Well if this sort of thing is uncommon and it's too much work for the small savings, then I won't proceed.
By going through trouble, what do you mean? Should I not be so open to trusting r/MFA? I thought a sub like this would have a lot of interactions this way, but I guess I'm wrong.
The cost of returning the smalls and buying mediums is $14 ($7 shipping both ways). The cost of shipping your shirts to someone else is, by your estimate, $10.
So, in the end, you'd be saving $4. Of course, there's the distinct possibility that the mediums won't work out, in which case you'll have sell the mediums at a loss since you won't be able to return then to the online store.
I think your best strategy is to hold the smalls for now and buy the mediums. Then, if the mediums don't work out either, you can send everything back using the same $7 shipping label. That minimizes your financial risk, I think.
Anyway, there is a weekly buy/sell/trade thread in r/frugalmalefashion for stuff like this if you want to continue with this strategy.
You're going through a lot of trouble to save very little money.
