Attract more Buyers – Include Shipping Costs in your eBay Listings!
Take advantage of the opportunity to include shipping costs for each Canada Post shipping service you offer when you list an item on eBay. Listings with shipping costs will attract more buyers, as they are more comfortable bidding when they know exactly how much shipping will cost upfront.
