OFFER FREE S&H 

______________ THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ON FREE S&H (((FICTION))) _____________

My bowling ball is signed by John Elway, last time I checked a bowling ball like this one sells for $35

I just checked S&H, wow I have to get at least $23

Well lets see here, I want to lay low on starting auction bid so $23 + $7 puts me at $30

OK starting bid is $30 with FREE S&H. After sale I have to give $4.50 back to ebay as a final fee.

I only made $2.50 on bowling ball after I paided for S&H and ebay fees.

_______________ EXAMPLE #2 + S&H FEE (((FICTION))) ____________

 A John Elway Ball signed, I got some action here. I mean auction, yeah! Last one sold for $35

I'm going to start the bid at $12

I know shipping comes to $23

Wow I sold the bowling ball for $12, after sale I gave ebay  $2.25 plus I got S&H paid by buyer. I cleared $9.75
