Lolobuy shipping lines, as quoted on October 22, 2026
321 quotes from Lolobuy's public estimator: eleven countries, three parcel weights, every line it offered.
International shipping is usually the biggest line on a Lolobuy bill after the items themselves. Lolobuy's home page speaks of 100 logistics routes; the number that matters is how many reach your country at your parcel weight, and what they charge. We asked the estimator, which needs no account, and kept every answer.
What we pulled from the estimator
The estimator at lolobuy.com/estimate asks for a destination, a weight in grams, optionally up to three product categories, and optionally the box dimensions. On October 22, 2026 we queried it for the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Poland, Canada, Australia and Brazil, at 500, 1,000 and 2,000 g, without categories or dimensions. That returned between 6 and 13 lines per country, 321 quotes in all.
Every quote came with an automatic coupon. Across all 321, the deduction was 15 per cent of the list price, or CNY 20 where 15 per cent would have been less. We show list prices, because a coupon can change; the line finder shows both.
The estimator converts to your currency with Lolobuy's own rate. The currency list it loaded that day put the US dollar at 6.2752 yuan.
The cheapest line by destination at three weights
| Destination | 500 g | 1,000 g | 2,000 g | Cheapest line at 1,000 g | Workdays |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| United States | CNY 107.50 | CNY 185 | CNY 340 | YD-GOFO-US-F | 8-12 |
| United Kingdom | CNY 51 | CNY 88.50 | CNY 163.50 | JF-Royalmail-GB-1 | 6-8 |
| Germany | CNY 66 | CNY 106 | CNY 186 | JF-Air-Ferry-DHL | 10-12 |
| France | CNY 66 | CNY 108.50 | CNY 193.50 | FR-Quickly-GOFO | 6-10 |
| Italy | CNY 72 | CNY 114.50 | CNY 199.50 | IT-Quickly-PI | 8-11 |
| Spain | CNY 66 | CNY 111 | CNY 201 | ES-Quickly-CTT | 8-11 |
| Netherlands | CNY 68.50 | CNY 111 | CNY 196 | NL-Quickly-GOFO | 6-10 |
| Poland | CNY 65 | CNY 110 | CNY 200 | PL-Quickly-DPD | 6-9 |
| Canada | CNY 72.50 | CNY 122.50 | CNY 222.50 | EUB | 9-25 |
| Australia | CNY 64 | CNY 103 | CNY 178 | JND-Australia Post-AU-1 | 10-18 |
| Brazil | CNY 96.50 | CNY 166.50 | CNY 275 | EUB | 9-25 |
The United Kingdom was the cheapest destination at every weight we tried, on a Royal Mail line. The United States was the dearest of the large markets: its two cheapest lines both listed CNY 185 for 1,000 g. The cheapest line is not always the cheapest line at every weight; the table picks the lowest price separately for each.
Delivery windows, size caps and volume weight
Delivery windows in the estimator are given in working days. For 1,000 g they ran from 4 to 12 days on Germany's fastest DHL line to 35 to 50 days on a Canadian ocean line that only takes parcels of 5,000 g and more. Most air lines quoted something between 6 and 15 working days.
Each line also has limits: a weight band, the longest side allowed and the sum of length, width and height. For the American lines the longest side was capped at 45, 50 or 60 cm and the three sides together at 90 or 100 cm. A boxed pair of high-tops with a jacket can hit those caps before it hits the weight limit.
Volume can cost more than weight. The estimator reported a volume divisor of 8,000 for the lines we pulled, while Lolobuy's older help article gives 6,000 for its own lines and 5,000 for DHL. Enter your box dimensions in the estimator for a figure that uses the current rule.
Liquids, batteries and the lines that refuse them
Perfume is a liquid, and smartwatches and speakers carry batteries. Both shrink the list of lines. We re-ran the estimator for 1,000 g to five countries with three category settings: general clothing, a liquid under daily necessities, and a watch with a matching battery.
| Destination | Clothing lines | Liquid lines | Battery lines |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | 8 | 1 (US-Sensitive-Line) | 2 (JF-USPS-US-Line-D) |
| United Kingdom | 9 | 0 | 1 (GD-EUB-T) |
| Germany | 10 | 1 (JF-Sensitive-DHL-Line) | 1 (JF-Air-Ferry-DHL-D) |
| Canada | 9 | 1 (YD-CA-Sensitive) | 3 (JY-Canadapost-CA-D) |
| Australia | 9 | 0 | 4 (JD-Australia Post-AU-D) |
Liquids had no line at all to the United Kingdom or Australia that day. If a slip is a perfume or a battery item, send it on its own or check its line before you buy.
Tax-free labels, declared value and thresholds
Most lines in our pull carried a "Tax free" label in the estimator; for the US lines it was shown on every one. That label is Lolobuy's description of the line, not a promise about your own customs office.
For six lines, among them Cosmetics Air Express and USA Air Express (Batteries), Lolobuy's help pages say tax is paid on the declared value, which is set in US dollars and converted at the live rate if you pay in yuan. Lolobuy also publishes a reference table of duty-free thresholds by country, shown here, and posted a notice about the EU customs reform; read the notice itself for anything EU-specific.
We do not give declared-value advice. The figure on a customs form is yours to state truthfully.
ShipCare and the compensation caps
ShipCare is Lolobuy's paid protection, upgraded in August 2026. It costs 5 to 6 per cent of the goods value plus international shipping and covers four things: loss, damage or partial loss, customs seizure, and delivery delay. It is only available on certain lines; Lolobuy's list of eligible lines is shown here.
The estimator showed the terms attached to the American lines: for a lost parcel, compensation at the actual value of the goods up to RMB 5,000; for partial loss or damage, up to RMB 3,000; for a customs seizure, up to RMB 3,000; and for a qualifying delay, a RMB 50 freight voucher.
Without ShipCare, a separate Lolobuy policy governs lost or damaged parcels. Read both before deciding whether a CNY 300 parcel is worth insuring.
Lolobuy's own estimator walkthrough
Lolobuy's forty-second video on the estimator shows the flow from the warehouse side: choose items, submit them as one or more parcels, and use the estimator before shipping to compare lines.
Two tips the video does not stress. Fill in the category fields: liquids and batteries remove lines, and you want to know that before paying for the item. And enter real box dimensions once you have them, because volume can make a light but bulky parcel cost more than its weight suggests.
The line finder on the tools page holds all 321 quotes from our pull, so you can compare countries and weights without running the estimator each time.
One more habit worth copying from the video: estimate before you buy heavy items, not after. A pair of boots that tips a parcel from 1,000 to 2,000 g changes the line price far more than a cheaper listing saves, and the estimator shows that in seconds.
Since an August 20, 2026 update, the route page also lists the tax type of each line, whether insurance can be added and any running discount, so the comparison covers more than price.
Forwarding parcels you bought elsewhere
Lolobuy also forwards parcels you buy elsewhere. You create a transfer order with the warehouse address and the tracking number of the parcel heading there, and it is matched to your account on arrival. Parcels that arrive without a matching order are kept as abnormal packages for only 30 days.
Forwarded parcels can be shipped together with agent purchases, which is useful if a seller ships direct to China but not abroad.
