3.00 shipping on dvds
 

is there any way around the lil fee of 3 bucks when shipping dvd's

i sell several dvds on each listing..kinda like a box set thin and the weight and i choose not to use media mail...

However i dont offer free shipping

any ideas

I ship mines via First Class with Free Shipping, mines ranges from $2.00-$3.75 each, there is no way around it unless you print your own labels, and state that the dvds weigh less than 6 ounces, but if you get caught they will most likely send the items back to you, there is no way around it as far as I know unless you ship the movies without case.

Mines are 1-2 disc dvds btw, not boxsets.

You guys have nice dvd ship prices.

I thought first class was 13 oz or less.

Would dvds be consider as media mail?

I ship them media mail unless the value is over 50 dollars.

I ship mine first class, free shipping always, it cost less than $2 since they are only about 5 oz.

I also ship DVDs media mail but,first class works.
To get around eBay's $3 shipping rule for that category just list box sets under
'Wholesale Lots'. ;)

First class for 5 oz means the singleton DVDs right? Not boxsets

yes,it is only for single dvds,there are many different weight for boxset,some are 1.0kgs,some are up to 3kgs each set .

there box sets kinda of they have weight to them and i did not wana use media... i remember the day s my shipping would cove my cost and then some .. i still figure if some one wants it so what.. plus boxes.tape.peanuts and man power add up

i dont get it do you have to pay the fee before you list, not at the conclusion of the listing? there has to be some way around that rule

Listing fee depends on what amount you start the auction or BIN.

Calculated shipping and add handing cost... There are no limits to handling costs and buyers only see them added to total shipping cost.

You cant add handling fees to flat rate shipping...

Also eb has FVF on shipping fee - dont forget to factor that in.
