Why Fast Means Expensive: And How We Keep Delivery Costs Down
At Cosy Deals we believe everyone deserves to live like a legend in the luxury of their very own backyard. To achieve this dream we strive to bring you the lowest possible prices without compromising on quality. This means we have to make strategic decisions to reduce costs. Some of these cost-saving measures can impact delivery times, which we understand can be frustrating.
Our customers sometimes ask us: "Why do your delivery times shift?"
Let us explain why this situation may happen, and how our strategic decisions can help you save thousands.
𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁
𝟭. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 🛠
To secure the lowest possible prices for our products we order directly from factories. This saves on cost but sometimes production cycles can face delays. At Cosy Deals we are constantly seeking to improve our service and shorten delivery times where possible.ย
𝟮. 𝗦𝗲𝗮 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 🚢
Direct sea shipping is a faster but significantly more expensive option. To save costs, we sometimes choose ships that route through Hong Kong. This helps us keep prices low without compromising on the quality of the products you receive.
𝟯. 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 🚛
To keep our local delivery costs minimal we optimize our land shipping process. This involves waiting for trucks heading in the right delivery direction, which can extend delivery times. By doing this, we can afford to maintain low prices and offer free shipping to our customers.
𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀
The three factors outlined above help us to decrease costs by a whopping 25-30%. While it would be ideal to have items delivered to your door faster, fast delivery is expensive. Thatโs why our Cosy Deals slogan is: โGood things come to those who wait!โ. By choosing more economical shipping and production methods we give you the best value for money, so you can enjoy living your dream outdoor lifestyle for less.
