NoCapWiki editorial explanation
1. What does it mean?
무배 shortens 무료 배송: delivery without a separate shipping charge to the buyer under the stated offer. It appears in store promotions and secondhand-sale descriptions. 'Free shipping' is the natural English equivalent; the word is about delivery charges, not about getting the item itself for free.
Also written or said as 무료 배송, 무료배송, free shipping
2. The nuance
Read any condition attached to it. '두 개 이상 무배' makes the offer conditional on buying at least two items, while '반택 무배' specifies the delivery method as well. Compare 택포, a price quoted with shipping included: both can mean no extra shipping payment, but 무배 frames that as an offer and 택포 describes the quoted total. Neither word, by itself, guarantees worldwide delivery or removes separate import charges. Do not assume an international forwarding service follows a domestic seller's offer.
3. Examples
“이번 주에는 두 개 이상 사면 무배래.”
They say shipping is free this week if you buy at least two.
“무배라고 적혀 있는데 해외 배송도 해당되는지는 모르겠어.”
It says free shipping, but I don't know whether that includes international delivery.
