Creating a Listing: Selecting A Shipping Method

Overview

Chairish provides a variety of shipping options, to meet your needs and capabilities.  Chairish Managed and Seller Managed categories each contain a variety of options. 

 

Step 3 "The Logistics" section of the listing flow is where you begin the selection process.

The first step is to select either  "Have Chairish arrange shipping" or "Arrange my own shipping."
