Ebay plans to deliver order delivery service to US and Chinese sellers

Such services are called order delivery services in the E-commerce industry.　　With this service, if a sunglasses manufacturer sells goods through ebay, it will no longer personally need to deal with inventory and shipping, as long as the sunglasses are sent to ebay's warehouses and the rest of the storage and delivery services will be handled by ebay. Johnna Hoff, a spokeswoman for ebay, said the project would be implemented this year and would be Joanna Hoff for some U.S. and Chinese sellers.

One of the goals of this delivery service is to shorten the delivery time for Chinese sellers.　　The average time spent by US buyers buying Chinese sellers via ebay was 18 days, and ebay wanted to shorten that period by half.　　It is unclear whether ebay will use its own warehouses or outsource companies to handle the business. The service matches ebay's recovery plan.　　John Donahoe, CEO of Donahoe, has tried to revive ebay, which has been slower than the overall growth of the e-commerce market.　　ebay changed its billing model this March to encourage sellers to provide free delivery services, a common practice for many online retailers such as Amazon.

Sucharita Mulpuru, a Forrester analyst at US market research firm Suchali Tah Mourproux, said ebay's move was aimed at competing with Amazon, which has provided storage and shipping services to Third-party sellers.
