Hey everyone!

Been awhile since I've last posted. I've been working on an idea on my head for the past couple of weeks, I've finally decided to put pen to paper. My issue has been finding concise information on return shipping fees. The idea will have a near 90% return rate. Think old school Netflix with the ability to buy DVDs. Similar idea to old-school Netflix in a different business area. With the rates I was looking at it looks like the cost of free shipping would kill the margins if they ordered more than 2 products a month. Customers ordering more than two products a month would be highly likely. I'm sure a few of you have experience with this. Can anyone recommend companies like endicia that would help me get rates as low as possible? My average packing weight for reference would be about 10 ounces or little over half an lb.

Any thoughts ideas, I could charge more for services. Although I think about 10% the cost or $15 dollars is a good price to try out the products because there are so many options. Also bracketed tiers if you want to try more than one at a time.

Thanks
Mack
