USPS, eBay China, China Post in delivery deal
The U.S. Postal Service has signed a three-way deal with eBay Greater China and China Post Express & Logistics Corp.
The deal will see the companies collaborate on light shipments of goods ordered by U.S. consumers from eBay sellers in China. Buyers will be able to track their shipments with electronic notifications at ebay.cn while the shipment is still in China. Upon arrival in the United States, the shipments will be processed as domestic First-Class Mail, with a one- to three-day delivery standard.
'This collaboration will increase convenience and improve delivery consistency for American consumers ordering small shipments from merchants in China, and holds great potential for increasing international package volumes for the Postal Service,' said Pranab Shah, managing director and vice president of global business. 'We look forward to working with our business partners to build upon this agreement as we move forward.'
