This logistics channel is no longer available? Where should Amazon sellers go...

The United States begins the process of withdrawing from the Universal Postal Union

It's been a while

Regardless of whether the sellers pay attention or not,

I have gradually felt the changes in logistics and freight forwarding.

The postal channel is no longer available.

Another wave of sanctions after the sweater war

This time, we are targeting cross-border e-commerce...

The United States is apparently due to the deadline

No satisfactory response was received from the Universal Postal Union.

So now the exit process has officially started

Freight forwarding and postal channels are now suspending shipments

It should only be aimed at the withdrawal of the United States

Reformulate fee schedules and policies

Now China Post Express has announced new charging standards

Alice also organized it into a table, sellers who need it can save it

The new standard will undoubtedly increase the cost

Transferred to our sellers

Without the UPU's subsidies to developing countries

The postal channel has lost its original price advantage.

Amazon sellers using FBA do not need to worry for the time being

But what Alice said in the previous article

Sellers who ship small items with low unit price and low weight

The blow will be much greater.

Now these sellers who are affected

The situation of important logistics channels increasing in price or even becoming unavailable

What is their next option?

The first thing Alice wants to tell you is

On Amazon now, both the platform and buyers

They will prefer FBA products

The platform will provide more traffic and support

Buyers are more willing to choose products that offer FBA

Of course, the sellers who are affected

Most of them did not choose FBA due to cost considerations.

Here Alice is going to tell you

Specially designed for low-price, small-volume products

FBA Small and Light Program

As the name suggests, this is a small

Customized service for low-priced products

You can enjoy the same benefits as general FBA products

It also offers a lot of discounts on costs

▲ Rates for the Light and Small Plan

▲ Comparison of the cost of the Light Small Plan and the normal FBA

By comparing the data provided by Amazon above

We can all see the difference

The cost of the small and light plan is much cheaper than the normal FBA

And when customers buy multiple items at a time

The greater the advantage

Are you already itching to pay after seeing the cost?

Don’t worry, the Light and Small Project also has strict requirements for products.

Products that meet the following conditions can participate in the Light Small Program

1. The price should not exceed US$15

2. The volume does not exceed 16 x 9 x 4 inches

(About 40*22*10CM)

3. Weight no more than 15 ounces (about 425g)

Yes, this is almost for self-delivery by postal parcel

This part is prepared for sellers

In the past, although the cost has been reduced a lot

But it still can't compare with the postal service's invincible cost performance

Postal costs are rising

The advantages of the light and small plan are highlighted

When choosing the small and light plan FBA, you should also pay attention to the following points

1. The delivery time for the light and small plan is 4-5 days, which is slightly longer than the general FBA delivery time.

2. Products participating in the small and light plan cannot be distributed through multiple channels.

3. For returns that occur, the Light and Small Plan will refund but not return the goods.

All losses shall be borne by the seller.

Although there are other self-delivery solutions such as small package channels

But Alice will not elaborate on these here.

Because the current Amazon policy is gradually tightening

The road ahead is to fine-tune operations

If we still insist on placing orders at this time

Operations against the platform's wind direction will not go far in the end

Self-delivery has now been neglected by the platform

The days ahead will only get worse.
