Every acronym, term, and piece of slang you need to navigate the shopping agent world with confidence.
Walking into the shopping agent community without knowing the lingo is like visiting a foreign country without a dictionary. W2C, GL, RL, GP, batch, haul — these terms are the currency of communication. This dictionary covers every term you need to read posts, ask questions, and make informed purchases.

Shipping & Logistics Terms
Beyond the basics, there is a whole vocabulary around shipping. "Rehearsal packing" means the agent pre-packs to give you exact weight. "Volumetric weight" is the dimensional calculation carriers use for bulky items. "Declared value" is the amount you tell customs the package is worth, which affects duties.
Mastering this vocabulary takes you from confused beginner to confident buyer in days. When you understand what GL and RL mean, you can participate in QC threads and learn from the community at 10x the speed of someone guessing.
