hello! i was searching for a group to share shipping fees from online shops when i couldnt find any, and thought to myself, why not simply create one? Personally i wouldnt be buying clothes anytime soon ( i spent a ton on riverisland recently) but i was thinking of the future *-* Anyone interested in joining this group? Because shipping fees can get pretty expensive, and when maybe 3 or more people order at the same time, and share the shipping fees, it would probably only be $5 sgd per person if you buy from Riverisland! ( LOL yeah thats my favorite site) Not just restricted to that site though. So anyone interested? Unisex thread lol

You are forgetting other misc tangible and intangible costs like GST, being played out, return headaches etc. Some are already doing it via the MOs here for some handling fees and profit.

In a group buy, i cannot imagine someone wanting to be a purchaser and bearing all the added risks. Trust me, i have known cases where people travel from one end of the island to the another only to have the buyer reject the item because of a loose thread that is not even the organizer's fault.

true.... well theres no taxes invovled (unless you hit over $400) but then again, its true about what you mentioned about being the purchaser having to take risks and stuff. Never really considered that :c is there really no way to save on the shipping fees? :c
