All righty... I'm feeling pretty stupid right now
This is urgent to some of my existing listings because of the liberty that buyers are taking in placing orders in my shop which is causing me all kinds of grief.
I would so appreciate it if someone here sees something that I am missing in allowing me to set shipping prices, please.
If not, Etsy, this seemingly is a huge and quite unworkable glitch... please fix it???
Thanks to all
Edit your shipping profile
I don't use shipping profiles
Etsy is literally so buggy when I change the shipping profile information the publish changes button is still grayed out?? wtf is this website man. if anybody figured out to fix it pls lmk
Under settings, shipping is where you add or change.
I'm see that but that is by weight only... and I don't use Etsy shipping labels. I have always been able to change this in the past
This is the message I'm getting when I go to Settings and/or to Shipping when trying to edit:] This doesn't help at all!
We’re still working on shipping price preview—stay tuned!
For now you can calculate shipping prices here opens a new tab
@FunByJannieMac Go into the shipping profile area in the listing. Then click on new in the right hand corner. Where it says Etsy calculate it for me, drop down to add your shipping cost.
I have always been able to "edit" my shipping cost as well as any upgrades that are available BY LISTING and not in bulk! Because some of my items offer personalization, buyers are "thinking" that if they expedite shipping that automatically makes me Amazon with a 2-day delivery... LOL! That doesn't work for many of my items.
Clearly you can't do what you once did in the newer version of the listing form. Lots of us do not use Etsy labels.. that doesn't mean the advice you are given is wrong. Go into your shipping settings from your dashboard and set up various ship profiles for your items.. You don't have to use calculated shipping-- you can just put in a cost and do it that way.. but you need ship profiles now.
Lots of us sell a wide variety of items with different weights and have many ship profiles and things work just fine.
