I run an Etsy shop and want a newsletter signup discount. Can I limit an Etsy promo code to first-time buyers or one-time use, and what’s the best workaround?

I made my first Etsy sale and the buyer paid shipping, but the USPS label costs about the same. Should their payment cover it, and how do I price shipping to avoid losing money?

I sell Etsy wall art posters and got my first order, but POD test orders arrived late. Should I use a local print shop or a more reliable POD to ship on time?
