Economy Shipping Estimates

[mercurial333]

I put in Free Economy shipping ( 1-10 business days ), yet when I look at the Delivery estimate in the "Shipping and Payments Details" or simply at the "Delivery" section at the top ( FASTT 'N FREE ), it also gives it about 4 days or so, and that's including handling time.


I'm TRS, so I'm not sure if this changed when i got upgraded or not.


The problem is less buyers pay for expedited now, since the Free Shipping option gives an estimate of 4 days instead of 12 or so like it was before. My expedited shipping options were pretty low and almost every other buyer chose expedited before ( before as in 4-5 months or so ).

You are setting your shipping to plain economy and not first class or priority?

probably has something to do with buyers location and being TRS. IE you are looking at your own listings from same zip code it should show fast n free and they should get it in 1-2 days.

Put in a different zip code and see if its different.

Of course not, how am I supposed to bank on shipping?

Made probably only a modest 600-700$ from Expedited Shipping last year, but I'm sure somebody else with more volume can cash in a few thousands on expedited shipping per year.

Be careful of profiting on shipping costs - some buyers may catch on to this and complain.
