redbeard6. Yes perhaps a way ( also saves on success fees on shipping). However my gut instinct says buyer like certainly on delivery price and speed of delivery, which your method does not give. My gut feeling also suggests a fall in sales due to this. Many of my items are large and long which most casual ticket buyers would struggle to get a ticket for as outside normal courier size. Also casual ticket sales prices are way higher in price than sellers can buy at with a courier account. Effectively making the total price more expensive and inconvenient to the buyer. No votes for it from m...
Agree the templates ( I use tradevine which will likely by similar to my products) help changing. But I would probably have nearly 180 templates. Each template has 6 shipping options. If there was a tweek that could increase shipping by a certain % on all templates that may help, but unfortunately not a feature. It is complicated more in that as I use a combination of 6 carriers, a % tweak would only work for one and not the others. So its not just my concern about rising shipping prices ( we have to adjust annually for the carriers annual rise anyway but that one change takes me many hours...
Just wondering what peoples thoughts are on shipping. Fuel prices sky high. So FAF (fuel adjustment factor) changing fast. Typically freight and courier companies changed FAF monthly with a 2 month lag. Now companies are rapidly changing to adjusting FAF weekly with no lag. Some courier companies have stated they will bring the annual price rise forward by 2-3 months as well. Just today one of my couriers lifted prices 7.1%, and with weekly adjustment they may rise each week with present volatility. So how is a trader supposed to keep up with shipping options on listings? Suck it up? or cha...
Bank transfers are not banned by TM. They simply dont show up as a payment option in the preordained list provided by TM
Was asking a question on a listing today. I noticed after that their is a small red bin icon after the question. So is this a new thing? Never seen it before
Once you have tradevine active (or it maybe when you are on a paid plan, My products is no longer available
A bit depends on the exact shipping wording. Auckland super city goes from pretty much waiuku up to just north of wellsford and includes gt barrier and Kawau Island. BUT carriers zone their auckland area differently, never with any of the islands. Some carriers have an inner Auckland area (Papakura to Albany) and an outer Auckland area (papakura to Waiuku and Albany to Waiwera or Wellsford.) which is a different higher charge. Almost certainly heavy freight that would be carrying a large item like a bed would charge considerably more for the outer areas
In our listings next to the price is a TM inserted word in brackets (each). So if you are selling 10 widgets as a pack or lot, and you state in your listing that listing is for 10 widgets, but next to the price TM have written "each". So this automatically puts uncertainty and confusion in the potential buyers mind if the price is per unit, or price is for all 10 items. We all know people dont read listing details properly (if at all in some cases) and they just Zero in on the price with (each) sat beside it. I get so many questions each week asking if price is for each unit or for all 10 ...

I have heard that you can see unanswered question in certain categories only, but dont know the detail of it. But that does not explain why you can see it when logged out on your business account, but cannot see it from your personal account
