I want to sell Bath Salts...I have some PayPal Questions!

posted 2nd Nov
Hey girls, I have a few questions for you selling Mamas  

1. When you sell items online (from a website, personally, etc) and have people pay thru pay pal...how in the world do YOU get that money? Does PayPal put it in your bank account? Send you a check?

2. How much would YOU personally pay for a baggy for premium sea salt like this? (this particular one makes the bath water red wine colored & smells like lavender vanilla; it is made from Epsom Salt & Sea Salt)

3. And how much on average, do you have shipping costs as? I have them at about 3 dollars for shipping...is that too much?

ANY AND ALL information is greatly appreciated.

***ETA: We put the votive candle beside the bath salt bag to show size, not included**

You can request a check but they have a minimum amount you're asking for. You can have it sent to your bank and it takes 3-5 days for it to move.

Paypal can put the $ in your bank acct or you can get a paypal debit card and use it to directly withdraw the money or ATM it out.

Check around for the best price on shipping rates. My guess is going to be USPS.

paypal can deposit into your bank account (which takes like 3 days) or you can request a paypal debit card if you are a merchant. I have one so as soon as people pay me I can head straight to the store and spend it if I want.

As far as shipping goes, you can calculate it by weight on usps.com

make sure you always get delivery confirmation too so you can prove you did your part and sent it out if issues ever arise.

I work for a company who sells dead sea salts and salt scrub. Our dead sea salts are 8 oz for 16.00 and 32 oz. for 35.00 and our salt scrub is 20 oz for 22.00 and we also have mineral bath that is 10.00 but ours is from the Jordan River so all natural, plus made here in the USA and have been around for some time. But we ship UPS and FedEx and its 6.95 with tracking.

well it depends if youw ant to beat others i the market offer it at a lower price   i always bitch about how over priced things like that are lol

so its up to you thing about this how much do you spend to make these? do you want to double your money ? can you cut costs on shipping by enveloping things? offer wholesale rates and bulk purchasing deals? while still making a decet percentage ?

That's true. My husband and I were trying to factor out the price last night, but its hard to do that with the bath salt coloring & scent because you can use it for like 70+ bags of bath salt, lol. We were thinking about doing a bulk deal too, and say for example if it were $3.95 for one, we'd have $6.50 for two and $10.00 for three. And I do want to offer quality bath salts at a modest price, you know?

Thanks for your help!
