Pro-Tips for Efficiency
Consolidate Wisely
Once all items are in your warehouse, use the warehouse consolidation feature. Remove excessive packaging to dramatically reduce volumetric weight and save on international shipping.
Insurance & Photos
For high-value hauls, always purchase parcel insurance. Consider paying a small fee for detailed photos of your items before they are shipped out from the warehouse to check for damages.
Spreadsheet is Dynamic
The community spreadsheet is updated frequently. Check it periodically, even during your planning phase, as seller statuses can change.
