When you purchase a new, refurbished, used, or collectible item from a seller at Amazon Marketplace, you pay immediately, online. Included in your payment is a precalculated fee for shipping.
Marketplace Shipping TimeSellers agree to ship within 2 business days of your purchase. Expected transit times for each shipping method are listed below.
- Standard U.S.: 4 to 14 business days after shipping (may take up to 21 business days)
- Expedited U.S.: 2 to 6 business days after shipping
- International Standard: 3 to 6 weeks ( may take 8 to 12 weeks due to customs delays)
Marketplace shipping times are not guaranteed and the actual performance varies by seller.
Marketplace Shipping ChargesYour shipping fees when buying items at Amazon Marketplace are fixed according to the type of product you purchase.
Rates are based on shipping a single item. Purchasing multiple items results in multiple shipping charges--there are no "per shipment" and "per item" charges, as there are when you buy directly from Amazon.com.
For buyers within the United States, shipping charges and options vary according to the product being purchased, and are listed in the chart below. Note: non-U.S. buyers at Amazon Marketplace must be located in a country covered by Amazon.com Payments.

Please note: Buyers outside the U.S. cannot purchase the following types of items via Amazon Marketplace: video games, toy and baby items, electronics, cameras and photo items, tools and hardware, kitchenware and housewares, sporting goods and outdoor equipment, software, and computers.

Amazon.com charges Marketplace buyers a flat rate for shipping, and funds are passed to the seller to offset the costs of packaging and labor, as well as the actual postage required.
The credit given to a seller will usually closely match what the seller pays to ship the item, using the option that you have chosen (Standard or Expedited). However, there may be times when the credit a seller is given for a Marketplace order will be above and beyond what is actually paid for postage. Shipping costs are an inherent feature in any mail-order service, and we hope that you will understand.
