We would like to share with you the good news!!!
Q. Does heavier parcels equal higher shipping costs?
A: Well, in normal cases, this is true. However, not all the cases are the same. Take Normal DHL (KD Agent) for example, for parcels weighing 21kg, it only cost US$137.63, which is much lower than US$153.62 charged for 17kg parcels. The reason is that when parcel reach 21kg, we could get better shipping price from post agent.
Following is the detailed shipping information:
Normal DHL (KD Agent) (5-7 Days to Worldwide) | ||
Shipping Weight | Shipping Fee | |
17 Kg | US$153.62 | |
18 Kg | US$161.66 | |
19 Kg | US$169.70 | |
20 Kg | US$177.74 | |
21 Kg | US$137.63 | |
Notice: For shipping fee fluctuate a lot, so we strongly recommend you to use our shipping calculator to estimate your shipping cost. |
Kind Suggestion: When your parcel weighs more than 17kg but less than 21kg, we recommend you to buy more items, in that case, for all extra items you add, you do not have to pay additional shipping fee, and the shipping fee you have to pay may be much lower.
Kind Note: The data for shipping fare could only be used for reference because it fluctuates frequently. So you should take the data calculated in the checkout point or the estimated shipping fee as the actual freight.
