What things actually weigh.

Forwarding is priced by weight, so the number that decides your bill is the one nobody shows you at checkout. These are dispatch weights: the item plus the box the shop sends it in.

The one kilogram line

In this estimate, billed weight below 1.0 kg uses the assumed Mini rate. From 1.0 kg it uses the Standard rate for the whole billed weight. Billing is always rounded UP in 100 g steps: 0.81 kg β†’ 0.9 kg, 0.91 kg β†’ 1.0 kg, and 1.04 kg β†’ 1.1 kg.

Rows marked crosses 1 kg can land on either side depending on the model and the box. Those are the ones to weigh in your head before ordering two.

You are set to domestic delivery, where BetterBuyWay does not add forwarding. Pick Armenia above to calculate ONEX forwarding.

How to use this

  • Add up your basket before you order. Two pairs of sneakers is close to three kilograms once boxed, which is a different price bracket entirely.
  • Pair something heavy with something light rather than two heavy things, if you are splitting an order across parcels.
  • Liquids are the usual trap: a protein tub or a set of creams weighs more than a coat.
  • Put your own number through the calculator for an estimated subtotal with simplified duty assumptions.

A warning about boxes

These are the weights of the goods as packed by the manufacturer. Some shops then put that box inside a far larger one, padded out with air pillows or cardboard, and the parcel that reaches the warehouse can weigh several hundred grams more than the table says. Outlets and department stores are the usual offenders; a single T-shirt has been known to arrive in a box big enough for a coat.

If your order is close to the kilogram line, assume the worse figure rather than the better one, and ask the forwarder to repack before sending.

Ranges are typical, not guaranteed. Manufacturers change packaging without notice, and the shop's own outer box adds anywhere from 50 to 300 grams on top.
