The sticky got me thinking of the shipping charges and how some of you work them. Did you figure a good sliding scale to use for this? For example, 1 jar = $, 2 jars = $, etc...... same for votives. I've only done drop shipping before so I am fairly "new" to how to figure shipping into the bottom line.

Hi Sandy, I figured my cost of shipping per jar at about 1.40 my cost. so now i figure them into the price of the candles. I will charge 20$ for the candle and say that includes the shipping and tax. People like paying a nice round even number. If they buy 2, i charge 2 for 36$. I do eat a little of the tax and shipping but the tax is deductible anyway. Just my 2 cents!! hth!! smileys/smiley2.gif
