Is Your Shipping Policy Going to Enslave You on December 24th?

Happy December Everyone!

I am sure your eBay sales are hopping. I know we can hardly keep up with the listing demands as so many buyers are buying on the Buy It Now and Fixed Price venues.

Be sure to clearly think out your last day of shipping and state that on your auction. Add whatever special services you are willing to provide clearly stated. If you are willing to make a trip to the post office on Dec. 24th to overnight a package, then state that in your auctions. Many folks will do this since there are so many panicked buyers out there, and you can charge a heftly little service fee without feeling too guilty. We did this last year more of a courtesy than a service. The gal was ecstatic and the feeling good to get her book to her in time for Christmas was reward enough. It is important to know what your limitations are so you aren't surprised by unreasonable demands through these last hectic weeks of selling.

Happy Holidays!
