Hi, not sure yet about bonanza; I see many ebayers moved here, why?
How does shipping work here – can’t seem to find that. Can I choose to only, ship to USA?
Is there a connected way to print shipping labels, & is there any shipping discount rate, discount off retail shipping prices?
Does Bonanza insert a “you will receive this product faster than is humanly possible” line, into your listings which you can’t remove?

You will have to ask why they moved…I left in 2009 and have not been back..it is more work but I am pretty much left alone to run my business
Anyway, you can indicate shipping to US only in the listings either individually or in batch edit.
You can also go to
Selling Dashboard
Click on Booth Settings
Payments and Purchases and set up your buyer restrictions
dscounts and coupons for combined shipping options and other discounts set up
As for shipping, that is a recent addition to bonz and I do not use it, I make shipping labels straight from PayPal for purchases. I have done that since 2009, and I really don’t see the need to change now…however, information on bonanza shipping service is here. You can choose to use it or some other option if you prefer
Here is the information on how that works

as to the humanly possible line…I don’t think so, at least not in anything I ever purchased here
Spend some time exploring batch edit (update items as a group) and all of the Booth Settings ..there are links there that can help you the information you seek

Yes, there is, but you have to prefund a shipping account AND you have to pay a fee to use it. Not a good deal, AT ALL. Although the rates are the commercial discounted rates, the fee eats up your savings. Better to use PayPal or some other third party shipping service.

Also know the SIZE of the package if you use calculated shipping here. They dont request the actual dimensions like the dark side auction site, only normal or large.
With the introduction of dimensional pricing by the USPS, anything over a cubic foot in size is not considered a normal package and it cost more because it is bigger. If you classify it as normal here, you may end up charging way less and then find out it is lots more to ship than the buyer paid for it. it is also unfortunate that Bonz don’t offer calculated shipping for Parcel Select, only Priority.
