Getting Starting on your Shop

 

Before your shop can go live on PriceCheck's Market Place you must first chose your own Marketplace business rules:

 

  1. Shipping Fee Rules
  2. Return Fee Rules
  3. Return Policy
  4. Order Processing Time
  5. Order Collection Info
  6. Public Shop Info
  7. Banking Details 

 

These seven rules are vital in determining what kind of business you want to run and the relationship you wish to have with your customers.  

 

1. Shipping Fee Rules:

You decide how much you and your customers will be charged for shipping,

there are two options for you to chose from:

  1. split the cost between you and your customers
  2. cover the cost entirely to offer your customers free shipping

Note: This rule will only apply to the following three return reasons:

  • the item is the wrong size/color
  • the item is not as pictured/described

There are three return shipping options available to you (see the table below):

  1. You can either split the cost between you and your customers
  2. cover the cost entirely
