Ordering from US

[ainge88]

kami rin eh. papdala lola and tita ko ng box dito kaso from Canada sa January, kaso since may port congestion pa, baka hindi umabot sa panganganak ko. andun pa naman yung bulk ng swaddles ng A&A huhuhu

[vain_kixie]

Mayor of Manila's fault. Hay nako talaga grrrr! Cheapest pala ang Aden and anais sa Australia. Buti nalang uuwi tita ni hubby, i bought some stuff for my baby but i will go bug some organic baby food and bowls kasi mag 6 months na siya.

[ainge88]

Ay really? too bad! walang uuwi from Australia hehe hindi ko rin nacompare yung sa Canada vs US na prices.

pwede kaya yung box via air? i have no idea kasi haha gusto ko lang andito na yung gma swaddles ko byt the time i give birth. huhuhu 4 years ago when my son was born, they were our life saver.

[preggygielian]

Sis if you want air cargo...i recommend myus.com :-) ako na-aaddict na kakacheck ng status ng FedEx ko..hehe almost 90lbs yung package! Can't wait to receive it!

[_AiaH_]

^ sis sa HK ba shipping address nung myus mo? worried kasi ako kung yun kunin ko may tax pa kaya pagdating here sa philippines

[preggygielian]

Yes sis..sa hk yung shipping address ko...you're right walang tax dito. Di ko pa natry yung magpadala sa pinas. Ang damu naman kasing arte ng customs saatin sa Pinas eh :-(

[vain_kixie]

If it will pass through fedex, ems, dhl etc forget about it, you will be taxed bigtime. Sa johnny air sis you'll get the item in 2 weeks time and the quote already includes taxes and freight charges.

[ainge88]

so sad naman, Johnny Air kasi sa US lang. Canada yung padala ng lola ko

[bagaholic_chewy]

Naku, andami ko packages sa Johnny Air. Me nakarating na dalawa, me for pick-up ako na isa, me parating pa na 8 or 9. Dapat kasi papa-box ko sa Tita ko para one-time na lang along with other stuff na galing sa kanya. Kaya lang, di ko sure ang status ng port congestion so pinadiretso ko na sa JAC. Baka naman kasi di na magamit ng anak ko yung mga binili ko by the time na makarating sa akin kung ipapa-box ko.

[_AiaH_]

^ sis via air or yung cargo ng JAC?

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ via air, sis.

[marchbaby]

Sis bagaholic_chewy, what items did you order? I'm thinking kasi which items will be sulit for the price of air freight. Missing those days when boxes sent via sea  arrive in just a month.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ mostly clothes. Some shoes. Some toys. Personalozed Christmas ornaments. Etc, etc. The not-so-bulky stuff kasi baka malagot ako sa volume weight. Haha.

[Adam1025]

^sis ang johnny air ba parang pobox din except sa air cargo sya?

[tiggerlily]

^not sure if they consolidate sis. May specific location yata and specific person to contact para maconsolidate. Otherwise, paisa isa sya. And because air cargo, weight ang sukatan at hindi volume.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^^ di ko pa nata-try POBox so di ko ma-compare. I think Johnny Air has stopped consolidating na. But if you have several packages in the same flight, you only pay the $5 handling fee once, hindi na per package.

Weight is computed either actual weight in pounds or volume weight, whichever is higher. So if nakalagay sa malaking box yung package mo, kahit 2lbs lang actual weight nyan, you'll have to pay higher kasi sa volume weight ibe-base.

Hello mga mommies!

Interested din ako mag order sa mga US sites ng baby items. Kaso pano o ba mag order kahit nandito ako sa Philippines? Nag woworry kasi ako na baka hindi ideliver straight sa bahay baka sa local post office ipadala tapos kelangan ko pa bayaran yung tax dun eh dami ko nababalitaan na mas nagmamahal dahil sa patong nila.


Thanks!

[ainge88]

I just ordered from Carter's yesterday, naka abot pa ako dun sa doorbuster sale nila! Yay! super happy! Was worried they won't take Ph credit cards but na ship naman yung items so I guess okay na hehe They needed kasi nung telephone na same with the telephone sa credit card, I just gave them our landline number with country code and area code hehe

@arragalang hi sis, back read ka, some of other sisters here nagpapaship via JohnnyAir kasi mahal yung shipping pag mabigat/ bulky yung item.

[Sey_mendez]

Thanks sa mga suggestions Sis! Napakadali na pala mag order ngayon sa US dahil sa dami ng magandang service gaya ng Shipping Cart

[bluish_mommy]

My PoBox is on its way na hopefully next wk dumating na, this was the first time na ginawa ko ito. I've read about Shipping Cart nga, ma try nga yan next time hehe.
