|---|---|
| Base Shipping Fee (Per Parcel) | Each partial shipment incurs the carrier’s base fee (e.g., first 0.5kg). Two parcels mean two base fees. |
| Weight-Based Charges | Charges are calculated on the actual weightvolumetric weight |
| Potential Repacking Fee | If items from a single seller must be separated, a small repacking/service fee may apply. |
