I am new to Bonanza and I have been putting shipping into the description because there is no shipping profiles for Canadian shipping. Am I missing something?
I then read on Bonanza that putting shipping in listing descriptions will impede my sales, because buyers don’t want to read and waste time. So this leaves me with flat rate. But I sell jewelry and a jewelry set cost more to ship then a pair of earrings. There is weight to consider and size of package. So how do I do this when ever item I sell is different in size and weight.
The there is the point of combined shipping. How is that possible using Flat Rate. Say a buyer wants 5 items. There is also no place to put a rate for how much more it will cost to for each extra item.
Also I notice that you have North and South America as a choice for flat rate instead of North America or South America. Or U.S. or Canada instead of the North America.
You do realize that it costs more to send a package to Brazil then it does to the U.S.A. from Canada. Why are they combined?
On Etsy you can enter your own countries shipping profiles, like Small Packet Air International or Expedited and you can set it up to appear in every listing. You can also set up profiles for shipping a Jewelry Set costs as opposed to Earrings costs or Bracelet cost. Since they are all different sizes.
Here there is nothing to work with.
Really need some help here guys. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for reaching out @Jewels_mybooth and sorry for the trouble. Currently, our system does not have a friendly way to denote shipping from a Canadian’s perspective. Our system will read your location as Canada. So when you set up shipping, you just denote that you ship to Canada and that should do it (combined with the way you ship to Canada, free shipping, flat-rate shipping, etc).
Depending on what you would like to do, their are several options [URL removed]
“Set up your Shipping profiles, shipping polices, shipping rules and return policy on your “Shipping & Returns” page."
To get there, point your mouse over the “My Booth” link located in the upper left-hand corner of any page and select “Booth settings” from the drop down. Select the “Shipping & Returns” tab, 5th tab on the right. Here, you can create shipping profiles which you can assign to your listings in the batch editor (additional information below).
“To set up shipping on an individual item”
When you are creating a new item or editing an existing item, you will see options on the editing page to add shipping. Whatever rules you apply will apply to that item only.
“To set up shipping on items in bulk”
You can add or edit shipping to your items in bulk via our Batch Editor. You can access the batch editor by going to your “My Booth > Batch edit items” page. Once you open the batch editor, click on the “Shipping” tab on the left side of the tool box at the top of the page. Select your listings and set your preferred shipping options, then apply your changes. Be sure to clear any domestic and/or international shipping services first, or whatever shipping rules you create will be added in addition to the shipping services you have already saved to your listings.
Here are a couple of links that may [URL removed]
