Re: Free shipping or charge
pros and cons of free shipping-
top rated seller gets 10% discount on FVF of item,not FVF of shipping,so what some do is roll shipping into item price and offer free shipping to avoid paying FVF on shipping and get a bigger 10% discount on the item price.
but if the buyer wants to return the item ,and pays for the return shipping,seller will have to refund in full,which means he lost money on shipping the item to the buyer.
of course if the buyer files item not as described,then seller will have to pick up return shipping,plus refund original payment in full.
