Budget Shipping Options

For small orders under 2kg, EUB and postal packets offer the cheapest shipping at 8-12 EUR. These take 15-25 days but work well for low-value items. EMS is a middle-ground option at 10-16 EUR with 10-15 day delivery. DHL remains the best value for orders over 200 EUR due to speed and reliability.

When to Choose Cheaper Shipping

Choose cheaper shipping for low-value items under 100 EUR, non-urgent orders, and items you can afford to wait for. Avoid cheap shipping for expensive items, time-sensitive orders, or fragile products. The oopbuy spreadsheet marks recommended shipping for each product category.

Cost Saving Strategies

Combine multiple items into one shipment to reduce per-item cost. Use shipping coupons when available. Choose sellers with free shipping thresholds. Avoid unnecessary insurance on low-value items. Plan orders ahead to avoid rush shipping fees.
