Shipment
Are shipping charges extra?
Yes, shipping is extra.
Why shipping is not free when other sites offer free shipping when order amount is above certain amount?
There are multiple reasons why shipping is not free. One simple concept is that whether a seller is charging shipping as extra or not but there is shipping cost incurred by the seller. As shipping cost depends on weight and distance we believe in charging the actuals.

A) Distance Factor
Based on the distance cost varies, so it can't be same for all locations for an item. If shipping is made free it means seller has already included shipping cost to item cost. So, when a nearby buyer is purchasing then also he/she is paying more shipping.

B) Multi Item Order
In cases when shipping is offered for free, the related costs involved would have already been added to item price. Let's take an example. A buyer is purchasing 2 items, item A and item B. Individually shipping the items cost 120 and 180 respectively. Now that it has been added to item costs already which buyer will be paying assuming that shipping is free. As shipping depends on total weight then it would have been possible that when both items are being shipped together then shipping cost is less than 300 (120+180).
By what ship carrier type you send goods?
Most of the orders are shipped by courier. In some cases transport or postal is used.
Which transport mode you use?
We generally send by surface courier. In some cases we send by Air mode also.
Why shipping charges are being charged for more weight when actual weight is less?
Shipping weight depends on actual or volumetric weight whichever is more. Actual weight is calculated based on item weight plus packing weight. Volumetric weight is calculate based on package dimensions. Like an item may weigh 400 gms. Packing weight is say 60 gms. Volumetric weight of packed item could be 800 gms. So, in this case shipping weight would be 800 gms (more of packed weight & volumetric weight).
Are the shipping prices shown are actual price?
These are estimated calculated prices to given a rough idea. Actual prices may differ based on certain factors like weight, mode, place, vendor pricing.
