Free Shipping!

Everyone loves a bargain and when it comes to shopping online, free shipping is a big selling point, even on ebay.

This weekend I decided to try offering several items with shipping included and, by golly, I've had some success already. Okay, I'll admit that I set the prices of the items to help cover my cost to mail them, but the total was still quite fair and a good buy for the customer. Would they have purchased the items anyway? Maybe, it's hard to know for sure, but I can't help but think that with quick turnover on a couple of items I've offered for sale before the free shipping probably had something to do with helping to close the sale.

Give it a try. Offer your customer a bargain with shipping included and see what happens. I'd love to hear how it works for you.
