I was shopping in someone’s booth and went to check out only to find the settings were ‘per item’ instead of combining weight.
So I want to make sure MY booth is set to calculate the weight and charge by overall weight.
Can someone tell me the step-by-step how to do this. I couldn’t figure it out when I tried to do it myself.
P.S. I did notify the seller of the booth to see if she could give me a combined shipping rate.
Thank you everyone.

Perhaps the CSD works for some here but my products are so varied as far as weight and size and Media rate vs other classes by Distance, it does not work for me. I just ask the buyer to either ASK (and wait for a reply) but I must know what they want to combine overall AND THEIR SHIP ZIP CODE and WAIT for me to answer them so not immediate. Or just buy it as it is and IF I can squeeze the shipping nickel till the indian rides the buffalo, I will just refund back the overage from ship costs and fees back to their paypal account and be done with it. Yes a trust me but I do try to give buyers the best value for their shipping dollar I can and at times can actually save them a bunch if I do it manually but it is getting harder and harder to squeeze savings out of USPS rates with every yearly rate increase by them. Again, you can always ask but please dont waste my time with frivolous combinations of items you really want and not take them because you thought shipping would be cheaper than it is. BOX SIZE does matter if items go over 1 cubic foot using USPS. Then the prices to ship just get obscene. Many buyers are so accustomed to FREE SHIPPING but dont realize that the costs are either paid thru a subscription (Prime as an example) or they never shipped anything lately to see how expensive it truly is now. Its not as easy a putting a stamp on a letter.

USPS offers unique limits for the individuals who utilize this select assistance. Moreover, albeit booked transporter pickups are free, there might be extra expenses for extraordinary administrations like on-request pickup. [URL removed]
