Let me just say, nobody on UA-cam compares to your amazing ability to be truthful, transparent, and clear with your invaluable advice. You have been so useful in helping me with my startup, I just want to say thank you!!
Thank you Ivan sir! That means a lot. Apologies for my late reply.
I agree. He’s great.
Recently discovered your videos and so glad that I did. You are very thorough and explain things so well in such an assured and calm manner. Some people just have a knack for teaching and you are one of them. Thank you for all your tips and insights! You deserve to have WAAAY more subscribers
Very well explained. This is probably the most underrated channel for Amazon.
Totally agree.
Thank you Aasim, that means a lot to me!!

100%agree
Dan your content is unprecedented... Please keep it up... Stay humble, stay focused ... You are up to great things... I see your channel growing to 100 Subs very very quickly
This is the first video I'm watching on your channel. I have watched at least 50 more videos on this same topic. Still there were so many new things I learned from this. High Value content. Thanks & subscribed.
I really have to say that everytime I search for information concerning some aspect of Amazon FBA, your videos are almost always the absolute best in terms of providing actionable information without a lot of fluff or off-topic nonsense. Your videos get right to the point in providing the information I need. Really amazed at the content you provide!
It really amazes me how often your videos pop up when I do google searches for a VERY specific concern I have related to FBA. You are providing a gold mine of information and seem to do it in a wholly transparent and honest way (unlike many who only use their UA-cam platform merely as a come-on to a paid course or affiliate link. KUDOS TO YOU!
Thanks so much for taking time to give us this very useful free content

@@DanRodgers thanks to u too brother , do u have any facebook group
Very helpful info, once again.
great video thanks Dan
This is really helpful for someone struggling to figure all this stuff out selling on Amazon, thanks for breaking it down so well. Great content. It would be great to learn more about how to lower shipping charges with Amazon, because once you send that FCL shipment quantity, you are looking at either disbursed distribution, which is very timely and may cost you a lot having a freight forwarder do it. The more efficient alternative but is very expensive eating away all your margins is the FBA inventory placement service. So what's the best way moving forward there to keep your costs minimal, this is especially important as we are talking about larger quantities for FCL and ultimately lowering cost-per-unit.
Hey ACT! There are 4 main options:
1) Send to a non-Amazon wwarehouse in the country first and then distribute in batches to Amazon, often a smaller batch will allow one warehouse.
2) Create and delete shipping plans until one shipping plan gives you only one warehouse to ship to ;)
3) Use Sellerize. One of their features allows you to get placement for free, I am not sure how they manage to do this but they do.
4) Use Amazon's inventory placement.
Very good information , thank you so much
Great video as always Dan. Thank you!!!
You got it Johnny! 😁
cartons, boxes, cases. Thanks for clarifying the differences in your video
Always very helpful and amazing pace, thanks
Thank you Khurram
A South African UA-camr in this business just gave me so much relief. I heard your accent and I had Leonardo DiCaprio moment 😅
I've been selling on Amazon since 2017 and I still get confused when it comes to shipping hand Freight forward information. This is one of the best videos I've seen so far.
Awesome content Dan. Super well explaind!👍
Thank you Kurt!
As always, super informative! Baie dankie!

Thanks Dan for sharing this valuable information. I hit the like button and subscribed to your channel. Question: Do you think you can create a step by step video on how to set up a Amazon DDP sea shipping plan from China to the US?
Hi Dan, i am the first viewer on this video. LOL . bundle of thanks for the new video in advance because I have not watch yet. i know it will be great content.
You got it Sarfaz! Let me know if you have any other questions on shipping!
Hi Dan, Great video very informative. I have a question if you may answer. There is a section in Freightos "Additional Details" where there is an option called "I am a foreign Importer". If I don't stay in the US do I need additional documentation like an EIN number for importing?
Hi Dan, great info as always. As you mentioned that FCL is better and cheap compared to LCL, but what to do when the units and weight is over than suggested air shipment and way less than FCL. For instance, 1000 units and 700kgs? Also one factor is still unknown to me, you have calculated the total cost of shipping per unit but is there any custom fee we need to pay after the product arrives in US or Europe? If it is, how do we calculate it for each unit. I am stuck finding that information as could change the fate of a product. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the vid, never really understood this, but when do you actually buy the barcode, can you buy the barcode before even buying from the supplier. And can you add your product onto amazon before purchasing the products from the supplier? Also, can you use the pictures of the product that the supplier has sent you instead of making your own ? Please answer it would really help. Thanks!
Hi Dan, I am just researching setting up through FBA and I was interested in the shipping plans. Can I ask the purpose of the Delivery Service aspect in Seller Central? If the Freight Forwarder takes care of all costs including duty and the actual delivery to the Amazon Warehouse, why is this needed? I am just a little confused as to its purpose as it seems to be about the delivery from the port in the UK for example to the warehouse in say Coventry? Thank you and I have really enjoyed watching some of your tutorials.
Thanks for yet another great video. Am creating my first shipping. Let say i created shipping plan on 01.01.2021. My freight forwarder shipps my products from China on 25.01.2021. The product is expected to arrive Amazon warehouse on 26.01.2021. My question is this: Will this plan expire within this time? in general does shipping plan have an expiring date? say a fixed window time by which Amazon must recieve the shippement based on the shipping plan created. Thanks for your support.
Thanks Dan
what are the examples of shipping line?
Are the UPS FEDEX the ones? and when the goods are sent by sea or air, which companies are sending?
I'm confused with freight forwarders and shipping couriers(UPS, Fedex etc)
Hey bro, excellent video thanks! Do you know how to access to the FBA option now on freightos? I think they update the website and now super weird and confusing
Thank you for the video. I have a question specially when there is imventory limits at Amazon, but even if there wasn't any limits , what is your take on what to fill on these containers. Different products ? If they are different products then there is a chance your suppliers are based in different cities, but if they are same.products , can you imagine sending full container to amazon ? How long would it take to sell it if they accept it
Thank you very much
Please write the link of the company you use to ship sample all collected together
You taught better than paid gurus ♠️
I also want to add some small advice; I picked a freight forwarders from my own country instead of choosing a coperate one. The plus side of this is that
1. They speak my language (dutch).
2. There is no middle men involved which means that I have a direct contact with the sale persons from the freight forward company.
3. They have their own shipment containers for rail, air and sea, so your shipment will be together with their shipments from their customers only. Makes me feels like that my shipment will always be complete.
4.They responds very quickly to my emails, which gave me the trust that IF something goes wrong we can communicate and solve the issue quickly.
The freight forwarder i picked could also give me a quote within a week, while the others freight forwarders took much more time to responds. And luckily they also have experience with Amazon deliveries :D
Sisa this awesome! Great insight!! :)
Ik ben erg benieuwd welke jij gebruikt, ben zelf startende / zoekende. alle hulp is welkom.
Hi Sisa, ik moet nog beginnen, welke freight company gebruik je voor amazon?
Wonderful 👏 video, I am struggling to find good supplier any advice
Hello Dan. Absolutely love the quality of your content and editing skills (or your brother's).
Do you think you'd be able to save up on your shipping costs if you chose the shipping destination on freightos to be the port, then taking advantage of Amazon's discounted shipping rates to ship to their warehouse? Would love to hear your thoughts on this one.
Thanks Naser! That's a good thought however, I wouldn't do it just for the sake of simplicity and time. Having it booked straight through will save a ton of time while doing it this other way, may save a bit of funds but I don't think enough to justify the potential pitfalls
@@DanRodgers Thanks Dan. Upon analyzing and comparing all options, I ended up having the freight forwarder send it all the way through. It turned out to be more cost effective. A bit of a surprise but hey more money with less work I'll take that any day.
@@NaserAlOqabkindly recommend the freight forwarder you used. Thank you
Thanks Dan I accidentally found your channel and I'm totally in love with your channel your explanation is exemplary keep doing this good work and have a confusion in the end I think I won't be able to buy 12000 to 16000 units because there are too many so how would I fill the container n save the cost ?
TheFredy thank you sir! Start smaller with LTL and then with time you can build up to orders that will fill a container at least 70% and at that time you can think about FTL :)
You mentioned choosing Amazon Texas warehouse. If I’m targeting Canada marketplace which Amazon warehouse you recommend I Choose…? What criteria do you use for such decisions. Thanks.
I didn't see an option to choose whether you're using a partial or full container and what the price differences are. At what point on freightos or with a freight forwarder do you make that selection?
Hi on the part where it says who is palleting the products, is it necessary to have them on pallets or can you send them in as individual cartons?
What if u have a partial shipment u wana ship to amz fba n the rest to 3PL.? How do u arrange this with freightos ?
Awesome channel .. wish I bought your course instead of the one I did 😢
I'm not sure why shipping confuses me so much. If my supplier has the Amazon barcode destination for the product and I ship by air, will it get to there just like that? Or will I need to organise another courier to pick up the products from the airport
Hey there, thank you for this extremely helpful video! I have one question if you don't mind, what if you choose to do half air shipment and half sea shipment? How would you create a shipping plan in this case? Thanks in advance!
You can create 2 shipping plans in this case, each with their own details :) They might go to different warehouses but that's okay
Hi Dan, Is that ok If I choose to Ship my Product through SEA instead of AIR.
Is anyone providing information on Amazon selecting multiple warehouse for delivery. Is there an easy calculator for shipping cost on this issue?
Another great video Dan, thanks a lot for a well-explained tutorial! One question though. What is the maximum box/carton weight Amazon is okay with? You mentioned it in another video but cannot pinpoint this info. Thanks a lot!
I think it's generally 50 pounds. But you can ship heavier single items
Great question Remi! I knew it would be asked when I watched the vid back.
25 inches on any side of the carton is the max for the US.
63.5 cm on any side for the UK.
@@DanRodgers Beautiful thanks a lot!
For context its just the freight fowarder you will be contacting and payingfor all theses services.
Hi! Another great video. I regret I didn't find you earlier.
Where I can check prices for LCL and FCL to be sure which option will be cheaper? If I use freight forwarder can I ask him what option he chose - LCL or FCL?
Thanks

hello could you tell me where I could find a price list to compare Chinese FF
do you know what about in the UK with the VAT ? nobody really talks about that part.
Hi there, ive 75pcs of goods ant the total weight with packaging is just 3kg.. but the shippment from china to us costs 129 usd.. isnt that too much for just 3kg of weight?
hi dan, you always brings a good content, but I wanna ask, if the freight forwarder also do the third party inspection for the product, if not, can you suggest a great inspectors to do the final check before proceeding to shipment. Thanks
Hey Maria, thanks! Yes, check out movley.com, also have a video coming out on this soon :)
@@DanRodgers I appreciate your response. thank you so much Dan, I always admire how you teach well clearly, always been your number 1, liker. :) see you on your next videos.
Can you just get a 20ft container and have multiple products from varies suppliers and have them shipped to Amz FBA Centers? Is that possible? If so how do you get varies products from varies suppliers products into one container
11:50 for the shipping to an Amazon warehouse, you only chose one but is there a good possibility it can be more than one? For example if it was 3 or 4 warehouses, that would be more expensive.

Hi all, just needed a help. So I am shipping my goods from china and it will going to be less than 200kg , So I am thinking about using EXW, since this could be a better choice, however for the amazon seller central when creating a shipping plan what should I write on the SHIP FROM address if I am using EXW?
