Overcoming Shipping price variability from dropshipper
Typically due to border control measures the shipping and customs cost will keep changing in the dropshipping scenario. The seller is just notified about this via email. However, if he/she does not adjust the price to absorb these variations, seller could end up making losses on the sales. The situation can be handled using Konigle app in the below scenarios.
- Setting a fixed price offset in the price lock. This will be applied when there is a new price set by the dropshipping app. This will have no effect if there is no change in the price the is done externally.
- Performing a one time price offset using the price editor to absorb the change in the shipping cost and then set the fixed price offset in the price lock.
