kung paisa-isang bili lang sa US, and you're not in a hurry, i recommend myshoppingbox.

5usd lang minimum charge nila per pound (minimum 1 lb). 2 weeks delivery time.

san kaya nakakabili ng MK and tory burch bags na mura? san kaya galing yung mga binebenta sa Ebay na mura?

[izzie7]

I want to try asos kaso pano ba computation ng manila post office? Like kung mga 20pounds worth lang naman at 2 items lang

Mahal din ng subscription fee ng myshopping box, pwede kaya mag sign up sa gcash amex tapos yung ph based card yung gamit pero sa myshopping box papadala since may gcash amex account?

^ re Asos, based on my experience, if nasa below £30, wala na binayaran except for the php50. Pag medyo malaki amount, magtantya ka roughly 30%-50% nung cost ng package mo. Kaya ginagawa ko, 1-2 items lang per package, para mababa ang value. Free shipping naman ang asos e.

U.S has outlets so mura dun pero pag sobrang mura, fake na yun.

Sis manila yan ah, kasi yung sa friend ko less than 2000 lang yung value tapos mga 800+ na binayaran nya, like 1300 na magazine tapos 350 na shipping. Ewan ko lang kung saan na post office. Below 30 naman yung gusto ko since sale. Thanks sis

Any members of coachfactory here? I signed up 2 weeks ago and still don't have any invites
gusto ko sana ihabol sa ipapa-ship ko this coming august, mukhang wala pa ko mareceive this month...

[fibia]

dunno if this is OT, anyone frequent amazon.com buyers here? have u availed of Amazon Prime membership? Sulit ba?


Parang mahal kasi for USD79 esp. im not from US naman, pero sulit sana yung free 2-day shipping nila. I use JAC so in less than 2 weeks andito na sa Pinas yung stuff ko

Now that my free trial of Amazon Prime has expired, nakakainip hintayin yung 5-8 day free shipping nila... ive tried it, inabot ng more than 2 weeks yung delivery

[glyzza026]

^never naman ako sis nakaencounter ng more than 2weeks sa amazon.depende din siguro talaga sa merchant.

[bagaholic_chewy]

Yup sis izzie7, Metro Manila ako, QC in particular.. Ganun nga yung taxes pag sa Post Office, ranging 30%-50%.. Kasama pa sa kwenta ng taxable amount yung shipping fees if meron.. Buti si ASOS e free shipping...

Sis kathwalks, wala kasi talaga fixed schedule na makakareceive ng invite sa coachfactory.. Me time na sunod-sunod. Me time naman na super-tagal interval.. Meron sila actually ongoing sale ngayon, me invite ako na-receive yesterday. Until Friday yata..

^never naman ako sis nakaencounter ng more than 2weeks sa amazon.depende din siguro talaga sa merchant.

What I meant was  2 weeks from amazon to Jac to pinas took them2 weeks, due to longer delivery by amazon. Pero before when I had prime, it took only a little over 1 week to deliver from amazon to jac to manila. For all thebitems I bought its all from amazon directly, no merchants.

Sige sis mag try ako mag order sa asos, isang item lang muna tingnan natin kung anong mangyayari hehe thanks sis.

[fibia]

Ive tried asos. I bought 1 dress and fancy earrings. I did not gt taxed. I picked up my items in qc post office. Nice ang asos, packaging is also good. Naka asos box.

[blueberry14]

ilang weeks bago dumarating yung order sa asos.com?

[megumiii]

Ordered a skater dress worth 36GBP (original price is 40GBP, plus 10% discount) from ASOS last Sunday. Paid via PayPal, then received a couple of e-mails from ASOS to expect delivery on or before August 5 (roughly 10 days excluding weekends). Can't wait to get my hands on it! Was planning to get one from the sale section but the dress is super gorgeous; I just couldn't resist!

To those who have bought from ASOS, how many days did it take for yours to arrive, and were there any delays? Regarding the sizing, is it accurate? Based on their size guide, I'm a UK 8. I'm just hoping that the dress would fit perfectly so there'd be no need for returns.

[bagaholic_chewy]

Re ASOS, since through post office, I usually allot 3-6 weeks lead time. Depends kung gano kasipag ang postman. Postman will usually leave a notice card sa mailing address, letting you know that there's a package waiting to be claimed sa post office.

On the day of claiming, just bring notice card and valid id. They'll locate the package on their masterlist, then you pay php50. Then wait for releasing and pray that you won't get taxed. Hehe.. Customs staff will usually open or check the contents of the package, and the value indicated. If they think it's taxable, they'll compute. If di ka nila feel i-tax, they'll release the package na.

On sizing, minsan depends sa brand.. me na-order na ako na medyo masikip. Meron namang i ordered one size smaller na nga (kasi nabasa ko, loose fit), pero maluwag pa din.. but generally, ok naman ang sizing. I kept the masikip/maluwag items na din kasi mahal shipping if ire-return ko pa. Pinamigay ko na lang.
