For novice sellers, shipping is a common headache. Some may not even know what shipping options are available. As an e-commerce seller on eBay, you need to first understand the shipping methods available on the platform. So, what is eBay’s logistics method? How do sellers on eBay modify their logistics methods?
In fact, there are two shipping options on eBay. One is to ship goods by yourself, which is generally suitable for novice sellers. When a consumer places an order on eBay, the seller needs to package the goods according to the order and select a suitable logistics company to deliver the goods to the consumer. Sellers do not need to worry about unsalable goods, nor do they need to pay high fees. However, due to the long logistics time, it is not suitable for fresh goods.
Another shipping method is more suitable for merchants with large transaction volumes and extremely demanding requirements. Sellers can transport the goods to the inventory in the sales area through bulk logistics in advance, and according to the consumer’s order, the local logistics company will deliver the goods to the consumer.
So, after understanding the shipping methods on the platform, how can eBay sellers modify their logistics methods?
Sellers need to log in to the eBay official website and enter the “My eBay” page, then click “Account”, then click “Business Policies” to enter the “Business Policies” page. Then, you can click “Create Policy”, select “Shipping Method” in the list, and fill in the corresponding logistics information.
Follow the prompts on the page to fill in the logistics information that needs to be modified. If the goods sold by the seller are fragile, a description needs to be provided at the bottom of the page to ensure that the goods are not damaged during transportation.
After confirming that the form is complete, the seller can submit modifications.
The above is what eBay’s logistics method is and how to modify the logistics method. On eBay, the importance of mastering the shipping method is self-evident. By understanding the shipping methods on the platform and selecting and modifying them according to your own circumstances, you can bring better transaction experience and customer satisfaction to sellers, and at the same time, it can also save sellers a lot of cost and time. Therefore, as an eBay seller, you must understand and master the shipping methods on the platform in a timely manner and use them flexibly to add more value to your business.
