Hoodies/Sweaters entries in the spreadsheet

Hoodies and sweaters are the classic volumetric trap. A single heavyweight hoodie compresses to about 3–4 litres but a two-piece order with a fleece lining reaches 7 litres, which at the 5000 divisor lands at 1.4 kg of volumetric weight against roughly 1.2 kg on the scale. The billed weight therefore flips toward volumetric before the parcel looks heavy.

Why this category costs what it costs

The billing driver for hoodies/sweaters is a mix of the two, which is why this category carries the widest estimate error on the site. 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.

Segments are modelled from the census ranges. The item value itself is the only published figure in the estimate.
