Do you have 2 accounts you can play with? If so, I recommend starting a listing on both accounts. Ship orders with tracking on one account and ship orders without tracking on the other account. After a month or two see which account is more profitable.

If excludes all risky destinations then its definitelly the non tracking post account .

Can some of you math heads calculate the break-even price on a 85 cent item sent via $2.66 assuming 10 cents for packing and a top-rated powerseller discount?

I sell a lot of low dollar small items like that and I use super cheap letter rate postage but I purchase the non-machinable option. Check your measurements. They don't allow items of a certain thickness to go through. I rarely have that problem with my items. You always have some people who will lie about not the receiving the item so I don't' recommend doing this with expensive items. I will get 2-3 people a day (out of 60-70 sales) telling me they didn't get the item and either want a refund or to reship the item. If they ask for a refund instead of the item they are instantly added to my block list. If they've done it more than once to me they are instantly added to the block list. Out of the 2-3 people telling me they didn't get the item a small percentage of those end up on the block list.

The item is 1 oz. and around 1.5" in diameter.

Sounds like it's in some sort of tube. USPS hates tubes.

Promotional Pen with custom name? 1 oz is pretty light... flash drives?

Phaz0rz knows his shipping forward and backwards.

I've done this in the past. I got 2-3 per hundred phony claims on EB, and 1 per 200 on Etsy. Says something about the type of customer base.

My policy historically is always to resend even if it shows delivered, so it didn't really make any difference if they lied or not. It cut my shipping costs in the US by about 50%, I wouldn't do it with international shipments, though.

It was 88 degrees at Orlando Disney today, partly cloudy, and crowded. Got back to N FL tonight, current temp is 71 at 11PM. We had one day below 42 in the past 12 months. Got to love living in Florida. :)

I'm told Canada gets frozen water falling from the sky in the winter. Sounds like he**. :)
