Cheapest way to ship a piece of clothing?
Hi all, I am selling some clothing and the item weighs just over 13 ounces, making it ineligible for USPS first class mail. Unfortunately, this is by far the cheapest way to ship this item, and any other shipping method would really cut into my profits.
I wanted to know if anybody has a better way to ship this item? The item by itself inside the plastic weighs 12.70 ounces. I was planning on shipping them in a padded envelope, but an envelope that accommodates this clothing puts it over the 13 ounce mark.
I was thinking of just completely wrapping brown tape over the plastic that the clothing is already in. This would cover it completely and probably still keep it under 13 oz, but do you think buyers would not like receiving it like this? Or it wouldn't matter?
Anyone have any suggestions?
