Bus/Financial - Retail / The store did a send sale, instead of a regular sale.
English term or phrase: send sale
A send sale is merchandise and shipping fees paid by a customer who's not present in the store, so it will be shipped to their address. Sometimes it's done to pay fewer taxes on the sale, such as if the the merchandise of the sale is shipped to another state. Translations I saw are "vente livraison" or "transmission de vente" or the use of a verb, but it didn't sound like the most official way to translate it.
