I'm a fairly new seller on sportlots. I don't offer a budget shipping option (PWE) because the cynic in me says that buyers will just say they never got the PWE. The seller in me says that I'm definitely losing smaller sales by not offering the budget shipping option.

I understand that I'd probably only lose the cost of up to 4 cards which for low would only be 72 cents (plus postage), but could theoretically be $20 if they buy four $5 cards.

As I'm typing this and thinking it through, if they buy 4 of my more expensive cards and request budget shipping I could always ship in a bubble mailer with tracking on my own dime since I made a little extra seller higher priced cards.

My question for big sellers like bryanscs is how often do you get hit with a "package not received" when buyers use the budget shipping option?

Thanks, Nick
