  Thank you! That’s really helpful. Buti na lang I didn’t place my order agad. The ereader doesn’t have LTE, wifi lang, but the exact cost is 9.3k for priority (8k+ if expedited). So yeah, baka ma-hold nga.
  
  And here I thought online shopping is very convenient now basta less than 10k. :(
  
  Okay! I’ll check with SC. Hopefully I can get it in less than 10 days (excited lang) without issues. Thanks again!

  gano ba katagal mag update yung "Preparing for shipment" sa SC sea shipping? September 26 pa and d pa nag babago :/

• aaafast on 07 Oct 19 @ 10:23 AM #

  matagal talaga pag sea. 2-3 weeks sa experience ko.

• tochivelez on 07 Oct 19 @ 12:26 PM #

  mostly mag update yan kapag napuno na yung container nila, tapos next update kapag malapit na barko sa pinas

• gnobhernz on 07 Oct 19 @ 11:26 PM #

  Nordstrom Rack
  Haven't tried yet, pero baka pwede workaround yung e-giftcard from Amazon. Next problem is baka hindi nagshi-ship sa known forwarder addresses.

  
  
  Yes, yun din naisip kong workaround pero not worth the hassle.
  Plan ko bili nordstrom gift card sa Amazon -> ShippingCart -> Gamitin sa account pagdating. Inaccept naman yung address, problem lang talaga sa CC. Pwede rin sana Paypal na may funds, pero di kasi makapagload ng Paypal from Philippine-based account.
  
  Sa Nordstrom naman, di inaaccept yung paggawa ko ng account since need ng landline. Yung prinovide ni Shippingcart sakin eh nagamit na raw kaya di pwedeng gamitin. Sad. ;/

  Ok ba yong USA direct PHL
  
  Nakita ko lang nag ads sa fb.
  5.5 pero lbs minimum 2 lbs plus 5usd
  Processing fee? May hidden charge kaya?
  
  Yong 8lbs ko kasi sa shipping cart umaabot ng 67usd..
  
  Ano pang magandang alternative sa shipping cart guys?
  Ok lang kahit kasing bagal or kasing bilis lang ng shipping cart

• CrazyKid on 15 Oct 19 @ 10:28 AM #

  im looking for alternatives as well. Tumataas na rates ng mga forwarding services recently.. may alam ba kayo na fb group or ig accounts na nagpapasabay?

• vatch3173 on 16 Oct 19 @ 09:19 AM #

  @nraek07 covered na yan sa bayad mo sa shippingcart ang lahat ng customs fee. Bayaran mo nalang is ang item sa store at ang shippingcart fee.

• kramelo on 16 Oct 19 @ 08:53 PM #

  any recommended forwarder na okay ang rates and nagcoconsolidate ng items?
  
  maliliit lang naman ipapadala ko sana..
  
  Thanks!

• jayvee1323 on 16 Oct 19 @ 09:11 PM #

  ^So far the best pa din talaga shippingcart kasi wala ka nang babayaran sa customs direct na sayo. May mga na try akong iba hussle masyado like DHL ang shipping nila or Fedex may tax pa at mahal ang shipping fee.

• stiko on 17 Oct 19 @ 11:53 PM #

  Maganda lang sa SC door to door pero kung mas mura at mas mabilis sa Johnny Air pa rin.
  
  Dito sure ako mura na at magcconsolidate pa sila ng libre. 2 weeks waiting time lang din pala sila sa warehouse. May CA at NY pa kaya covered and West at East coast. Tues. at Fri. din shipping days nila.

• sebs0514 on 22 Oct 19 @ 09:55 PM #

  hi, planning to buy from amazon worth 22k+ 1600 shipping, door to door ba yun ? may babayaran pa ako pagdating ng parcel?

• tochivelez on 22 Oct 19 @ 09:58 PM #

  @sebs0514
  wala na po, kung ano lang amount kay SC yun na yun

• thevoid on 24 Oct 19 @ 02:32 AM #

  Ano mas mahal ang bayad(taxes+shipping fees etc), via AmazonGlobal Shipping o Shippingcart?

• vatch3173 on 24 Oct 19 @ 05:54 AM #

  ^shippingcart is cheaper and avoids the hassle of customs. In my experience.

• heille1221 on 24 Oct 19 @ 06:08 AM #

  Ano mas mahal ang bayad(taxes+shipping fees etc), via AmazonGlobal Shipping o Shippingcart?

  
  If less than 10k, pwedeng mas cheaper via amazon. if more than 10k cheaper via SC.
  Also take note that some items in amazon are priced higher if shipped directly to PH.

• thevoid on 24 Oct 19 @ 06:16 AM #

  ^ thanks sa reply. tama ba intindi ko, pag AmazonGlobal Shipping, door to door ito at wala na rin babayaran? o dadaan pa sa post office?

• robotik on 26 Oct 19 @ 12:07 AM #

  How's Johnny Air compared to Shipping Cart? in terms of lead time and cost? Ang mahal na kase ng Shipping Cart.

• stiko on 26 Oct 19 @ 01:00 AM #

  @robotik
  
  Gaano kamahal ang SC? Bigay ka ng figures para masabi ko din yun counterpart.
  
  Lead time? 4-5 business days upon shipping out. Twice a week ang shipout. Cost? Mas mura dahil sa consolidation. PERO huwag ka na magconsolidate kung "volatile" ang item kasi mahirap na sa mishandling. Mahalaga sa item na pinapadala ko dito yun box, may tama dumating yun iba ko na box. Kung hindi naman yan "boxed" item okay ang Johnny Air.

• marky2115 on 27 Oct 19 @ 09:27 AM #

  Hi guys. Need help lang about buying from Amazon thru shippingcart. First time kasi if ever. I might buy a Dell XPS 15 laptop mukhang cheaper to buy from amazon. The item is $1400.
  
  For 7.8 lbs and dimensions of 9.3 x 14.1 x 0.7 inches, estimate sa SC kapag sea cargo is $64.22 + $10 handling fee + 4% ng declared value ng item. So $1,530.22. Tama ba intindi ko na ganito ang magiging total cost? Yung declared dimensions ba sa amazon actual item lang or pati yung box ng Dell?

• venerzky on 29 Oct 19 @ 06:56 PM #

  Pwede kaya sa SC 'to?

  nag try ako Amazon Global Expited Shipping, sana hindi ipa ikot ikot order ko, hahahaha!

  Around 1-2 weeks shipping time. For the months of November-January, it might take 3 or more weeks just like SC. Shipping cost is slightly cheaper than SC if your parcel is less than 8lbs.
