  "question": "Door to Door Freight China to Germany for Amazon FBA: Cost Breakdown — what should sellers check?",
  "answer": "For China-to-Germany FBA freight, request one cost sheet that separates origin pickup, export handling, international carriage, destination handling and delivery. State whether the endpoint is a prep warehouse or the assigned fulfillment center. The phrase door to door alone does not identify the customs or tax scope.",

      "body": "Record the chargeable quantity beside every price: kilograms, cubic meters, pallets, containers or shipments. Ask which minimum charges apply. When carton dimensions change, revise the quoted quantity before comparing total prices; two totals based on different packing lists are not comparable."

      "heading": "Build a reproducible budget",
      "body": "Use an illustrative USD 180 pickup, USD 1,400 carriage, USD 260 handling and USD 220 delivery to obtain a USD 2,060 transport subtotal. Add only separately confirmed customs-related charges, insurance and other agreed services. The example is a budgeting method, not a current Germany freight quote."

      "heading": "Request the missing lines explicitly",
      "body": "Ask about warehouse unloading, appointment changes, waiting, storage and rework. Separate known fixed fees from provisional allowances and identify the person who approves extra spending. Save the quotation version with the packing data so the final invoice can be reconciled against the accepted scope."
