I am a long term purchaser of postcards and have noted the recent increase in sellers using a GSP to ship these items.
Whilst I appreciate sellers choose their preferred shipping methods, why is it that a few sellers insist on using a GSP, with no other options available to buyers, to send small, low cost items, e.g. postcards from the USA when the GSP cost is 2 or more times the value of the postcard? Surely sellers must realise that shipping costs play a big part in the decision to purchase?
Postage for a card from the USA is usually $2 to $5 but using a GSP, shipping ranges from $20 to $30! It would make sense for sellers of low cost items to be required to provide shipping options rather than just insisting on using a GSP. Can anything be done?
