The price structure we found is as follows:
First 500+Additional 500*[(Total weight-First500g)/500g]= shipping cost of your order.
Of course, the result we get from the formula is the postage in RMB yuan.
You can divide the result by US dollar/RMB rate if you want to convert
the result into US dollars.
2) How to save your postage
We found that due to the starting price of 500g, it means that even for a piece of paper,
you need to pay the starting price of 500g as its postage.
Yes, you are very smart. We have no products which weigh 500g on our website,
and some of them only weigh 100g. So if you only buy a product which weighs 100g,
you have to pay as much postage as that of 500g. Put like that, I feel unreasonable!
Well, how can we change the unreasonable circumstances?
Yes, you are right! You can buy five same products each time!
We can not change the policy of the express companies, but we can evade it properly.
When you buy five same products each of which weighs 100g, the total weight is 500g.
The postage is as much as that of one product, but you get five ones.
You might say that I don’t need so many same products.
Yes, but why don’t you buy five different products each of
which weighs 100g on our website?
In this way, you will also pay only the starting price of 500g.
I believe that you are smart and you will have a right choose!
3) We solemnly state that members of this website can have 50% discount
for their EMS official postage. Be quick and come here to have a nice shopping!
