Shipping Options
On the listing page, scroll down to the Shipping section and pick from the following options:
Domestic Shipping
You can select a fixed cost, or we can estimate the cost for you based on package weight and dimensions. You can also choose to pay the shipping cost yourself or pass this along to the buyer.
Allow Local Pickup
Buyers pick up the item from your home or another site of your choosing.
Both
Buyers can either pick up the item or have the item shipped to them.
If you select the option to ship your item, then you will pick from the following options:
Calculated Rate
If you select the “Calculated Rate” then the shipping cost will be determined by the buyer's location at the time of purchase. Once the item sells, the buyer will automatically be charged the shipping cost based on their location. This option uses Bicycle Blue Book’s UPS shipping account, so the shipping cost will be passed directly from the buyer to Bicycle Blue Book. The seller will not be required to pay for shipping with this option.
Flat Rate
If you select “Flat Rate” then you will enter the amount you would like to charge for shipping. Once the item sells, the buyer will be charged the “Flat Rate” cost that you have selected. The seller will receive the “Flat-rate” shipping fee from the buyer. The seller will be responsible for paying the shipping and creating a shipping label.
Allow Local Pickup
If you select “Allow local pickup” then your item will be available to buyers in your area for pick up only. If you would like to give buyers the option for both shipping and local pickup, then you can select both options.
