There's always borderline, com gateway, etc... No?!?!

I'm aware of HSG, Borderlinx etc way back before Amazon ships directly to SG. To use them, got to factor the shipping fees from US address to SG to make sense. I always prefer item ships directly to SG unless exotic enough to use US forwarders for such.

Hi! I saw you bought quite abut if stuff from Amazon and like to ask your advise on shipping their dustbins to sg. Amazon doesn't ship their dustbins to sg and I think you use hopshopgo? How do I estimate their shipping cost before buying? Thank you!

Use the product measurements as indicative to estimate, HSG does provide shipping fees calculator, use that to estimate. Do note that shipment is in volumetric calculation.

Again, I will not ship dustbins because they are bulky in nature!

Looking for good contractors? Click here for your request

Hi,

Would like to check with everyone here if you have/had ever shipped a big bulky item from USA to SIN via SEA (not AIR) freight.

If yes, what is the experience like? Which forwarder company did you use?

Many thanks to feedback if any. :-)

I didnt realise the FOC global shipping to Singapore has their restrictions,below my chat transcript with the CSO.

05:43 AM PST Sriram(Amazon): The dimension restriction for FREE AmazonGlobal Saver is 18 in x 14in x 8in (L x B x H). If any of the dimensions of an item are greater than this, the order won’t be eligible

05:55 AM PST Sriram(Amazon):

OXO 10-Piece Good Grips Pop Containers Set

simplehuman Adjustable Shower Caddy, Stainless Steel and Anodized Aluminum
05:56 AM PST Sriram(Amazon): And Swissmar CAPstore Porto 18 for Dolce Gusto Capsules
I'm sorry free shipping will only apply for qualifying items.

Any other way to go around these?Cause i see some of the forumners bought the OXO and CAPstore before

It is the simplehuman Adjustable Shower Caddy. Way too big.

Remove that and I think it should be fine. The other 2 items should be fine.

Yo. Anyone using iHerb to buy supplements? I know a lot of people had already used it but I'm quite slow and only just shipped out my second purchase.

Anyway, I'm pleased with their products and shipping by Singpost is pretty fast! Faster than Amazon iparcel.. haaa :bleah:

And do you know SingPost shipping is now a flat $4.00 for orders up to 14 pounds or 6350 grams!! :jammin: :jammin: :jammin:
In addition, all orders over $40.00 will receive a minimum 5% discount after signing in. :good: :good: :good:
