What this means
For sellers
Shipping from the US is the norm: 82% of revenue. A global product is 21% of listings but earns a median $47.1K against $48.4K for local ones, so cross-border supply is a working route, not a handicap in these numbers.
For brands
If you ship from abroad, expect to compete with 2,274 tracked global listings that already make 18% of revenue. In Furniture that share is 65%; in Books, Magazines & Audio it is 0%, so local stock matters more there.
For affiliates
Check where a product ships from before you promote it: global shipping is above 12% of revenue in half of the categories shown, and 65% in Furniture.
