FSBuy shipping guide 2026
International freight bills the greater of actual and volumetric weight. Use the table for orientation, the calculator for a preview, then confirm inside FSBuy’s estimator before you ship.
Why spreadsheet “deals” die at shipping
A find that looks cheap on an FSBuy spreadsheet can still lose after line haul. Soft goods (puffers, hoodies, plush) inflate volumetric weight. Dense sneakers often ship more predictably. That is why this guide sits next to the spreadsheet desk instead of living as a footnote.
Free agent storage is about 90 days from warehoused status on commonly cited FSBuy rules — enough time to QC several items and consolidate. Three separate international shipments almost always cost more than one denser parcel.

Volumetric weight preview
Common divisor 5000 (cm). Carrier rules may differ.
Consolidation checklist
Do this after QC, before you approve the international carton.
| Check | Why |
|---|---|
| All items QC’d | Returning one bad piece after freight is painful |
| Same destination | Split addresses force split parcels |
| Remove excess seller packaging when allowed | Air inside boxes is expensive |
| Apply live shipping coupon | See coupons — then re-quote |
| Compare a second agent if FX hurts | Comparison table for the fee side |
What shoppers get wrong
They compare 1 kg table cells to a 60×40×30 cm hoodie haul. They ship each warehouse item the day it arrives. They ignore that a shipping coupon can make a slower line cheaper than unpaid express. Read the estimator, not the SEO table, the morning you pay.

FSBuy shipping FAQ
Volumetric weight and consolidation questions that show up after the first quote shock.
Why is my FSBuy shipping quote higher than 1 kg table rates?
Carriers bill the greater of actual and volumetric weight. Soft goods (puffers, hoodies, plush) inflate volume. Packaging, multi-item consolidation and line choice also move the number. Treat 1 kg examples as orientation; trust the estimator on your exact parcel.
Should I ship each warehouse item separately?
Usually no. Consolidate after QC into one international parcel when free storage allows — FSBuy commonly offers about 90 days from warehoused status. Three separate international shipments almost always cost more than one denser box.
Do coupons change the shipping line I should pick?
Sometimes. A route-wide shipping pack can beat a faster unpaid line on total cost. Apply the offer in checkout, then re-read transit time vs price. Do not assume invite discounts stack with shipping packs.
What is volumetric weight?
A carrier formula that converts package size into a billable weight. A common preview divisor is length × width × height (cm) ÷ 5000. If volumetric weight exceeds scale weight, you pay the higher figure. Always confirm the divisor your chosen line uses.
How should I pack to reduce freight?
Remove unnecessary seller boxes when the agent allows, avoid shipping air, and consolidate items that share a destination. Ask warehouse photos before you approve a huge carton for a few light garments.
