Step 1
Cash on delivery is a type of postage that is paid not by the sender, but by the recipient. If you want to send someone a valuable cargo, magazines or disks, cash on delivery can easily solve the problem with payment for the goods, since it includes not only the cost of the shipment itself, but also the full cost of the parcel. So, first agree with the recipient that you will send the parcel with cash on delivery, get his consent to this and make sure that at the time the parcel arrives, he will be in place and will be able to receive it. If the addressee does not pick up his shipment within the specified period, the parcel will be returned to you and you will also pay for it, respectively.
Step 2
Sending a parcel post by cash on delivery consists of two stages. The first stage is the actual dispatch of the parcel. You make an inventory indicating the value of the investment. When sending, you must fill out two forms: one for a parcel post, and the second for transferring money from the buyer. Do not forget that the maximum weight of the parcel should not exceed 2 kg, and the sum of the length, width and height of the box should not exceed 0.9 m. Fill out the shipment forms carefully and indicate only the exact address and zip code. If your parcel will wander around post offices for a long time, its cost may increase significantly.
Step 3
Now a few words about the cost of such a parcel for the buyer. The calculation is based on the following parameters: the declared value of the parcel, its weight and distance of departure. The tariff for sending by cash on delivery is 4 kopecks for each ruble of the declared value of the parcel. That is, if the initial cost is 100 rubles, the cost of delivery by cash on delivery will be 4 rubles. In addition to this, the cost of sending the parcel to the place of receipt is added. This amount will need to be paid to you upon shipment, but the recipient will pay it again along with the total cost of the shipment, so that, after a while, the money for the shipment will pay off. In addition, the recipient makes you a money transfer for the goods themselves, received by the parcel, and also pays the commission for the postal money order and some tax fees.
