What Options of Shipping we can offer you

10 of 15

01 - OVERSEAS SHIPPING - It is advised that you obtain a "happy" cost from your local Post Office for sending items overseas. i.e. Shipping to the UK is $45.00. You cannot have varients of prices per individual countries.

I have found that the best way to sell overseas is to have your client request a quote (which the Full Online Business Solution sites allow). The client knows the price of the item, then you just obtain a price for P&H and subsequently send the client the invoice.

If you are intending to sell overseas please note the information re overseas payments above, in particular bank fees.


02 - FREE SHIPPING - Sounds Crazy but This is a very popular method with Online Shop Operators. You simply include your P&H within your Item listed price - and the incentive of FREE POSTAGE is there.... it works very well - Remember it is the figure at the end that the customer is really concerned about - what is it going to cost me all up?

03 - FLAT RATE POSTAGE - This means that if you send one item or ten the postage rate is the same. i.e. you have a flat rate postage of $10.00. It cost $10.00 to send one item or $10.00 to send five items. Again you need to allow for this in your item costings. I guess it is a case of "what you loose on the Merry-go-round you pick up on the Ferris Wheel.

04 - TABLE RATE POSTAGE - cost figures used are just as examples

Shipping on one item cost you a set fee i.e. $10.00
Shipping on two or more items - up to a designated number is $18.00. (lets say two up to ten items = $18.00)
Once the order exceeds the designated 10 items - i.e. 12 online orders then shipping is FREE.

Again you would need to consider your listed price for the items.
