What courier does Shopbop use for domestic delivery?

Shopbop can currently ship directly to China, which is very convenient for everyone. However, many friends still have some questions about what express delivery Shopbop uses to ship to China and how to track it. Today, the editor will answer them for you. Currently, there are three different ways for Shopbop to ship directly to China, and these three mailing methods also have different transportation methods after arriving in China.

The first one is a free direct shipping method to China for orders over $100, which is expected to take 8-11 working days. The courier used in this method is ECMS, which is the official courier of Amazon. If you choose this method when purchasing, you need to pay the customs duties in advance. If the actual customs duties are less than the pre-collected amount, Shopbop will refund the remaining money to you; if the actual customs duties are more than the pre-collected amount, Shopbop will help you make up this part, and consumers do not need to pay. Click "Track Package" in the order record to query the courier information.

The second method is to use international express delivery, such as UPS or DHL. This method is the fastest, and it usually takes 2-4 working days to deliver. However, if you use international express delivery, you need to purchase goods worth more than 300 US dollars to enjoy free shipping. If you purchase goods worth less than 300 US dollars, you will be charged 20 US dollars. In addition, the price of pre-paid customs duties for international express delivery is also relatively high. It is about 33.5% of the total price of the goods. In general, this method is the fastest, but it also costs the most. Click "Track Package" in the order record to query the express information.

The third type is free and traceable postal express. It is also free for purchases over $100. If the purchase is less than $100, you need to pay $10 for postage. The postal express is shipped to China and then it is the EMS express we usually use. This method is the slowest, but the price is relatively the cheapest. It takes 7-20 working days for postal express to be mailed back to China. However, this method does not require prepayment of customs duties. It is spot-checked by the customs. If the postal express is spot-checked, you will be contacted. Click "Track Package" in the order record to query the express information.

You need to check what specific courier Shopbop uses in China, and which courier company the merchant is cooperating with. In fact, many friends now also purchase foreign products through this platform. In the past, they were basically purchased on behalf of others, which was more expensive and there were also more fakes.
