Do you use eBay as a method of selling?
Perhaps you have an eBay shop, or perhaps you use the site to clear out all the used items that you no longer require. After all it’s a good way to make some cash as well as some space.
If so, are you left wondering how to despatch the item to the buyer? Perhaps you use Royal Mail. You may even opt for “pick-up only” on eBay because on the surface it seems less hassle.
However, it is possible to use an eBay parcel service to boost your sales.
That’s because you can use a courier re-seller or a parcel-booking agent to get cheap parcel delivery.
It’s a simple but effective concept
You buy a collection from one of the big name brands such as City Link, Yodel, Parcelforce Worldwide and DHL but cheaper. If you’re buying a few collections here and there you won’t qualify for the bulk-buying discounts that re-sellers obtain. So you can see it makes financial sense to give the booking agents a go.
You may find you’ll pay less to despatch your parcels.
In addition, perhaps you won’t need to opt for pick-up only because the courier service costs a little less than you thought.
What’s more, use a courier and you could save yourself some time as well.
That’s because your chosen courier provider will collect your item direct from your door. Simple.
So next time you’re wondering if it’s worth trying to sell that item on eBay, check out the cost of a courier service. You may be surprised at what you discover.
