WHAT WOULD YOU DO

this happened to my daughter, what would you do

she purchased 3 separate small items  that was $4.00 each with free postage that went into a large letter $1.40  very light weight .

now what would you do as a seller they can all fit and weigh in a large letter under the 125g weight  would you send it in 1 large letter or separately  or send it in 1 large letter and give a refund for postage  or no refund

this is not a trick question ,its all about what the everage ebay seller would do, i am curious .


I have no answer to how the average seller would package the items.....one parcel or separate parcels but definitely no refund of postage.

By ebay rules, sellers can give a discount on postage but not on the item cost.  If the items are listed as Free Postage there is no postage to discount.

For what it's worth -
In case A - I would send them together, but send them an extra complimentary one.

In case B - I would send them together, Express Platinum because of the value of the goods, and include an extra gift.

 

That's in the world according to Sue, which is a simple, uncomplicated world.

My answer to your daughter's sales would most likely be A, but I can see why some sellers would choose B (that was sending them together?) if there was no tracking.

 

My answer to your son's sales would most definitely be A because if someone bought something off me and it cost $90, it would be going with tracking, for sure. The other items weren't cheap either, from memory, so ditto.

 

 

To me, I don't see the examples you gave as identical because although all involved the infamous free post, the price difference of the items was radically different.

A seller might be prepared to take risks with a $4 item, but not a $90 one.
