Subscribing to the new thread!

I gave up online shopping for Lent (both local and US) so now na lang ulit ako namili. All my Amazon purchases have shipped and na-separate into 6 packages in total - most were already in JAC NJ/NY. Waiting for them na makarating dito.

i'm on my fourth JAC package, out for delivery today. Si Trixie ang coordinator ko. I had to ask her pa to inform me kapag may package na out for delivery na kasi the past three packages ko gulatan dumating, i don't keep cash sa bahay so i had to write checks. the small boxes ~1700 ang charge. One Kate Spade medium harmony ~3500 ang charge sakin. Ngayon naman I tried shipping electronics, according to the shop where i got it from it was 9.5lbs pero ang charge sakin ng JAC is ~5100. Not bad na din..

Any idea if Johnny Air is available in China? Want to buy something there kasi.  I tried fedex once, it cost me a lot

[cupkaye]

Yay just got an email that my package is here na 
Bought some stuff from Sephora last week, April 15 to be exact. it reached their NY branch on the 17th
and now here in PH, 22. Not bad 

Not sure what the total weight of the package is but charge is P1,162 for some lipsticks/blush and samples. hmmm mejo mahal compared to my charge last yr na P874  -baby G watch.
Oh well..

^ that's 3lbs, i think.

Got 5 packages from Megamall yday. Buti na lang kahit nahati-hati sa shipping e sabay sila napadala dito, nakatipid din ako ng $20 sa handling fee. about 1-3 days ang pagitan ng delivery sa US address ang mga yun. sayang me naiwan pang isa, di na nakaabot sa 1st batch. Baka next week dumating yung isa.

[honeybunny]

can i use johnny air if i have a friend na nasa US and may ipapadala sa pinas?  also, how about sending packages to someone in US from pinas? can i use this too?

[mama squeak!]

^Yes you can. That's what I do actually. I have all my items sent to my sister or brother then they consolidate everything para isang box na lang. They then send the package to JAC under my name. As to sending from here to the US, pwede rin. Hindi ko na lang tinandaan how much kasi namahalan ako sobra.

[honeybunny]

^do u think it is cheaper Kung ipadala ko na lang via FedEx or DHL yung package from Ph to U.S.? Thanks

[fibia]

Kamusta ang jac nowadays? Whats this 25$ consolidation fee na nabasa ko sa Sfo Office nila? im confused, havent used SFO for more than a yr na rin

so kung marami kang shipment pero same day or 2 days apart dumating, at pasok sa cutoff, they will charge u 25$consolidation fee? 

[xadie28]

Does anyone tried not to pick up their parcel due to over priced shipping fee?

yung parcel ko kasi over over price, almost 3x nung value nung item ko yung shipping fee nya. 

[fibia]

they can negotiate the shipping fee from my experience. not over the phone tho. U have to go pickup the parcel then talk to the  handling person. nowadays im only using jac for high value items. Otherwise i use  other airshipping companies Na lang.

[evilwoman]

^ano pang airshipping companies ang natry mo sis?

[fibia]

Aside from Jac, theres myecasa and lbc shipping cart. ive tried both, way cheaper than JAC and service is topnotch. Jac is still option is shipping high value goods like watches, luxury bags and  expensive electronics w/ lithium batteries. 

[kimebies]

JAC is very reliable naman but my only problem is that they do not consolidate. Bought 2 wake boards last week and they arrived a week apart. Could have saved half the shipping fee sana kung sabay lang sila dumating. But anyway, they revise naman ng shipping charge (less for about 25%) sa regular customers when you ask.

[katniss]

Question: kapag ba air cargo dumadaan pa sa BOC? Unlike balikbayan boxes? Sa mga nagpaJAC na dito, di naman sya dumadaan sa customs? Thank you!

[dulcette]

^ hindi na.

[mama squeak!]

^All incoming shipments be it air or sea freight dumadaan sa customs.

[burberi]

May extra charge ba ang JAC pag magpapadala ng luxury items like shoes/bags? Thanks!

[minnie99]

I'm so interested in availing of their service. Initially, I just really wanted clothes (does anyone know on average how much ichacharge ng JAC for clothes? Based on experience).

But since I might jump into the bandwagon, iniisip ko na rin umorder ng Stan Smith... Though malamang mahal ang ichacharge sakin for this dahil by volume ang calculation nito di ba? Anyone who has shipped Adidas shoes through JAC?

Hoping someone could help. Thinking kasi of this vs. LBC, tapos compounded pa ng fact na malapit na mag-Christmas season...
