Notes:
- You can do FBA and FBM on the same account
- FBM is better to start off with
- FBA = BULK
- UPS Free shipping supplies = free shipping labels
- Polymailers are good for items under 1lb 9oz + 2 = 15 (Amazon)
- Boxes: make sure they are unbranded (Walmart)
- Always buy shipping on Amazon
- Right size box is important
Shipping with FBM
- Charge $0 for free and economy orders (remember as FBA fees, so it's the same almost always)
- Charge $30 + $1/lb for next day, 2-day, and expedited orders
- During the big seasonal times of the year raise expedited prices, buyer pays a ton and all that extra is profit
