Diaper Swappers

Thanks! Answered!!

I'm pretty new to selling here so please excuse if this is a frequently asked question

I offered a dipe for sale and the mama requested a shipping quote. I went to PP and entered the numbers (packaged in a poly mailer and weighed) and the shipping was more than I was asking for the dipe! Is this normal? Are there cheaper, easier, better ways of shipping? If it helps your answer, shipping would be from CA to FL so across country. Thanks!

If the diaper is under 13oz you can ship it First Class. Otherwise the cheapest would be Flat Rate options through Priority.

Yeah, diapers are usually under 13oz and cost me about $2.50 to go from TN to CA

Hmm I think I need to go back and see what box I checked.
