Hi Lethabo,

The shipping cost for your two items via China Post will depend on the service you choose (e.g., ePacket, SAL, or Air Mail) and the destination country. However, I can help estimate the cost based on total weight and volumetric weight.

Step 1: Calculate Total Weight & Volumetric Weight
Actual Weight:

Flip flops: 0.556 kg

Shoes: 1.562 kg

Total Actual Weight = 2.118 kg

Volumetric Weight (for air freight):

Formula: (Length × Width × Height in cm) / 5000 (China Post’s divisor)

Flip flops: (29 × 11 × 9) / 5000 = 0.574 kg

Shoes: (35 × 19 × 13) / 5000 = 1.729 kg

Total Volumetric Weight = 2.303 kg

Chargeable Weight:

China Post uses the higher of actual or volumetric weight.

Final Chargeable Weight = 2.303 kg → Rounded up to 2.5 kg

Step 2: Estimated Shipping Cost (China Post)
Destination Matters! (Example: USA, UK, Australia, etc.)

Sample Rates (for reference only, check latest China Post rates):

ePacket (2.5 kg to USA): ~¥180-¥250 (~$25-$35)

Air Mail (2.5 kg to Europe): ~¥200-¥300 (~$28-$42)

SAL (Sea-Air, cheaper but slower): ~¥150-¥220 (~$20-$30)

Step 3: Possible Extra Fees
If the package exceeds certain dimensions, additional fees may apply.

Insurance (optional) may add a small cost.
