Dear “rajelectroniks",
Please see a reply to your questions.
1) 1st there is no 250gm slot which is foolishness on part of ebay not to have it, this is just one way to make money by ebay.
250 gms slot is generally available only for sending documents / papers and not for items, which is precisely the reason it is not offered on PowerShip. We are discussed the possibility of 250 gms accommodating some of the items like screen guard, etc. However, this again may not taken even small items like Pen drives.
2) 2nd is the sales invoice to be given in triplicate, who will print out 25-50 pages extra per day and bear the printing cost?.
Documentations required by LSPs are for clearing items and connect them to destination on priority. LSPs are committed to deliver the goods in least amount of time and good documentation will help you in the process of delighting the buyers experience.
3) 3rd the LSP need a VAT paid invoice for every item sent, how many sellers on ebay have a VAT invoice ???.
Selling is a serious business and we encourage sellers to comply with state requirements related to VAT and Taxes.
4) 4th, the LSP will now ask for entry forms for every state in India, who will give those forms and how many states are there without any sort of entry forms, 5-6 only.
Rightly said, some states require specific forms to be filled in and submitted by the consignor or consignee. These are state specific requirements and not something LSP or eBay can influence.
Regards,
Seema
