If you are offering a tangible product, then how much money should you charge for shipping and handling fees? Is this automatically calculated on the site? I'm just worried about charging too little for the item.

Depending on what the parcel is, the posting cost can change, as it is Art & Craft items, I would imagine it would be quite light, so not that much. Location / Distance will also most likely be a factor in the posting costs too. How much should you charge for Shipping on Listing Dock?

I agree that it is hard to determine a shipping cost. I worry about charging too much for my clients but then again I do not want the shipping cost to eat into my profit either.

Take your item to the local postal service and have them weigh it and tell you the shipping charge for regular postal and express.

You could also choose UPS or FedEx if rush shipping is required. They have a different rate schedule than the USPS. Also, this varies by country or if you are shipping to another country.

I am never good with shipping so I would say that Beverly's idea is right on.

Don't guess about this situation. Go to the Fed ex or the post office and ask them directly how much they will charge you, otherwise you will end up paying for shipping costs out of pocket.
