hi bros,
now use CGw better???
tks
i haven't used Borderlinx in ages ... but dun think i in a hurry to use them again
vPost, can forget liao ... takes ages ... worst thing is delivery in SG ! tracking if any is slow ... and you dun have the option of those courier service companies or arranging what time u want items delivered (Speedpost/SingPost)
iParcel ... this one mentioned bcos Amazon direct shipping to SG (if your items eligible, most likely will be the courier used by Amazon cos cheapest)
upon arrival in SG ... will usually be handed over to Speedpost (SingPost) for local delivery ... same headache as vPost
CGW ... never looked back since i started using them earlier this year
have shipped more items and packages back with them, than all the previous years by vpost, Borderlinx combined lol
i dun really judge them by their shipping $ ... more for their efficiency.
I opt for express shipping (for the few bucks more) cos faster ... sometimes receive items within 4 days of shipping from US.
also paying for package insurance is compulsory (a fraction of total cost) ... worth it
i recently lost an item and was able to claim 100% of the item's cost (US domestic shipping charge if any is not covered) ... and furthermore can cham siong ... when i got replacement for that item, i asked if they could waive the express shipping for that item alone back to SG ... they readily obliged.
also some merchants in US never write my CGW customer code properly ... if vPost, most likely i will have to request a trace ... but CGW has come thru most times without alerting me ... they just send email to ask me to confirm if indeed mine ...
bottomline, it's up to each individual and which one u comfortable with ...
cheers
