hi @prime_21378. kung san ka magpadala, sa kanila ka buy ng box. life you're using LBC, you buy the box there. same with BM Express. $10 ata pero deductible na yun sa cost of shipping. so kung $80 ang service, you only pay $70 pagpapick up mo na, just keep the receipt. hth.

hello po, buhayin ko lang po ulit itong thread na ito. I'm planning to have my other stuff shipped to Aus from Manila. Any suggestions or info that might help like freight forwarders companies, door to door services, etc, costs and travel time? I'm not in a hurry to have them shipped. Items to be shipped are electronics TV, sound system, collector's item statues, my special plates and kawali and sandok hehe.. Any inputs, suggestions are highly appreciated. TIA

For electrical Items I would sell them in AU or PH and buy new ones in other country. this will save problems from shipping damage or theft on the way and also with different electrical systems PH runs 60HZ and Au is 50Hz systems some items will be OK with different frequencies some may not. at least check if they will be OK before shipping the electrical items.
