Due to the relatively large logistics distance, cross-border e-commerce sellers have to rely on cross-border e-commerce transportation. However, it is precisely because of this dependence that the shipping price of a single item is too high and the delivery speed is not ideal. This article will focus on the more mainstream logistics methods and conduct a competition among Amazon logistics methods.
From the current Amazon logistics transportation methods, we can know that Amazon sellers around the world like to deliver goods through three methods: Amazon official FBA, self-delivery, and overseas warehouse delivery.
1. Competition among Amazon logistics methods: FBA delivery.
This method is more advantageous. Not only is the logistics speed faster, but customers are more trustworthy, and it also helps improve the seller’s ranking. If a cross-border e-commerce business has negative reviews from buyers due to FBA logistics, sellers can even receive preferential treatment from the platform to directly eliminate bad reviews caused by logistics.
However, the disadvantage of FBA is that too many services lead to relatively high costs, and customs clearance must be carried out by the seller personally, which is very inconvenient. In addition, when buyers use the FBA function to return goods at will, It will cause unnecessary hoarding of goods.
2. Competition among Amazon logistics methods: Sellers ship goods by themselves.
Compared with Amazon FBA official delivery, the price of self-delivery is much better, the storage cost is also much better, and the operation is very flexible. But the disadvantage is that LISTING exposure and ranking are much less than FBA, and if the logistics service efficiency cannot keep up, it will cause a lot of negative reviews. In addition, there is no Prime logo, so few Prime members choose to ship by themselves.
3. Amazon logistics competition: overseas warehouses.
It perfectly makes up for the time problem of cross-border transportation, speeds up the efficiency of logistics, and reduces logistics costs. However, the current management level of overseas warehouses needs to be improved.
In short, the above is the complete introduction to the “Amazon Logistics Competition”. When cross-border e-commerce sellers want to develop the market through efficient logistics, they can ship through FBA channels; if If you want to reduce logistics prices, self-delivery is more suitable; if you want affordable prices and fast transportation, overseas warehouses are also a good choice.
