Orders & Shipping 🚚
This page covers everything you need to manage your orders and shipping—from keeping track of new sales to generating shipping labels and handling any issues that come up.
Order Management
Check the Orders tab in your dashboard regularly for new sales. You'll also receive order notifications via email!
After you've received an order: Open each order and confirm that the customer’s shipping address, package weight, and other details are correct. Accurate details help avoid shipping delays and unexpected charges.
Generating a Shipping Label
Follow the steps below to create a shipping label. You'll only be charged for the label if you opt into a sitewide shipping promo. 🚀
- Log into the Seller Portal and navigate to Fulfillments:
- Look for orders marked as Unfulfilled.
- Check the box next to the order and click Print Shipping Label at the top of the screen.
- You'll be prompted to enter the required dimensions and weight - both are essential for accurate postage and any discrepancies may be billed to you! Click Next.
- Confirm Addresses:
- Ship-From address: Verify that the address you're shipping from is correct. Click Next.
- Customer address: Double-check the buyer’s shipping info for any missing details (especially apartment numbers).
- Select a Shipping Service: Browse the available shipping rates.
- Select the exact shipping method the customer chose at checkout (e.g., if they selected “Ground Advantage,” choose that option).
Sellers Do Not Pay for Shipping (Unless Weight is Missing!)
- Customers cover the shipping cost based on the product weight entered.
- If no weight is provided, the system cannot calculate shipping, and the customer may check out with free shipping.
- Always enter accurate weight details to avoid this issue.
⚠️ Important: Only generate one shipping label per order! If you accidentally create multiple labels, contact us ASAP on Discord or email sup@throwbackbuys.com so we can process a refund for the extra charges. We're working to streamline this process so that this issue is easier to avoid.
