Shipping Planning with Spreadsheet
Effective shipping planning within your oopbuy spreadsheet prevents unexpected costs and delays. Here is how to structure your shipping data.
Weight Estimation
Estimate item weights early. Shoes typically weigh 0.8-1.2kg per pair, hoodies 0.4-0.7kg, t-shirts 0.2-0.3kg, and accessories 0.1-0.3kg. Record these estimates in your oopbuy spreadsheet to calculate total shipment weight.
Shipping Method Comparison
| Method | Speed | Cost | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Express | 3-7 days | High | Low |
| Standard | 10-20 days | Medium | Medium |
| Economy | 20-40 days | Low | Higher |
Cost Planning Tips
- Always add 10-15% buffer to weight estimates
- Factor in potential customs fees separately
- Group lightweight items together to save on per-item fees
- Track actual vs estimated costs to improve future accuracy
