postage cost

[strayashop]

Hi

As a new Seller of ebay, how to get cheaper postage. For example, any smallest item cost to post is $9.30 on Australia post. Many sellers list products under $9. How can we do that? If i want to sell a computer mouse or mobile charger, it cost me postage $9.30 but already it selling on ebay for $9 or less. How does it happen. Please advise. thanks

If you're selling mice or chargers, most of your competition is from China. The Chinese government subsidises postage on exports, so Chinese sellers don't pay Australia Post prices. Nor do they provide quality products at that price.
