    Default Selling panties on Adultwork, USA to UK shipping?

    I had sold some panties within the USA and shipping was so easy, just take it to the automated package place and weigh, stick on sufficient stamps and boom I'm done. International shipping to overseas from here was another story. I hated having to stand in line at the post office and filling out those damn customs forms.

    Recently I found an article that stated you do NOT have to fill out the customs forms for a small envelope/package that is less than 16 ounces in a flat rate envelope. Is this true?

    Also was wondering what is a good price to sell panties to a loyal viewer? (posting this in a couple of forums to get some varied opinions, thanks for your input ladies)

    Also thought of another question - when you put in the postage amount, are they gonna take out their percentage from the postage payment too?

    If so I guess you'd have to charge more than postage costs to make up for the 35% that AW will take from your credits?

    AW take % from any credits that go through their systems, including the P/P I believe.

    I have also heard that if posted as a standard envelope its alot cheaper, alot of members would seal them in those air tight bags to get the size down and of course keep the quality high.

    I haven't done any panty selling yet, but if I did I think I'd be afraid to ship outside of the U.S. for fear of shipping costs and too much hassle. I could see myself shipping to someone in the U.S. though, if I could zip-lock the panty and use one of those manila bubble envelopes found at CVS (or even Dollar Tree) and 2 - 3 stamps.

    Thanks! I guess I'll have to charge a bit more to cover the credits they will take out of the postage.

    Unfortunately anything other than those priority mail international flat rate envelpes requires a customs form if mailed from the USA, even if it's under 16 ounces, from what I can find out. Due to the new HomelandSecurity stuff you have to physically hand the package or envelope to them and answer questions any time there is a customs form attached. I'm not standing wasting my time in a long line just to make a few bucks, and answering a lot of questions. Last time I mailed panties overseas they acted like I was a terrorist, couldn't believe the grilling I got.

    I wish there was another way because it will cost me 15 bucks per item doing it that way, but not willing to do it unless I can just stick on stamps and put it in the box myself. I guess if they really want my stuff they'll have to pay the extra postage.

    This.


    And this is how I'm gonna do things anytime I'm mailing items out to a cam customer (such as a raffle prize that needs to be mailed)...packaged safely inside of a manila bubble envelope (get em from CVS or Dollar Tree). Yeah, baby!

    This is my first time ever selling panties and I don't have a PO return box. Has anyone done the bubble mailer, 3 stamps thing with out a return address and just dropped them in a mail box?

    I do this for USA shipping (from a USA address to a USA address).
