Honestly guys are just so afraid of getting forgotten or ripped off that they just want to be reassured...I would just have a nice canned e-mail explaining your shipping times (again)..."Hey thanks for buying, I'm a working guy and collector with a full time job and not a big dealer who does this for a living so please allow me some time for shipping." Doesn't bother me if it takes a week or two to get to me when I know the guy is just a collector / dabbling in dealer like me. Heck I'd give you a month!   |
Its easy to do it all from home though....
If you're going to be selling a lot get yourself a thermal printer.
Stick the label to the bubble mailer and throw it in the mailbox. Takes like 2 minutes.
Beats going to the post office and waiting in lines.
I have a full time job, and a toddler, and help my wife with her business. I get everything shipped out the next day.
