Practical tips before you use the result
- Use current figures from your Seller Central reports, supplier quotation, invoice or other primary records.
- Keep the units consistent. Do not mix inches with centimetres, kilograms with pounds, or one currency with another.
- Test more than one realistic scenario when comparing prices, costs or campaign settings.
- Save or record the result you need before closing or refreshing the page.
- U.S. Customs requires the Country of Origin marking (e.g., 'Made in Vietnam' or 'Made in China') to be clearly legible and indelible on every retail unit.
- Avoid removable paper adhesive stickers for Country of Origin markings if possible; printed markings directly on packaging are strongly preferred by customs inspectors.
Use confirmed carton dimensions, gross weights and freight quotations. Carriers and fulfillment networks apply their own measurement and billing rules.
