Default Ship First Class USPS International

Have a bunch of smaller items (10$ items ), that I want to ship international. First Class viable? Or will I loose more in the long run?


Thinking to charge about 15$, which should have some overhead for losses. Good idea or bad?

It depends on the weight. Anything up to 4lbs is first class. Even if you go priority mail you do not get a tracking number that tracks outside of the USA. You have to step up to Priority Express mail for that. Which is crazy money. If they are going to screw you, they will. Careful on charging too much extra, as then they will hit you on shipping DSR scores as a lot of INT people I ship to know what is costs.

4lbs applies to parcel post or flat rate priority letters I believe.

It has been working good for me. I blocked specific countries that have been problematic. I sell mostly to Israel and Canada and they are usually fair and honest. Sorry if this offends any one but block italy, mexico, brazil, argentina, Russia
