redwood1 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Look at this Dog House here https://www.lazada.co.th/products/well-ware-ag616-light-blue-i366889-s389012.html?search=1 The price for shipping says 64 baht when I am logged out, but when I log in the shipping charge increases to 120 baht... Look at this blender https://www.lazada.co.th/products/sliver-crest-11-2l-4500w-blender-i2872197788-s10485471229.html?search=1 When I am logged out the shipping says 44 baht but when I log in the shipping says 90 baht.... I always try and get the rock bottom prices on things so this change in shipping price bothers me.....This is the first time I ever noticed this happening.....Very Strange..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post asiacurious Posted April 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2022 It's based on location. You can see this without even logging in. Look in the upper right corner on the page. Click the change and try a new postal code. As others have said, when you log in they know the exact shipping address. Before you log in they're just guessing based on the data they're getting from your browser/internet provider...... If I use the Chatuchak postal code the shipping is 64 baht.... If I change it to a postal code in Pattaya shipping goes up to 120 baht..... 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwood1 Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 I guess you guys are right about shipping distance....But I have also noticed different sellers of the same product charge different shipping costs and Shopee most of the time has lower shipping cost than Lazada.... Boy I wish they had Prime shipping like Amazon, where for a fee you get free shipping for 1 year..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have managed to never use Lazada here or Amazon in the USA and spend six months in each place. I really don't get habitual shoppers. Why do you guys need so much junk? How many blenders and dog houses does one really need? Edited April 18, 2022 by alex8912 4 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotJoeMama Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Same thing happened to me. For the longest time, the shipping price would not change between browsing price and logged in price. After I had purchased probably 10 or 15 items over about 6 months, then it changed. It would go from 30 to 44 or something like that each time. It wasn't the distance as they knew where i was from the start. I have no doubt they saw that I do purchase from Lazada regularly so they upped the shipping as they figure it won't change my decision. Just another way to add profit. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your looged in it knows your location. you can easily and quickly verify that by changing address! (quicker than posting online!) put in "ship to" bangkok 10110 and its 64baht and then ship to pattaya (20150) 120 baht the "we hate farang" mystery solved! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Tongue Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Oh lordy no! Shipping increases? It isn't as if there's global fuel disruptions, inflation, or a war going on right now! Even Amazon has tacked-on a +5% fuel & inflation surcharge to their prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwood1 Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) If shipping was free as in 100% free.....I bet Lazadas sales would go crazy.... When you order cheap things, those 35 - 42 - 44 - 64 baht shipping charges start adding up fast...... Edited April 19, 2022 by redwood1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
