There are three key reasons why you should purchase the item for the buyer:
- You will know exactly what you are packing in your suitcase.
- You will ensure that the item complies with air transport safety regulations.
- You will prevent financial risks and fraud if the buyer does not pick up the order.
Since you will be purchasing the item yourself, you will know what you are packing. However, make sure that the item is allowed for import into the country you are traveling to. Here is information on importing prohibited items.
Follow the instructions below and always stay in touch with your buyers so they know how you plan to deliver their item. If you plan to bring the item without the original packaging, it is better to inform the buyer in advance. Here is how Parlaxy recommends packing your suitcase:
- Place bottles in the center of the suitcase, avoiding the corners.
- Disassemble large items in advance.
- Carry gadgets and other expensive items in your carry-on luggage.
- Use clothing for additional protection of items.
- Place heavier items at the bottom of the suitcase.
- Consider removing items from packaging to save space if the buyer agrees.
