      Yea, people don’t wanna see the + shipping. Higher price with free shipping sells more.

      If you’re selling an instrument on reverb, absolutely do this. People balk at shipping price concerns. Say you cover it, raise your ask.

        I buy on reverb quite a bit and with expensive music grear I’m suspicious of free shipping. I’d much rather pay for shipping to ensure they actually package and ship it with care.

        With free shipping, if it’s packed like shit I can’t really complain, if I spend $30, on shipping and it’s packed like shit, I’m gonna question it

          Yeah, as a buyer I’d agree.

          But your average buyer is dumb.
