Core Viewpoint - The express delivery station business, once considered a low-threshold and stable cash flow opportunity for ordinary people, is now losing its appeal due to declining profitability and increasing operational challenges [3][10]. Group 1: Business Performance and Trends - A delivery station owner, Cheng Si, sold his station for over 60,000 yuan just a month after acquisition, but the price dropped to over 20,000 yuan, taking two months to sell [1]. - Many delivery stations are changing owners frequently, with some even shutting down, indicating instability in the business model [1]. - Online platforms like Xianyu and Xiaohongshu show numerous listings for delivery station transfers, often labeled with "low price" and "urgent transfer" [3]. Group 2: Operational Challenges - The cost-effectiveness of running a delivery station is decreasing, with long working hours (typically 9 AM to 9 PM) and minimal time off, leading to operator fatigue [4][6]. - Operators report that the income generated is often "hard-earned money," with significant penalties for customer complaints, which can reach 200 yuan for repeated issues [6][10]. - After deducting costs, some operators only make 5,000 to 6,000 yuan per month, leading to comparisons with less stressful jobs like security work [6]. Group 3: Market Dynamics - The average price per delivery has significantly decreased from 28.55 yuan in 2007 to 7.62 yuan in 2025, contributing to reduced income for delivery stations [7]. - The average delivery fee has dropped from 1.5 yuan to 1 yuan or even 0.7 yuan, further squeezing the revenue of delivery stations [7]. - The number of delivery stations is increasing, with some neighborhoods having multiple stations, leading to oversupply in the market [9].
