Biker Bids - Shipping Calculator
Specifying shipping costs in your listing attracts more buyers. And there's no easier or better way to specify costs than with Biker Bids FREE Shipping Calculator to all ID Verified Members.
You can include the Shipping Calculator in your listings so that buyers can automatically view the correct shipping cost for their specific location! Just describe your package (size, weight) and the shipping services you want to use, and the Shipping Calculator will present the actual shipping cost to each buyer prior to bidding.
Benefits of using Shipping Calculator
You sell more successfully.
Listings that include the Shipping Calculator are more likely to end with a sale, and for a higher price. Buyers are more comfortable bidding on your item when they know exactly how much shipping will cost for their location.
No more guessing.
The shipping cost presented will be based on the specific user's ZIP Code. This eliminates overcharging buyers or having to pay extra costs out of your own pocket.
Bundle your charges into one cost.
You can include a handling charge and/or insurance automatically in the total shipping cost without having to manually add it to the total or display it separately.
Fewer questions.
By having shipping costs provided for every location up front, you get fewer emails to respond to from buyers - ergo - save time.
Get paid faster; ship faster.
The shipping cost is pre-filled in the invoicing and Checkout process, so buyers can conveniently pay the total amount right away, meaning you're able to ship sooner and increase customer satisfaction.
US & International Rates are Available in the Shipping Calculator!
You can select any all or all 3 US Carriers (UPS, USPS, and FEDEX) in the shipping calculator. The calculator will automatically provide costs for each buyer based on their address. Or, you can specify a flat cost for shipping services in the US or International destinations.
Select up to 13 different shipping services to provide a choice to your buyers.
