@shopcasachic: Shipping rates are going up again — and yes, it matters. The United States Postal Service is raising rates on January 18th, and eBay has already confirmed that eBay labels will cost sellers more. Ground Advantage and Priority Mail increases mean we have to be smarter — not louder. Here’s the truth: shipping has gone up every single year I’ve been reselling. And yet, my business continues to grow. Buyers are still buying. December was my best month ever in 25 years. What changes is how you source, what you buy, and whether your items can support higher shipping costs. Better buying matters more than ever. 👉 I teach this in depth inside Sourcing School — sourcing with intention, pricing with margins in mind, and building a business that still grows even when costs rise. If you’re ready to pivot instead of panic, that’s where my best strategies live.
