class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0f9a70 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b0f9a70\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Payment: easy and convenient<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b21c27 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b21c27\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Next, the shipping cost also consists of the convenience of payment. This, among other things, means that if you have sold something on a Western auction or marketplace, you don&#8217;t need to pay commissions, transfer this money into cash in Ukraine, then somehow send it all to the postal operator, losing on commissions and currency conversions.<\/p><p>\u200dFor example, Western Bid offers to pay you immediately from the funds received from your sales, so you do not lose on conversion and time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b60648d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b60648d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Calculated package weight<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f6fe6c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f6fe6c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Another factor that needs to be considered is the weight calculation of the goods, because commercial mail operates based on volumetric weight. The volumetric weight is either the volumetric or the physical weight\u2014whichever is greater. And in this case, you need to determine which formula your postal operator applies. If they use the formula D x W x H \/ 5000, then the price is based on that, but if you divide by 4,000, as some operators do, then the price will be completely different. This is the formula for calculating volumetric weight. In the <a href=\"https:\/\/westernbid.com\/prices#section-calculator\">Western Bid calculator<\/a>, for example, if you enter the parameters of your parcel, you will immediately see the calculated weight.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-708720f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"708720f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Packaging of the parcel<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-20b8f06 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"20b8f06\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>And here we move on to another important aspect &#8211; convenience of processing. For example, in Western Bid, if you send a parcel, you receive the label almost immediately. Even if you are not in Kyiv, and you need to send a parcel to our Kyiv center for further forwarding from Kyiv to your recipient, in your personal account you can also pay for the New Post\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/westernbid.com\/articles\/nova-poshta-across-ukraine\">shipping to our center in Kyiv<\/a>, virtually without leaving your home, using the funds available in your account. This way, you will arrive at the New Post branch with a fully prepared parcel, and you won&#8217;t have to stand in line or process it directly at the branch.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5e94e59 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5e94e59\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Losses accounting during international shipping<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4306cc4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4306cc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In addition to convenience and cost calculation, you need to consider the reliability of the postal service, because if you do not take this factor into account, each lost parcel (even if only one or two out of several hundred parcels are lost) is still a loss. Eventually, these losses will occur to you, and therefore the cost of such a loss should be included in the shipping cost of each parcel.<\/p><p>Accordingly, two circumstances should be considered. First, whether the carrier offers insurance and how expensive it is. For example, Western Bid offers <a href=\"https:\/\/westernbid.com\/articles\/insurance\">insurance for 1%<\/a> of the declared value. And second &#8211; how many parcels, on average, the carrier loses. This can be easily determined from reviews on social networks about any carrier. For example, you can read about Western Bid in a public group on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/168546717139414\">Facebook<\/a>. Unlike other carriers, we do not restrict access to customer groups, nor do we make them private for such groups.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b1a00e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b1a00e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Return of goods<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e48f2e1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e48f2e1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Another component of the price is the possibility for your customers to return the goods. Returns happen, and if customers refuse the product, they will demand a certain amount from you for returning the parcel back to you. This is all part of your cost. It is very important to determine how you will accept the goods back and what your expenses will be in this process.<\/p><p>\u200dFor example, Western Bid offers a <a href=\"https:\/\/westernbid.com\/articles\/warehouse-turn\">return center in Miami<\/a>. Accordingly, it will be much cheaper (and for you as well, of course) to send the goods to Miami for resale to another seller or to return it to you in Ukraine.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d19bede elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d19bede\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Time is the most valuable<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bead16e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bead16e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Thus, we have already reached the most important point: the cost of shipping is the cost of your time. And here too, it is very important, when choosing a carrier, to understand that if you call your carrier for hours and wait days for responses to your emails, of course, this will add to the initial cost of shipping.<\/p><p>\u200dAt Western Bid, there is <a href=\"https:\/\/westernbid.com\/contacts\">support<\/a> available by phone during working hours, and the chat on the website and in the personal account also operates daily. Additionally, you can contact us via email, Viber, we have groups on Telegram, Facebook, and you can even write on Twitter. We strive to provide our clients with communication tools so that they do not have to wait long for responses to their letters and requests.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-20f471a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"20f471a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Access to forwarding information<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58c401f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58c401f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>And another point &#8211; it is very important to receive information about delays in a timely manner and to be aware of certain restrictions during shipment. If you find out about this only after you&#8217;ve arranged your parcel, you could lose money. Therefore, we recommend that you inquire in advance about customs procedures, allowed items for shipping, and so on. Accordingly, the choice of carrier also depends on how informative the carrier is in this regard, how fully and promptly you can obtain this information.<\/p>\n<p>\u200dFor example, the Western Bid website has a search feature, available in both the Ukrainian and Russian versions, where you can enter a query about the information you are interested in, such as prohibited goods, product codes, or IOSS, and thus avoid trying to find this information elsewhere online, instead getting it all in one place.<\/p>\n<p>\u200dArticles on the Western Bid site are written in such a way that, after reading one, you can find links to the second and third. A live chat with operators is also available on the site, and if you cannot find any information, the operator will immediately suggest where to find the relevant materials. In other words, all the services you expect from a courier company are also included in the cost of the shipment. You save money, you save your time, so when sending a parcel and relying on inexpensive shipping, you should also consider these factors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60c052f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"60c052f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote>\n  <p>The most affordable international shipping is not the one with the lowest rate on the calculator, but the one where you do not lose money on currency conversion, time, errors in processing, lack of support, lost packages, and expensive returns.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-681a914 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"681a914\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section aria-labelledby=\"cta\">\n  <h2 id=\"cta\">Want to calculate truly cost-effective international shipping?<\/h2>\n  <p>Evaluate not only the initial cost of the parcel, but also the weight, insurance, payment convenience, returns, and support speed.
