best shipping method for lightweight, small garments?
For those of you who are experienced resellers, wondering what’s the lowest cost method to ship small individual garments? (Dresses in this case, <1lb). One of them is vacuum sealed, others in plastic packaging.
Context;
Amazon delivered 4 women’s dresses to me (my name & shipping address on box). They’re all like $30-$40 no-name Amazon brands. Is it insane to think I could get $15 for each? Is it even worth it to resell at this price?

If it's under a pound USPS ground advantage in a poly bag, or a cardboard flat rate envelope (free from USPS)
Probably will be tough to resell, keywords in description will be important
U can do local fb sell
I dont think it worth hassle listing and ship it
^^^ agree for local shipping is too annoying for items like this. Unless you make the buyer cover shipping but the price point is low so doubt they would pay

Bubble mailers (I just reuse ones that my roommates and friends get from their online shopping) and usps ground advantage in my experience. Agreed these aren’t worth the time though.
You could maybe list them as a lot
USPS Flat Rate Priority Legal Envelopes
you can order them for free from the post office and they will ship to your house
run around $8-9 to ship
i wouldn't bother for the most part with these though ngl, be hard to make it worth your time
Ty for suggestions y’all, gonna try to get them out as a group on FB marketplace or somewhere local
