One booth closed the other will be on the 15th after sale or maybe sooner

I’ve been on here 7 years and am shutting down because of this. They have no right to fine us if we have out own shipping already!

Thank you for asking, Roses_Quilts_Gifts. With Bonanza shipping you can still take your packages to the post office yourself, and save money off of the USPS retail rates when you do. If you do not have a printer, here is how. Purchase your USPS reduced rate shipping label here at Bonanza. Select the QR code option, which will provide you with a scan code. Take the scan code on your phone with the package to the post office. At the post office they will scan the code, print and affix the label for you.

Our goal with this program is to provide the lower than retail/commercial rates that medium and large e-commerce sellers receive through shipping service subscriptions to ALL of our sellers, with no monthly subscription fee. So, you will be paying less for your postage now!

If you have further questions about the program, we’d love to answer! Email us at support @bonanza.com

PS. If your label costs less than $2, then that is all that you will be charged for the shipping label. There will be no additional cost or assessment fee for the shipping.

That does not answer my question. Will I be charged anything not joining the Bonanza shipping and sell an item and mail on my own at my post office will I be charged anything by Bonanza? Yes or No.

Hi Leshersquiltkits, If you do not use our lower than USPS retail rate labels to ship your transaction, then there will be a $2 assessment fee to your account.

OK sheeple – if I understand this – no matter how you ship you will pay $2 extra. I find this to be a “do it our way or else” situation. I have placed both my booths on vacation (not that I sell hardly anything here) and see if things change. It’s really a shame – I have been on here since back when it was known as Bonanzle and there were just over 100,000 sellers. There are so many other selling venues to choose from. I think Bonanza is shooting themselves in the foot. JMO

I just started not to long ago. I take my orders to UPS and ship them off. I live in an RV and don’t have a printer.

Give us an option to CHARGE THE BUYER your new $2 per transaction fee.
