Shipping fee will be automatically calculated by our delivery system strictly according to the latest postage rates of the delivery providers (China's Post, DHL). Shipping fee will vary depending on the shipping method you choose, the weight of your orders and your destination. Chinabookshop.net is always trying to bargain with the delivery providers on behalf of our customers to achieve the lowest postage rates. Currently postage rates that these delivery providers offer to Chinabookshop.net are 40%-60% lower than they provide to others.

If the difference is more than 1kg, we will refund corresponding shipping fee to our customers.
