Where do i go to set my delivery settings etc
Folksy doesn’t have delivery profiles like Etsy does. On each listing when you set it up there will be a set of boxes for you to select how long it will take to dispatch with 3 days being the default. If you want to add more info about how you ship then there is a ‘buying from me’ box under shop appearance.
No need for policies like Etsy has either - because every seller is UK based there are site wide policies concerning returns which apply to us all.
Ah ok no problem I have just found that 3 days box and done it. I will go in the buying for me and offer an upgrade in there then. but how would i manage to charge them and does this platform offer postage labels or do i do that on the royal mail site
This is such a learning curve I had got so used to Etsy lol
Thank you you have been better than any manual lol
I don’t know about postage upgrades on here (fairly recently migrated here from Etsy myself) but I have been buying click and drop labels from RM for a number of years with very few problems so I’d definitely recommend that.
(Also, if you can’t find the answer to a question, or are having problems with anything, Folksy Support is staffed by actual people who will read and understand your actual query and then give you a helpful response in an amazingly short time… That has been the biggest change I’ve had to get used to when moving over here!)
Thank you for getting back to me here I have only just started to move over here today. I am happy to buy from royal mail and I wasn’t sure about support here but if they are in person that’s amazing I will contact them as I want to also import everything over from Etsy too to make it a bit easier
To charge for a postage upgrade make a separate listing called something like ‘postage upgrade’ - here’s an example of how someone else has done it. Postage Upgrade - Folksy
I buy my postage via Royal Mail’s click and drop, you can’t currently buy postage through Folksy.
That’s a great idea thank you for that I will do that and i’m ok with buying through royal mail it’s pretty easy.
