For those that I know wanting their items for Christmas I bumped them up to Airmail and I paid the extra. Expedited is obscenely expensive But if someone is asking and is willing to pay for it why not?

I don't offer free shipping because of the bulk and the weight of my product.

Curious how others are doing it too!

I do send by express post if the item is going to montreal.. costs are lower for me, since I have Venture One. I did send out a parcel today to BC where I paid for the express post- and I sent out a parcel to the states by express because my customer wanted it by the weekend, (but didn't arrive by the weekend anyway) I wouldn't normally do this out of the goodness of my heart, but for Christmas, why not. It makes good karma. Wink

I provided it only if requested.  It is silly expensive for the low dollar price of my items.  My latest shipment is actually a very large order that I convinced the buyer to take in multiple shipments from me.  The first mini-batch had to arrive by the new year, so I did expedited (guaranteed 4 days).  I got a quote and got it approved by the buyer first.

It takes a lot longer for the quote and approval process than just blanket offering it, but there is no way I could blanket offer it and just absorb any price difference from what I list.  My margins are just too slim!
