Short answer: Example: a 40 × 30 × 20 cm box has a volume of 24,000 cm³; divided by 5000 that is 4.8 kg, so at an actual weight of 2 kg the chargeable weight is 4.8 kg.
With divisor 6000 the same box gives 4 kg, and with 8000 it gives 3 kg; the actual 2 kg is still lower, so size decides in each case. These numbers are illustrative, not a GTBuy parcel.
Enter your own parcel below, then compare with GTBuy's line quotes. Alex's full shipping example is in GTBuy shipping to Europe.
5000, 6000 and 8000 are divisors commonly used by carriers for centimetres and kilograms; which one applies depends on the shipping line, so check the estimate shown by GTBuy. This tool shows weights only, not prices or delivery times, and runs in your browser.
Yes, enter 40, 30, 20 and 2 kg with divisor 5000.
When the parcel is heavy for its size, such as dense items.
No, it is a hypothetical example.
