Why is eBay insisting that I cant charge postage on some maps Im selling? -

Ebay made postage free on certain items, DVDs/CDs and certain books all had there postage costs capped to a fixed rate or to be free. Similar to what Amazon does with there postage where they state that a CD cost ��x to send. Most people now add the cost of postage to the item price, instead of starting at 99p you start at ��2.50, 99p for the item ��1.50 for postage etc. They did it to stop people selling at really low prices but overcharging on postage. You see 1p listings but postage is ��14.99 for a book that would only cost ��2.00 to post, ebay lost money this way. They didn t include postage costs in the final valuation fees, so people selling at 1p weren t paying anything for there listings. We all know ebay hate losing money.

I don;t know where you are from but they have capped the postage limit on items because of excessive charges. People were charging $20 USD for shipping a CD etc.... it was getting out of hand. E-mail the customer service and see what they say, maybe you will have to list the price to include the postage or put the postage in a handling fee.

Don t understand the question, of course you can charge for postage!They do however discourage people pricing an item low but quoting high postage costs!

What all do i need to start a retail business? -

I don t really have any business experience. I already have a location picked out. I have my ein number. I m gonna apply for my business licensce tomorrow if there open. I already ordered cash register software for a pc which also works with quick books and makes it easier to file taxes. I already have all the hardware like credit card reader, receit printer, cash drawaer. I already know what i m gonna sell. I have merchandise. It s just gonna be me and my mom running the store for now. What all or what else do i need to open a store?

Don t listen to this lot you just need buying customers! Keep your prices LOW and work on turnover.No point in sitting on the stuff.take care!

while all the physical items people mentioned are important, the most important thing you could possibly come up with is a marketing plan. this will give you some guidance, and save you a lot of grief down the road. while some of these things may seem obvious, i HIGHLY recommend you write it all out since it will allow you to evaluate your marketing situation as a while. 3 in 4 retail ventures fail, so make sure you are prepared!http://www.canadabusiness.ca/eng/guide/2533/

1) you need a Certified Public Accountant (CPA)2) if you have a made up name for the business, you need to file a DBA (Doing Business As....) - your CPA can tell you how to do this3) you need a GREAT marketing plan4) you need at least 5 years of business expenses ,in cash, in the bankBest wishes and good luck.

You are going to need shelves, chairs, desks, things of that sort. Possibly an alarm system, a sign, a logo, and business cards. That is just a quick list, there are surely more things. The type of business makes a difference in the accouterments you need.

Will Obama listen to small business owners? -

I know they are very good at managing money, and handling operations and employee relations, because they do it currently in what is one of the worst business climates in the last 25 years.I think their advice would help President Obama greatly. It is sad that he won t involve them in policy decisions regarding healthcare and labor.

He will this time, or people will vote him out in 2012. He walks on the tight rope right now. The jobs number does not improve pretty soon, he knows he is in trouble.

Write to him. if enough poeople have the same opinion, he ll mostly likely listen, but no President is going to listen to only one person they don t know.

No, he supports the unions, they would not be too thilled if he gave the average American a second thought.
