Ebay – How to Pack Coffee Mugs & Sales Update
As requested, here is a video showing exactly how I pack and ship my coffee mugs. You can order the priority boxes I used, along with lots of other sizes, from the post office’s website. They are free!

Is that the …
Is that the cheapest way to ship them or the safest, or both?
Thank you both so …
Thank you both so much! You can choose to ship to certain countries or you can ship worldwide (I ship worldwide). Instead of calculating rates, I put up my US shipping rate and then ask international buyers to request a shipping quote before bidding (or buying). Then I got to the post office website and figure out the postage for that country. A starting price is simply the price I start at if the item is up for auction. The Buy it Now price is a flat price. Hope that helps! TFW, Heather
I love your videos …
I love your videos I use them to learn by. I do have a question. When you ship to other countries How do you do that? If you choose a country does the sale go on all the countries or just the one you click on.? Also you mention You have a starting price and a Buy it now. can you explain. I know you are busy, just learning, You are my hubby and my Farorite Site.
We are in the process of watching all your older videos. Pat and Sherry
Nice profit on that …
Nice profit on that camera!!!! I love vintage cameras – they almost always do well, but of course I can never find them now that I know that, lol! Great tips on the shipping. I should tape my dad’s coffee mug shipping method. Bless his heart, he has a system of creating a cardboard cover wrap for each of them. It’s his own special system!
Awwwww ok…I’ll …
Awwwww ok…I’ll have to check those boxes out. I’ve never heard of a #4 box. Good to know. I’m learning so much from you. Thank you so much for your videos of wisdom and knowledge. These videos will help me a lot when I build my courage up enough to post on ebay. :o)
It’s not a flat …
It’s not a flat rate box, it’s a number 4 box. Sometimes I take a little loss if I ship to the west coast, but then I make it up when I have a buyer who lives closer. TFW! Heather

Thanks, Pam! Only problem is, I’ve been working so hard, I have NO time to play! SAD!! TFW, Heather
You can make a good …
You can make a good profit on the pencils, but it all depends on what model you have. I had to do a little research on mine before I listed them. TFW, Heather
Hope you find some …
Hope you find some good mugs soon. I don’t hoard mugs….maybe that’s why I buy them…because I know I won’t keep them! LOL! TFW, Heather

That’s a good idea. I always keep the inflated bags that I sometimes get when I order stuff online.

I was surprised the camera went for that much. Surprised, but happy! TFW, Heather

I just find a bigger box. It’s a little more difficult for international packages since there are size limitations, but I’ll figure it out. TFW, Heather

It is a #4 box. TFW, Heather

There’s a National Bubble Wrap Day? That’s nuts! I should get a HUGE roll of bubble wrap, but I’m running out of room for stuff between my inventory and my packing material. I charge $7.95 - $9.95 to ship a mug, depending on its size and weight. TFW, Heather
No, I charge around …
No, I charge around $7.95 – $9.95 for each mug (depending on size and weight). TFW, Heather

You’re very welcome …
You’re very welcome! TFW, Heather
Thanks! My …
Thanks! My knowledge on mugs comes strictly from 5 years of buying and selling. I try to buy high quality and popular subject matter. Design and brand are a factor too. And I always like finding extra large ones. They seem to be pretty popular. TFW, Heather
I’m limited with …
I’m limited with how many boxes I have, so this is what works for me. And I don’t have as much patience as you….I hate to pack just one box! LOL! TFW, Heather
Thanks for the tip! …
Thanks for the tip! I never thought about putting anything inside the mug. TFW, Heather
