Order volume estimated from publicly available e-commerce revenue data. 5% address error rate is the industry benchmark (1 in 20 orders). Carrier correction fees are published rates — FedEx charges $25.50 per address correction. Reshipment and support costs use industry averages. Your actual exposure may differ. Cozy Earth ships internationally, which typically increases error rates by ~20%.
That's equivalent to 730 free orders you could fulfill instead — or 10 hours of logistics team time per month spent resolving address issues. FedEx charges $25.50 per address correction. At your volume, that's $12,118/month before reshipments and support. International addresses have 20% higher error rates than domestic.
