selling post free

What do others think? I think if we sell our items as is and let the buyer know the postage, the buyer is better off.  Further there is more of a level playing field with similiar items when buyers are charged postage it makes your item more expensive . Yes I know it all pans out, but many buyers are in a hurry and sometimes do not read the  fine print.

 

I would really like to know what other sellers think, I think Aussie buyers would like to know the cost and then the postage cost.

 

For example for some of my fabric the postage is actually $1.20 but because I post in hard cardboard with plastic inserts to allow for rain , the actual cost to me  is is about $1.90 or more I would like the buyer to know this and  be able to decide on that factor.

 

For example I purchased from a shop on ebay recently, the fabric was wrapped in glad wrap, with no note, and in a paper envelope.

Excuse me? Yes this shop can keep cost down and so would I if I did this, but not appealing to the buyer at the other end. Further I would not buy again for this  'power' seller.  Thanks would like feedback
