Warehouse and shipping
When to Combine or Split OOTDBuy Warehouse Parcels
Decide whether to wait for a late item, ship the ready items, or request quotes for two parcel plans.
Make a list of the items that are ready
For each item, record whether it has arrived, whether you have accepted it, and any storage deadline shown in your account. Mark the earliest date you need each item. If a seller is late, ask for a status update and a realistic next step before committing the rest of the order to a long wait.
For example, two sweaters might already be ready while a third item is awaiting a seller response. Compare waiting for all three with sending the two ready items. Note the extra time, the earliest warehouse deadline and whether the late item is likely to need a return or exchange.
Compare the plans as whole shipments
Ask for the current terms for each plan. The one-parcel plan needs a route that accepts every item together. For the two-parcel plan, compare the combined price of both shipments and any service charges with the one-parcel quote. Record which products and package measurements each quote covers before choosing.
Set a decision date from your actual storage and delivery needs. If the warehouse deadline or available routes are unclear, ask support to confirm them for the specific items before the decision date.
