How to get free shipping on Dear-Lover?
Dear-Lover.com do not offer free shipping. Dear-Lover.com is a wholesale website that offers factory-priced women's clothing in bulk. All the products online do not include shipping costs & duties.
Which shipping methods do you offer?
We ship by international express parcel EMS/DHL/UPS/TNT, sea and air freight. We also offer an in-store collection service where you can send a pre-paid box or come to our warehouse under the guidance of a sales manager.
How to calculated the shipping cost?
Shipping cost is based on weight, so the more you buy, the more you save. For example, the EMS Express rate is almost the same whether you send 1 or 5 items. The heavier the parcel, the cheaper the postage per KG.
How to know the shipping cost before order?
The shipping cost depends on the weight, delivery way(EMS, DHL, TNT, UPS, or sea transit) and destination country. So it is difficult for us to declare an exact shipping fee before you place an order (the weight of one piece bikini is about 0.25 kg, but the sweater is about 1.1 kg). You can estimate the shipping cost here: https://www.dear-lover.com/h-shippingTool-default.html.
Do I need to pay the taxes and import duties?
Local taxes and import duties may apply in some countries and are not included in the amounts shown. The purchaser or recipient of the shipment is responsible for all such taxes and duties. Our products are sold worldwide and we cannot guarantee that they meet the import requirements of every country. If in doubt, please contact your local customs office before ordering.

How to get tax less or free upon import?
Please contact us when placing an order.
Can I have some discount on shipping rates?
Yes, of course. The shipping cost on dear-lover.com is discounted. We are the VIP customers of most international express companies, so we can have a preferentially cheaper price for shipping. For example, EMS gives us a 30% discount from the post office on the total compared with the general customer. You can also register with international express companies and send a pre-paid box to pick up your order.
Why was my order divided into two or more packages?
If your order contains pre-order items, we will ship the in-stock items in advance. Once the pre-order items arrive, we will arrange another shipment. If you submit a new order, we will default to shipping the styles that have arrived from the previous order together with the new order.
Why was the attempted delivery failed?
If your address doesn't have detailed information, has an incorrect postcode, or contains a Pobox, this may result in a delivery failure.
Why does it show package delivered but i haven't received it?
Usually, the package will be shown as having arrived only after it is signed for. If you haven't received it, please contact your sales manager to check for specific information.
The difference in logistics services between CN warehouse and US warehouse?
The CN warehouses primarily support small international packages such as YunExpress, CneExpress, etc., which typically take 12-20 business days to reach North America and Europe. The CN warehouses also support express delivery services like UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc., which typically take 5-12 business days to reach North America and Europe.The US warehouse primarily supports courier services such as USPS and FedEx, typically delivering to customers within 3-5 business days. The supported logistics vary by country/region. Thanks a lot for your understanding.
How long will it take for my order to arrive?
Generally, products will be shipped within 48 hours after you place an order, and it usually takes 5-7 days to arrive at the destination in the United States. Special products such as Pre-order and out-of-stock products need to be scheduled for delivery 2 days after the actual arrival time.
What order value qualifies for free shipping?
At present, our wholesale website calculates shipping fees based on the actual shipping costs from international logistics carriers, and no free shipping policy based on order amount. You can view accurate shipping fee estimates in real-time on the order page, which are generated according to product weight, volume, and destination, to ensure transparency and fairness in pricing.
Do you offer discounted shipping methods? How to reduce logistics costs?
Yes. We recommended Air Freight Express Line: Our flagship cost-effective logistics solution offering fully tax-included service for hassle-free international shipping. Please note that transit time may be slightly longer than standard international logistics services. To optimize cost efficiency, we suggest finalizing procurement schedules 10 days in advance. Exclusive Benefits: New customers enjoy first-order discounts, while returning clients receive progressively higher discounts based on shipping volume. Actual promotional terms will be displayed at checkout as per our dynamic pricing policy.
Can DDP shipping guarantee timelines? Current air shipments face 20+ day customs delays (vs. advertised 12-15 days).
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. Historical data shows the customs inspection delay probability is approximately 3%, which constitutes an uncontrollable administrative process. We are actively tracking the customs clearance progress of this shipment, but the actual release time depends on customs enforcement. We will continuously update you with the latest logistics tracking information.
