Germany

Germany returned nine routes, two of them LIT-: LIT-Quickly-DHL-DE with a window of 8 to 13 working days and LIT-Economy-DHL-DE with 10 to 15. Both cap parcels at 60 × 50 × 40 cm, bill the greater of actual and volume weight with a divisor of 8000, and carry the Tax free label.

Germany is the country named in LitBuy's available-countries card, yet it does not appear on the vote tally. The descriptions differ in one line: the Quickly route mentions a remote-area surcharge, the Economy route does not. The other seven routes include DHL, DPD and EMS options; only the EMS route is labelled Duties Payable by Recipient.

France

France returned twelve routes, three named LIT-: LIT-Quickly-GOFO-FR (10 to 15 working days, 60 × 40 × 40 cm), LIT-Quickly-DHL-FR (10 to 15, 120 × 60 × 60 cm) and LIT-Electronic-DHL-FR (12 to 18, 120 × 60 × 60 cm).

Two oddities, both from LitBuy's own text. The GOFO route's description talks about Colissimo's timeliness. And LIT-Electronic carries the same ban on charged and magnetic products as the other two in its description, despite its name. France is not on the vote tally.

Poland

Poland returned ten routes, one named LIT-: LIT-Quickly-DPD-PL, 8 to 13 working days, 75 × 55 × 55 cm, 100 g to 5.5 kg. It matches STF-DPD-PL-1 on every field we read, a coincidence we report without explaining.

Poland is also on the vote tally, in tenth place with 111 votes. So it is one of two countries that had a LIT- entry and votes at the same time.

Card summarising Poland: ten routes, one LIT- route, tally place ten, identical readings with STF-DPD-PL-1 — Poland in four lines.

The Netherlands

The Netherlands returned eleven routes. One is named LIT-Quickly-Colissimo-FR: 8 to 13 working days, 75 × 55 × 55 cm, tagged Positive User Feedback, with no route description in the response. Its name ends in FR, but it appeared in the Netherlands results, and it did not appear in the France results.

This entry was not in the planning notes written earlier the same day, so treat it as new and possibly temporary. The Netherlands is second on the vote tally with 419 votes.

A LIT- entry beside its nearest neighbour

In Germany, LIT-Economy-DHL-DE and SF-DHL-DE-1 share a window of 10 to 15 working days, a 60 × 50 × 40 cm limit, a weight range of 100 g to 20 kg, the 8000 divisor, the Tax free label and the tag Affordable & Efficient. Their route descriptions are word for word the same, down to "usually 7-14 working days", and both show the DHL logo.

The estimator showed different prices for them on 16 October: $20.17 for the LIT- entry and $20.96 for the other. That is all the published data tells us. Whether the two share a carrier contract, a warehouse lane or a rulebook is not stated, so the board lists them as two entries and the pair stays a pair.

What the seven LIT- entries share

Across Germany, France, Poland and the Netherlands we counted seven LIT- entries. All seven are air routes, all carry the Tax free label, all bill the greater of actual weight and volume weight with the 8000 divisor, and all list the same three optional paid add-ons.

They differ in reach and in limits. Windows run from 8 to 13 working days up to 12 to 18. Two entries, the Quickly routes for Germany and for France via GOFO, accept parcels from 0 g; the rest start at 100 g or 200 g. Upper limits run from 5.5 kg on the Polish entry to 30 kg on three others. Five of the seven come with a route description, and three of those five mention a remote-area surcharge.

The top-voted countries

Finland, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden and Belgium are all in the tally's top ten and all in our sample. None returned a LIT- entry. Finland returned ten routes, Austria eight, Italy ten, Switzerland five, Sweden eight and Belgium eight.

The United States (236 votes) returned fourteen routes and the United Kingdom (201) ten, again with no LIT- entry. Route counts are not a measure of anything except how many entries came back for that query.

Three cautions: one query on one afternoon; your items' shipping limits can remove entries; and a LIT- name says nothing on its own about which rulebook covers the route. Check any country on the board · Read about the two rulebooks
