Questions

How do I calculate shipping cost on eBay?

Enter the ZIP code you ship from, the buyer's ZIP code, the package weight and its length, width and height. The calculator returns every service eBay offers for that package with the discounted eBay label price.

What is the cheapest way to ship on eBay?

For most packages under 1 lb, USPS Ground Advantage is the cheapest tracked option. For heavier items compare Ground Advantage, UPS Ground and Priority Mail, because the cheapest service changes with weight, size and distance.

Are eBay shipping labels cheaper than the post office?

Usually yes. eBay labels are discounted, often 20% to 50% below the retail counter price, and the calculator shows both so you can see the difference.

Should I offer free shipping on eBay?

Free shipping can help a listing stand out, but the cost comes out of your profit and eBay still charges fees on the item price. Check the label cost here and the fees in the eBay fee calculator before you decide.

Can I ship books and DVDs cheaper?

Yes. Media Mail is a cheaper USPS service for books, DVDs and other eligible media. Tick the Media Mail box to see it.
