Here are 3 factors we use to calculate the shipping fee:
Product variants
Destination country: This is the main market you target to sell your products.
Shipping method
The country of destination you select will decide which shipping methods are available. United States and European countries will have 5 corresponding options: ePacket, Prime Shipping, Electronic Shipping New, Global Shipping, and ExpressShipping, while others countries might experience less shipping methods.
After selecting the options for these factors above, you can view the estimated amount in the quotation. Enter ordered quantity to check the final price.
