*Excess consolidation fee (per box): 13.00.

2A. Explanation of Standard Item Charges and Volume Discounts
*Standard volume calculation: Length x Width x Height in cm / 6000 = Volumetric Weight
*Volumetric standard calculation: Length x Width x Height in inches / 150 = Volumetric Weight
*Charges are calculated based on the discounted weight.
Example 1: Calculation Explanation for Tax Included MMM Route Charges
*Actual weight of the package: 5 kgs
*Calculation of volumetric weight: (Length x Width x Height in inches) divided by (6000)
(20 x 30 x 20) divided by 6000 = 2 kgs
*Freight calculation: (Actual weight 5kgs) greater than or equal to (volumetric weight 2 kgs)
Therefore, calculated based on actual weight, package 5 kgs = first weight 143 1kg+ additional weight (([5-1]x 143))= 715

Attention:
1. When selecting package consolidation, we may merge or decide not to unpack packages. If there's excessive space inside the package, to prevent damage from shaking, we might resize the box during handling. We may also replace the original box for export, but our staff have the authority to determine that the original box cannot withstand the load and replace it without additional charges.
2. To minimize issues during customs clearance, we reserve the right to inspect your goods by opening the box.
3. After multiple packages are consolidated, there may be differences in weight. If the local consolidation warehouse has completed packing and organizing, we will no longer verify the packages' dimensions (length, width, height, and weight). However, you can request customer service to recheck the weight and dimensions in Taipei Warehouse, and no fees will be charged. We do not accept complaints after you receive the packages.

*Starting from the 26th day of storage beyond the free period, a storage fee will be applied.
6. The abandonment period for packages is 45 days.
7. Once the order is established, even if payment has not been made yet, warehouse staff may decide to ship the package back to the destination. If you do not want the package shipped out, please do not establish the order. If you need to return the package, the member is responsible for all costs.
8. For packages delivered to Taiwan (TPE Warehouse), if you discover damage upon receipt, please record the unpacking with video, keep the original box, and contact the delivery company directly or request a claim from other logistics companies within 48 hours. Claims will be compensated by the logistics company to you, and we will not act as an intermediary or assist in claims.

The compensation standard is determined by the logistics company (limited to the Convenience Store Pickup and Kerry Freight Company). We do not participate in this process. Other logistics companies follow their own policies.
