Has anyone seen the shipping cost breakdown that Bonz claims will beat Pirate Ship? I need to see a cost breakdown of the different USPS postage Bonz claims will be cheaper. I have read some different questions and responses by Bonz regarding different scenarios… ie. using a postage stamp vs this $2. charge…. many responses from Bonz it to reach out privately – well… there is a problem there.. Bonz needs to let everyone know these answers.. Break it down so we can see your costs per USPS category … ie… media mail .. 1oz to 4 oz = $4.30, Per Region etc…. We can not make a rational decision on this new shipping “solution” thru Bonz without knowing all of the dollars and cents… Don’t just put out a blanket statement and tell us “You are going to charge us $2. and it will cost less and we will like it”… Show Us!

I don’t see a pane on the shipping settings page where sellers can add a third-party shipping service. Where on the page is it?
I do see the option “I purchase shipping labels from a Bonanza approved API partner shipping label API partner. [URL removed] ___”. Is that what you mean? I entered stamps.com but I can’t believe that would work since they are not one of bonanza’s approved affiliates (just like Pirate Ship isn’t).

I wrote this on the blog post last week. It is the last post before comments were closed and the moderator never replied.
It appears to me that this was not well thought out in advance and was put forth by people who have never sold on line.
Do you have a rate chart? if not, why not 10 days before launch.
I ship magazines via 1st class “stamped mail” for an average cost of $2.75…I list with $3.99 shipping…will your new shipping program affect me? Can it beat the $2.75 present cost?
How much will a 7 oz large “stamped” envelope cost with $7.00 listed shipping to Canada cost me? Can you beat $5.00?
How much will a 3 0z large “stamped” envelope cost with $3.00 listed shipping from SC to CA cost me? Can you beat $1.75?
These are just some of the questions I have that should be fully answered before forcing sellers into the program.

No, and they expect us to email support begging for price matches.
They do not say how, give a format, a template what is required.
Just their slow support email.

Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
