Shipping Insurance for Etsy Orders: Is It Worth It?
Discover when Etsy shipping insurance truly pays off, comparing seller protection, USPS coverage, Shipsurance rates, order value risks, and smart refund peace-of-mind.
I run an Etsy shop where most orders are fulfilled through a print-on-demand service, but I occasionally ship a low-volume item myself.
I mailed an order on time and the customer has already received it, but I forgot to mark it as shipped in Etsy and it now shows as overdue. Is there a way to mark the order as shipped with the correct ship date (or otherwise prevent it from negatively affecting my shop stats)?
