Cross border logistics is a key link in eBay's foreign trade, and choosing the appropriate logistics method is a subject of knowledge. There are various ways of cross-border shipping, and the key lies in how to choose a convenient and suitable shipping method for buyers. The eBay platform has strict requirements for sellers' shipping services, and for sellers, they need to choose the appropriate shipping method based on the following principles.
First principle: The item must be delivered within the expected delivery time of the buyer (usually, the buyer's expected value increases with the price of the item, and if the buyer can purchase the same item locally, the buyer's expected value will also be higher)
Principle 2: Try to use logistics methods that allow buyers to keep track of the shipping status of items at all times
Principle 3: Choose a more cost-effective logistics method while ensuring that the first and second principles are not violated
For new sellers, eBay recommends that you choose "International e-Mail" first. For sellers with an average item size close to but less than 500 grams, it is recommended to choose "EMS". For sellers with an item size exceeding 500 grams, they can choose to register an air parcel or an international dedicated line according to their actual situation.
At present, there are several logistics methods for eBay sellers: China Post small package, Hongkong Post small package, China Post large package, Hongkong Post large package. Hong Kong EMS, China EMS.
