As a major e-commerce platform in China, Alibaba's high postage is affected by many factors.

First, since many sellers need to ensure the quality and safe delivery of goods, they will choose to choose express companies to collect items on their behalf, and customers need to pay the express delivery fee.

At the same time, since a large number of Alibaba sellers are concentrated in cities, the express delivery costs to and from rural addresses are higher, which also leads to high postage.

Secondly, Alibaba occupies a place in the field of Internet retail. Its huge market size and continued growth mean that more people use the platform and the order volume increases, which naturally leads to higher logistics costs and higher postage. Although Alibaba has formulated preferential policies for some logistics services, the freight price of terminal express delivery is still high, and perhaps it will change in the future with the increase in competition.

Alibaba's postage is relatively expensive. This is mainly because Alibaba provides cross-border e-commerce services worldwide, and needs to bear more additional costs such as logistics, taxes, and tariffs. In addition, Alibaba will also adopt higher standards of logistics solutions to ensure the safety and quality of goods. Therefore, Alibaba's high postage is an inevitable phenomenon. Furthermore, we can also see that in order to ensure the success of cross-border e-commerce business, Alibaba has made a lot of investments in addition to factors such as logistics costs, such as personnel training, technology upgrades, etc., and has established a complete customer service system to provide customers with better services. These factors require additional investment and corresponding costs to support.

1.

Long transportation distance: Alibaba's sellers may be located all over the country, and buyers may also be located in different places. Therefore, the transportation distance is long and the freight is naturally high.

2.

Mail method: Alibaba provides a variety of mailing methods, such as ordinary express, express mail, air transportation, sea transportation, etc., and the corresponding fees for different mailing methods are also different. Generally speaking, fast mailing methods such as express mail and air transportation are more expensive.
