[Derrical Ogletree]

Hello, everyone! I sell designer bags, and as of right now, I only have Coach bags. I can only sell them locally, because I am not quite familair with how calucate shipping. If I can get some help on this issue I would be able to ship these bags anywhere! Look forward to you responses!

Hi,

I use to have an online store selling handbags as well. I used a standard shipping rate based on the amount of items they purchased eg. one bag shipping 6.50 and almost 1.50 for every additional item. The best thing to do is contact UPS or whatever source you will use to send your packages better yet go to their store. I made the same mistake when I first started and ending up paying for shipping and dipping into my profits. Do you have an online shopping cart. I will have to go through my old emails and see if I can find what service I used.
