Shipping prices are changing

Hi blrnz.ppd,

Each year, shipping and delivery carriers review their pricing and make rate adjustments to account for cost fluctuations, inflation, and demand. Since carrier rates are changing, shipping fees for Mercari prepaid labels are also changing for certain weights starting January 18, 2024.

Good news! This year, Mercari rate changes include some price decreases for certain shipping weights – like $6.99 for 1 lb (down from $7.40) and $3.99 for 0.25 lb (down from $4.30)! View all updated rates here.

Here's what you need to know:
New shipping rates for Mercari prepaid labels are effective January 18, 2024. The new rates will apply to new listings and they will apply if you update shipping on existing listings – for both buyer and seller-paid labels. You don't need to take any action to update shipping on any existing listings.
Starting January 18, 2024, existing listings posted before January 18, 2024 with buyer-paid shipping will automatically update with new shipping prices. Note: It may take up to two weeks for changes to apply to existing listings with buyer-paid shipping.
All Mercari prepaid labels cover nationwide shipping and peak surcharges throughout the year and come with the added value of up to $200 in shipping protection and free returns.

We know that affordable shipping is important to our community, and our team is working hard to continue providing competitive and convenient shipping options. Mercari prepaid labels offer single-price shipments to any of the 50 states and an average of 39% savings for items between 0.25 lb–50 lbs compared to the retail prices of our carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx).* Learn more about some of our latest economical shipping options including Media Mail and First-Class Envelope.

On behalf of all of us, thanks for choosing Mercari as your marketplace

Team Mercari
