Headwear entries in the spreadsheet
Caps and beanies are the cheapest category to move and the easiest to damage in transit. Almost every item lands in the light band and volumetric weight is irrelevant. What matters is whether the seller ships them flat or stuffed, because a deformed crown is the most common reason a return becomes necessary.

Why this category costs what it costs
The billing driver for headwear is actual weight, which makes the freight predictable and the packing decision less consequential. On the US — Economy lane a parcel in this category lands between $5.90 and $24.30 of freight depending on which band it ends up in.
Three of the six cost segments are effectively fixed once the weight band is known: domestic delivery, the service fee and insurance. The two that move are international freight and duty, and both move for reasons that are visible before payment rather than after.
| Segment | Why it moves | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| International freight | Billed weight and lane | Ask for packed dimensions before paying freight |
| Duty | Declared value against the destination threshold | Confirm the declaration and keep the record |
| Service fee | The agent’s fee model, not the category | Compare percentage against flat at your order size |
Segments are modelled from the census ranges. The item value itself is the only published figure in the estimate.
