| I just reread your original post (I skim too much), and I also have most of my
sets entered with the manual billing option as well, unfortunately Bricklink
is just not set up for zone/weight based shipping so this is the safest way to
not under or overcharge for shipping.

| I use Pirateship, creating an account is free and no monthly costs, you can get
estimates using zip codes (I use major cities furthest from me), to give you
an idea of what the shipping costs and best carrier will be, you will also get
commercial prices, which are cheaper than retail.

| Hello,
Total novice here.
I’m a new seller and I have lots of new and complete used sets available for
sale.
Some of them are very heavy like the UCS Razor Crest.
I’ve got USPS Ground Advantage as my first shipping option. At the Post Office
they told me that is all I can use (other than priority)
Then I have UPS Ground as my second shipping option.
I set it up that way because I think UPS Ground is more affordable than USPS
Ground Advantage once you reach a certain weight so UPS is better for those heavier
sets.
Assuming I’m correct (and there’s certainly the chance I’m not), will Bricklink
choose the shipping option that is the least expensive per the weight of the
set?
What is the best way to get accurate shipping costs in advance of a sale?
Thanks.

To be honest with sets especially big and high value ones your probably better
off having a manual invoice option so you can quote accordingly and/or give your
customer various options. This is the main reason I choose to sell my sets here
rather than ebay

| I don't know if Bricklink actually picks a shipping method for you. I've
been selling new and used sets for a while, and I would advise that you don't
do instant check out. Have the buyer place the order, then figure out shipping
cost, because it will depend on where it's being sent. Then you can send
the invoice with your shipping cost. You can put a note in your terms saying
you'll figure out the best shipping method between a/b/c. It's a bit
longer of a process but I think it's worth it. Also, for used sets, I've
found a lot of folks don't care about the box, which makes shipping cheaper
and easier. If you put a note on your listings saying there's an option to
exclude the box (for used sets only, of course), you'd be surprised by how
many ppl don't really care about the box.
I have found that pirate ship is a pretty good way of figuring out the best method,
providing you have a scale and know the size of the package.

This one?

Oh gosh!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
zipline handle... please Catalog people, add "pulley" or something simple
to find in the description!

Is this 1001bricks? They don’t forget about simple items like that
|
Right?? Youd think with over 50k of FB's theyed know all parts.
|
That's the point, it's just I couldn't locate its reference using
pulley, holder and few other words... I looked at Utensils, but of course, being
the last one ("z"ipline) I missed it. I tried Google pic, but the small
picture couldn't find it. I tried searching on Google like "LEGO pulley",
no way. And of course I didn't have this part on hand, just a demand for
this picture of a build to create on Studio Anyway...
Sure it'd help to add to its name something more generic than zipline would
help to locate it.
|
I changed the name so that it states exactly what it is. Since it has nothing
to do with pulleys, I don't feel that the word "pulley" should be
added.
Cheers,
Randy

Love it - and for sure it has a wheel and a handle, thank you!

This might be serving as a placeholder. I got my minifig from sealed 2849. He is also in 1068-1, which is the same set released 2 years later and then he is in 3 board games from 2001-2. Used copies I can see of the 2001 game still show italics. Do we actually need to split him or can we hand wave this?

Placeholder for now. We don't need to rush anything here.
