    Etsy and free shipping with digital products

    in Business Side of Things

    Posted

    I have an unusual situation on Etsy and wanted to know if anyone else had dealt with it yet. 

     

    I finally decided to get up the nerve to sell my candles this year after 13 years of testing HAHAHA. Anyway, I decided I would test pricing to see if I could sell my candles with the $35 free shipping guarantee. Here is the problem; right now, I sell wick template guides on my Etsy site. They are instant download files so there is no shipping. If I offer the $35 free shipping guarantee and someone buys (1) candle and wick templates, I will lose money :(

     

    I emailed Etsy but they are too busy to respond. I missed the Christmas selling window because I didn't know how to handle shipping. I am not too disappointed in missing the Christmas rush because this will be my first experience with online selling, shipping, etc. and this time of year isn't the best time to get your feet wet but I do want to get it launched at the beginning of January.

     

    Has anyone else had this issue?

    I don't normally like to leave OOB reviews but I got a sample from RE of Sugar Frosted Plum and I LOVE IT! I am waiting to get it in wax and praying it delivers :) I also got the new Cypress and Bayberry FO from Candlescience. It is a beautiful scent and a STRONG thrower :)

    I just made a post on this @kdmorgan I apologize as I didn't see this until right now.  😬  Any CS favorites that you can suggest?  

     Hi Marleigha :)

    My all-time favorite from Candlescience is their Banana Nut Bread. I know it's been around forever but I never get tired of it LOL

    Some of my other favorite oldies but goodies...

    Hansel & Gretel's House

    Carmelized Prailines

    Lemon Pound Cake

    Mistletoe

    Lavender

    Strawberry Shortcake

    Hazelnut Coffee

    Pumpkin Souffle

    Sea Salt and Orchid

    Very Vanilla

    Sandlewood

    These all throw really well and smell great!

     

    Some of the newer ones I have been tried...

    Fallen Leaves - I didn't care for this one. I pick up a cologne smell but that may just be me

    Pumpkin Chai - I really like this one a lot! I haven't got it wicked right yet but it's got a good throw so far despite that

    Cypress & Bayberry - This is an amazing scent! If you like Bayberry you will love it!

    Black Current Absynthe - I can't decide if I like this one or not LOL. It is definitely different and interesting and STRONG!

    Hot Apple Pie - I'm not impressed with this one. I can't smell it real well. It is in wax I decided not to use though because I was having trouble with cold throw so I may give it another shot. Also, I have always had trouble picking up apple scents so I'm probably not the best person to review it LOL

    Cardamom and Star Anise - It's an interesting scent and strong but, if you do not like black licorice, you will not like this one

     

    Some I didn't like...

    Caramel Popcorn - All I smell is the butter, no caramel. If you need a movie popcorn scent, this would probably work. I haven't tested it for hot throw

    Cinnamon Chai - Just do not care for the scent at all. It does have a good hot throw though

    Apple Maple Bourbon - Again this could be because my nose has trouble with Apple scents, but i didn't care for this one either. It has a ton of good reviews though so I suspect it's probably just me :)

    Pomegranate  Cider - Another one I didn't care for. It's too tart for me

     

    I haven't gotten these in wax yet but OOB scents I like...

    Black Sea - It is a cologne type scent but I like it

    Cinnamon Stick - I smell cinnamon sticks other people smell red hots

    Snickerdoodle - Yummy 

    Toasted Pumpkin Spice - This is such an awesome scent OOB. I have high hopes it will hold up in wax
