  2. In addition to a virtual address, YPS offers a virtual personal shopper to aid and enhance your e-commerce experience should you desire concierge assistance with purchasing a particular product for whatever reason.  Our goal is to remove any restrictions and challenges that may not allow you to shop online and across-borders.

20. How is my shipping costs calculated?

For the most part, your shipping costs are calculated by taking the volumetric weight of your package.  The volumetric or dimensional weight is calculated and compared with the actual weight of the shipment to ascertain which is greater; the higher weight is used to calculate the shipment cost due to airline/cargo regulations.

21. How is volumetric weight calculated for shipping costs?

Volumetric Weight in kilograms is calculated by multiplying Width, Length and Height together and then divided by 5000.

Width x Length x Height in centimeters / 5000 = Volumetric Weight in kilograms.

For Example a box with:

Width: 5 cm; Length: 9 cm; Height: 5 cm = .5 kg volumetric Weight

Why: (5x9x5) / 5000 = .5 kg

Initially, the only charge associated with YPS is your shipping costs.  As new services are introduced, YPS will notify you of associated costs with new services or should any policy should change.

Once your package arrives at the warehouse, our YPS team, will look to see if you have uploaded your information in our system and will update our backend database to inform you via email that your package has arrived in our warehouse; and has or will be dispatched from the virtual address to your final delivery address shortly.
