Understanding FedEx Rate Finder at fedex.com Most sellers on Plusto allow a potential buyer to request a sample before bidding on or buying the item. Sellers often list items a few weeks before the scheduled auction or sale to give potential buyers a chance to experience the quality of the product.

To help ensure that samples arrive in time and in good condition, Plusto selected FedEx Express® as our preferred carrier for those shipments. Why? Because we have a passion for speed and efficiency and we offer the reliable delivery Plusto sellers and buyers expect.

FedEx Rate Finder, which can be found at fedex.com and on each Item Listing page on Plusto, allows you to get instant rate quotes and to schedule and track shipment status using a variety of FedEx® services based on the seller’s country of origin and buyer’s destination. With FedEx Express, you can count on delivery to over 220 countries and territories, typically within 1 to 3 days.
