Courier cost is more

Deal all,

How you all are sending courier for Rs 37 or 46...

 

I am new to ebay selling...

 

My first product (very small toy) cost Rs 75 + 35 (shipping)... (250 GRAMS) (5 inch * 5 inch * 5inch)

 

But after selling my product i checked with fedex for courier from Chennai to West Bengal. They asked 215 Rs. 

Checked with Blue Dart, they asked around 150 Rs.

Finally sent through Proffesional Courier for 80 Rs. 

 

My First sale lose 50 Rs. but in eBay i found all of them putting the courier cost as flat 45 Rs. I am really feeling bad on this.

 

What i am doing wrong...

 

Kindly advice...

 

Thanks,

Kailash

Hi!

You have to start selling some items and then apply for powership (Ebay's logistic partners like FedEx, Aramex and Blue Dart will pick up at your door step). The charge for 250 grams is Rs.42.70 anywhere in India. It is eBay's decision to accept your application.

For now, you can exclude some states in north -east, andaman, kashmir, etc. where the shipping charges from Chennai are high.

You may also mention in your litings that you will only ship through a particular courier.

All the best.
