Option for sellers to double check shipping weight before shipping

Jacqueline

As a seller, I want to ensure the shipping weight is accurate before sending out a book. It would be beneficial to have an option to double check and confirm the weight after a book is purchased, to avoid any discrepancies or issues with shipping.

Shipping labels for bundles

Charlene Rebecca Creech

When preparing the books for shipping, I think there should be a box that opens up that allows you to confirm the actual weight and change it so that it reflects the real cost of shipping. For example, I’ve had several customers bundle multiple books and when they’re put together, I’m paying a shipping label. That’s more expensive than what the weight really is. This could save money for both the customers and for sellers that are offering free shipping. I haven’t been able to figure out how to buy my own label cause I cannot figure out how to find the shipping address for the customer and if I was able to update the weight. Wait in the app before shipping then everybody can be paying the correct price.

Charlene Rebecca Creech I totally agree that a more straightforward way to confirm/update final shipping weight would be great. In the meantime though is you click on the shipping label to print you will be able to see at the top of the label the weight (i.e. 4lb) and if you need it updated you can send a chat message to pb with new weight. Or if you want to ship yourself just copy the shipping address from the pb label. I've shipped several of my orders using my own label.

Agree. This is my top request for a new feature. Sellers need to make sure the weight is correct with packaging materials on a per shipping label basis. It is particular difficult if a buyer has purchased multiple books.
