creating a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ courier tracking system?

lots of options, sellers stick with the lower prices carriers though...

couriers give you tracking included in prices and you add more cover if you need it.

USPS is equiv of Royal mail, and for under 2kg dimensions 35x45x16 cm it is £2.85 without tracking and if it is INR you can claim for £22. If you pay an extra £1 it is tracked and you are covered for £50.

with Royal mail though, when the dimensions are bigger the price shoots up, so people then go for couriers...

So when people say they dont have enough profit to cover shipping they are making a couple bucks max as a general rule?

Well yeah, it's the post office fault they aren't making a profit....."stupid tracking".

I suppose it depends on your point of view, really low value stuff is obviously sent economy, but someone might think as low as $15 is worth covering

I bought a couple of things on ebay over xmas and they arrived tracked and they were worth very little....and then I am sometimes surprised to get expensive stuff stuffed though my letterbox with no tracking.....

noob sellers often make mistakes, experienced ones can usually gauge the right price cover balance.......
