you can buy playing cards legally in Singapore, so... what's the problem? you don't have to gamble with cards. You can play normal games with cards. Like Hearts! (btw, are these bicycle cards?)
I just get the info from borderlinx in list of prohibited items or something like that. So I just wondering.

(Nope. not bicycle cards =:p)

Hi CGW,

I have registered a CGW for quite awhile now but have not made any packages to ship till now.

Package is arriving at CGW USA in early April, is there any one-time code for me?

Thanks!

Thats what i thought too. Out of my 4 packages under the same tracking no., 3 went to Ohio and 1 surprisingly end up at LA. Eventually, it came back to Ohio then onward to HK thereafter. Weird..

comgateway prime rewards expired. If I shipped via comgateway and payment using POSB Everyday get Free Express international shipping upgrade. Does that mean automatic upgraded to prime rewards? cos the prime rewards repack is US$3 instead of US$10. The shipping rate also cheaper than non prime rewards.

can advise me?

How can I contact CGW to expedite processing my package? Their online chat closed until Monday so I was wondering if I can have my package processed this weekend even though it just arrived at 9AM US time.

Question on Delivery Charge

Hello :)

I've ordered from the USA to SG via Comgateway, and now I'm tracking the package through DHL.

However, I read this on the Comgateway website under 'Taxes and Duties':

You will have to pay the DHL delivery agent for the relevant taxes and duties when they deliver your package to you.

For more information, please refer to your individual custom authority / government website to understand the import regulation and tax and duties requirements of your respective country.


But I thought I had paid all 'relevant taxes and duties' as seen from the Shipment Order Receipt they sent me a few days before, and they wrote:

Duty Prepaid:
There will not be any additional charges due upon delivery

And I read on another forum that you don't need to pay the postman ...

So do you need to pay the postman?

Tks!

Umm ... it does.

But then I've already paid the shipping cost that consists of:

International Shipping Charges
Fuel Surcharge
Import Clearance Service Fee [which I read somewhere was GST]
Mandatory Insurance


What I don't know is if I have to pay DHL for their courier services, because I've paid Comgateway for the above but I don't know if Comgateway will pay DHL for me.

Unable to complete purchase

Can someone help me ??
I tried to do a puchase from US under Vpost yesterday but but couldn't complete the order as I keep getting that msg "credit card is not charge, try again"

But after, I receive a call from my credit card co. informing me that the attempts that I had tried earlier has been reflected on their end. Only that the payment has not been accepted by the seller from US.

Thinking that it might be due to the fate that S'pore issued credit card is not accepted, I went on to tried on Comgateweay, using the "Buy for Me"option.
But again, almost to the end of completeing the purchase, I got the prompting again, "credit card has not been charged, try again".......

Has anyone encountered wat I am encountering, or any advise to how to complete any purchase from US that do not accept local CC......

It's USD1000.

But does that matter?

I've already paid for 7% GST at customs, and I don't know how Comgateway spilts the rest with DHL, or if they even split the cost.
