Urgent notice about charge for returned parcels

Dear customers,

From July 22nd, 2022, the returned parcels of Eyoubao, EMS, SAL and Chinese Air will be invovled of a return parcel fee.

In the past years, China post parcels returned from Chinese customs didn’t charge any cost. We usually reship for free for our customers. But now a return parcel fee will be charged by the shipping company. On one hand, it is because of the continuous rise of fuel costs, on the other hand, because of a large number of prohibited products found in the parcels. So the China post side has to do something to control the prohibited products, sucn as liquid, battery, powder, magnet items, etc.

Due to this new policy from the shipping company, we are unable to reship for free for the parcels returned after July 22nd. We will quote the return parcel fee for you before we ship again your parcel. For Eyoubao parcels, the return parcel fee is 50% of your shipping cost and for EMS, SAL, Chinese Air, it is 10 CNY/ KG. We will reship the parcels after you pay the return parcel fee.

Here you can see the return parcel charge notification we got from the shipping company:

We have some suggestions to in avoid of your parcel returned:

  1. Not buy and ship prohibited items, such as contact lenses (liquid), powder and eye shadow (powder), earphone and night light (battery and magnet).
  2. Split in smaller parcels. Usually big parcels has larger return rate than smaller parcels and the big parcels return parcel fee is expensive than smaller parcels. So we suggest to split in smaller parcels to ship if possible.
  3. Don’t ship too many kinds of items in one parcel. Some customers like to combine a lot of orders and items into one parcel for shipping. Such parcels has bigger return risk, so we suggest not to ship many kinds of items in same parcel.

We do thanks for your kind understanding. Any questions please feel free to contact [email protected].
