What does your band charge for shipping on T-Shirts?[views:1600][posts:16]________________________________ [Jun 19,2007 8:49am - xmikex ""] Domestic and International? I'm just curious. I'm about to start taking orders for t-shirts, and most of the experience of buying and selling band shirts online comes from e-bay..... which as you know is famous for price gouging when it comes to shipping. And I'd rather not scam on people too bad. |

I have them up as "$10 + shipping" and most people just send me 13 or 14 which is usually plenty. Continental US Priority Mail in a Tyvek envelope is around 3.30 or something. |

If you're selling shirts for 10 dollars that you paid $4 a piece for... it's not like you need to turn a huge profit on shirts. people rarely order them anywho, most of them will sell at shows. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 19,2007 2:19pm - xmikex ""] Yeah I wouldn't even bother with it either, but like I said we get a lot of interest from people in Asia, Europe, Puerto Rico, etc. In fact we get way more interest from people outside the US. So I'd just like to be able to get our stuff out there to the kids that have been waiting for it. |

So I'd just like to be able to get our stuff out there to the kids that have been waiting for it. I sent a Joystick to someone in Germany by UPS air and it was 23 dollars. So a shirt would probably be something like 15. I would imagine that Asia would be around 20 or so. |

| __________________________________ [Jun 19,2007 2:28pm - DeRtOxIa ""] Oh yeah and Puerto Rico is like a colony of the US or something isn't it? I would think that you could mail something there through USPS and it would be the same as mailing something to florida or whatever. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 19,2007 2:29pm - Niccolai ""] it's a US protected state, but shipping rates aren't the same. Shipping to hawaii and alaska are more expensive then shipping to the lower 48. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 19,2007 2:48pm - DeRtOxIa ""] oh yeah i know that it's more but i was thinking duties and taxes and shit. |
