Shipping and combined shipping

Learn how Minute Wars shipping works — tracked parcels, economy envelopes, and when same-seller wins can combine shipping.

Shipping on each win

Each listing includes shipping information from the seller and platform defaults. Final shipping and tax appear in your payment total.

Most orders ship with carrier tracking. Some eligible low-value listings may use economy envelope shipping without tracking — checkout discloses which type applies before you pay.

Economy envelopes

When economy shipping is enabled for an eligible listing, you pay the disclosed flat economy rate (platform default has been $1.50) instead of a standard parcel rate. Sellers mail a stamped envelope and upload proof; there is no tracking number on this path.

Eligibility can depend on category, seller settings, and a hammer-price value cap (platform default has been $20). Claim and auto-release timing after ship follow platform settings disclosed in the product and Terms.

Combined shipping

When you have multiple unpaid wins from the same seller, Minute Wars may offer combined shipping at checkout. Eligible items generally share one charge equal to the highest shipping amount among those items — not the sum of each item’s shipping.

Economy envelope orders cannot join combined shipping. Exact eligibility and amounts for your wins are shown in checkout.
