U seem like someone who work in Amazon.... Haaa... :good: Good info... Amazon splits up the order due to various reasons. 1) items are located at various locations Suddenly it hit me. Ya hor, Amazon has not only 1 warehouse... Stupid me....

I did try a few other sites, but I always come back to Amazon. Reasons are 1) I like Amazon layout and interface 2) Amazon's price is lower or equal. Even if the cost is slightly more ex, the free shipping will make it worthwhile. 3) I like to read the reviews on Amazon. They are more truthful and U can catch a lot of tips there. 4) Amazon stock up and act as seller for the popular items. And then they sometimes offer special discount and also ship direct to Singapore. 5) I love they have this wishlist and sometimes prices will drop.. :dribble: 6) Their customer service is top notch. i.e. they send a humility monitor by DHL when I feedback that I received a crack one. I still have not encounter any other site that have all of the above. Or maybe I have not search hard enough. :dunno: If you all do have any site u like, pls share with me. Thanks.. :yamseng: p.s. I do not own any shares of Amazon. :D

There are people still not clear on direct shipping and 3rd party shipping. Direct shipping: Amazon ship direct to Singapore. 3rd party shipping. Amazon do not ship direct to Singapore. Only in USA. So we need 3rd party courier to help us ship from USA to Singapore. There is also Amazon seller and 3rd party seller. Amazon seller: Amazon stock the items and sell to us directly. 3rd party seller: Other sellers sell the product. It will be wise to buy from Amazon because 1) Things are normally cheaper than 3rd party seller 2) Amazon provide free shipping if the order is more than US$25 (not all the time) 3) Amazon provide direct shipping to Singapore at a much cheaper rate compare to 3rd party seller. A good example of direct shipping will be the below products. Notice that Amazon is also the seller. The total valve of the below items is US$127. Shipping direct to Singapore is US$48. And Amazon break up the below order into 3 shipment. 2 DHL and 1 iparcel. I still don't understand why they do that. They can easily ship all the items together using iparcel and we can't do anything because I had already select "Group the items to save cost" :dunno: Please let us know if any of you got any questions. Me, Ongcs and a few other people are all very willing to help. We love to POISON people :sport-smiley-004:

Ya. Put in wishlist first.. :notti: Tampines so far away....

Time for a 2nd rack :sport-smiley-004: But wa lau... I think u need to insure your Bluray... haa... :jawdrop:

Waaa... U spent all on capsules.. haa.. No wonder u need rack. I only got 5 boxes. Give the other 5 to friends. Buy a stand for 40 capsules then keep the rest of the boxes. More neat Where is SQFT?

Oh man... u got Blum servo :jawdrop: :bow: :bow: Must visit your place to play with it.. haa... :dribble:

In the long run is worth it bro... Now I regret I never install air-con in my living room. Whenever guests come to my place, they always comment that the living room is a bit hot... sigh.... :furious: Btw, u recieved my msg in FB?

Seem like iparcel is getting more efficient. Only a few days after DHL. OXO Good Grips 12-Inch Tongs with Silicone Heads OXO Good Grips 12-Inch Stainless-Steel Locking Tongs Nalgene Wide Mouth Cantene OXO Good Grips Large Silicone Drying Mat VCAN V531 Cruiser Half Helmet (Solid Gloss Black, Large)

It wont come on weekend. Just like yr normal mail lor. Speaking of iparcel. Mine just arrived in office... :sport-smiley-004: :sport-smiley-004: So I guess u should be getting soon...

Hi, 1st time I saw your blog... Very nice place u got there.... :good: Love the hanging lights and the stone walkway.... very nice... :bow:

All expensive stuff ah..... :dribble:

Wow.. some more... U got to wait. iparcel is using Singpost... a least a few days... be patient

Wow!! Nice.... :dribble: I don't mind getting one container from you if its too big. U are lucky, normally for big shipment liks this, they will use iparcel. Mine is still somewhere...

Just tell him you are saving space by arranging all the capsules together. It is my wife who is nagging me to buy a capsules holder. I'm happy leaving the boxes beside the Nespresso... :bleah: Scanpan holder? Is that the one with a lot of sticks in a slim rectangular round rubber surface finish and angled at the top? Quite ex right... :dribble:

So I have short list some capsules holder. Only Swissmar. :sport-smiley-004: I like simplicity. 1st choice. Simply. Take up very small space. Swissmar Capstore Vista Storage Rack for 40 Nespresso Coffee Capsules This one is good for those who has lesser capsules. Swissmar 80012 Cap store Vista 20 for Nespresso Coffee Capsules Wall mounted. This will be a good choice if I had fixed a place for my nespresso. But I am still deciding where to place it so I better not risk by wall mounting the holder. Swissmar Mountable Storage Unit for Nespresso Coffee Capsules I just saw this today and kind of love it. It can be stick either with magnet or sticker. So I can stick this on my fridge. Cool hor... :dribble: Swissmar 80019 CAPstore Wave 10 Capsule Storage Unit for Nespresso

Tangs should be selling Brabantia stands. Taka also.

I like Brabantia 418709 Coffee Capsule Dispenser for Nespresso too when I saw it at Tangs/Taka. But I got no use for the cup at the top. At first I think of putting coffee spoon. But then it will attract dust cos I don't use the coffee machine everyday. So most probably I will still get a Swissmar for the simplicity. I notice Brabantia don't ship direct. So is it cheaper once u factor in the 3rd party cost?

Yep, I saw some at Howard too. But the price is not cheap. Another thing, I notice the quality of house brand from Howard is not good. Some of the metal hook had sharp corners and the chrome plating is not good. So make sure to check the things u buying from Howard. Thanks. I just check. Dolce gusto capsules are bigger than nespresso. So typing nespresso capsules stand is safer. The stands are similar to swissmar stand except they are OEM. And the prices not really cheap. I probably buying from Amazon. Q0010 got really a lot of OEM stuff!!

Thanks. I just got my source last night too.. :notti: Not buying milk frother. I drink my coffee black. Unless I need to entertain guest in the future.. see how la..

Cool. I got the off white U model.

Hi, anyone into Nespresso? I got one from my wife's friend during housewarming and now I'm looking for stands for the capsules. I think I saw this somewhere in the shopping centre but forgot how much. Seem very well like in Amazon. Anyone got other stands to recommend?

Wow.. this is special.... 1st time see this... cool...

Wa.. Your Kindle so chio... Amazon still don't allow direct shipment here. Guess I had to use HSG. Btw, I google and notice that we need to create a separate amazon account with USA address to buy books from Amazon. If not they will suspend your account if you use the Singapore address amazon. Is it? Or u got your own source? :notti:

That's what I heard too. Kindle got to ship by 3rd party right? Amazon don't ship direct. Any accessories to go with it?
