yeah im using alfasent, althought there are several company offer similiar things like vpostasia.

however please stay away from vpostasia, they charged me RM 1k for TV and 1 xbox game from UK to malaysia. it's 40' LCD TV. never expected that

Isn't vpostasia, the parent company of vshub?
Am I having this thought because vshub is copying vpost? Website layouts are very similar, last time. rolleyes.gif

A very angry vsHub victim here! I bought an item from Amazon on the 14th, and until today it still hasn't even passed the 'clearing invoice' stage! Is there anything I can do? I bought a 70 USD item some more. This is very very bad.

Any recommendations on what I can do, girls?
*
Hm, try emailing them?
But expect a very, very slow response.. Maybe you should email many times.
Threaten them a bit.

Seriously, they never change, aren't they? doh.gif

Been advising people to stay away from vsHub since last year. Guess they're still the same doh.gif

Same here.. And yet they are still being widely promoted at local blogs.
Do they give them some kind of reward?

AVOID VSHUB AT ALL COST EVERYONE!

Yeah? Never try, but I've read comments, negative ones before sweat.gif
CGW is the best.

Wanna buy something this week, hehe..

hey currently am using CGW, the service is good! Email Support reply within 1-2 days.

VIADDRESS close down my account! omg! i try to ordered 1 cable...that one oso they makan habis...luckily not cost much. I had check the shipment and indeed it already arrived in the warehouse in US.
I had issued 1 question in helpdesk but after 1 week still no reply.

PLEASE DO NOT USE VIADDRESS.

anyone of you kena ?
*
Not kena like yours, but their service sucks. Late replies.. Have to wait very long, and the shipping cost is expensive.
I only use CGW after VSHub and Viaddress.

Have you received your cable or your account is closed before you received it?

nope....i didnt get my cable at all. Well u are right, they close my account before i receive the cable. I'm sure the item already reach their warehouse. Using USPS Tracking system.

btw, i'm using CGW to deliver soemthing really really expensive...omg..i'm veri worried actually.
*
Really? Better force them regarding this. It's a pain knowing that the item arrived, but we have no control or replies over it.
I experienced bad times with VSHub before.

So far with CGW, have no problems occur.
I bought clothings most of the time. Below RM400. icon_rolleyes.gif What you bought with CGW?
Electronic stuff?

Anyone uses Borderlinx here ? I just bought something from a USA website and they will ship to Borderlinx soon. However, it seems that Borderlinx website is down since midnight. It this common ? I am a newbie to this kind of thing  biggrin.gif

Never try Broderlinx, so I can't be much of help.
Try CGW (comgateway), they are offering reasonable rates =)

QUOTE(StrawberryGirL @ Mar 2 2011, 05:39 PM)
hmm.. bordelinx dont have concierge service right ?

CGW has it. Usually I use concierge, but last purchase from F21, I used my CC and it works.
So, no more 7% extra concierge fee.

QUOTE(ohmycoach @ Mar 9 2011, 12:51 PM)
I must say this is quite a good thread. Lots of useful info around.
Thought of using via address at first but after reading the whole thread i think i'll go for HSG

I got questions about HSG. What courier service their using?
And what if barang kene tahan kastam, so how should we pay the tax.
They'll pay first for us or what?  icon_question.gif

Thanks guys  smile.gif
*
It is.. TS might want to consider changing the topic title to Forwarding Company =)

HSG? They are CGW right? Paying by Paypal?
HSG and CGW are using the same courier, DHL. If let say your parcel kena tahan, they will inform you.
If you are willing to pay, only then they send thee item to you with the tax, invoice.

You'll pay to the courier guy.

Anyone have any issues with HSG recently? Order something from Amazon, it arrived in HSG on Monday, till today their system still doesn't show it. Their live chat staff keep telling me to wait. 5 business days is a little too long isn't it?

I waited for 2 days after the parcel arrived at the suite. Nothing to worry, they are trying to match the invoice I suppose.

i got my latest shipment out yesterday, lucky is DHL cause got 2 fragile and bulky stuff in the package..
lucky not fedex again otherwise CGW will get scolded again by me  vmad.gif

Regarding the cancellation order last few days ago , they told me already successful purchase and ready to be shipped out by merchant, cannot cancel anymore and they want me to paid the return fees (USD10) i ignore them about this issue. I told their customer service, this is their fault for not replying my email earlier of my cancellation. they argue back that i did not used their auto cancellation on the website.  dang! if i can click on the cancellation that time and contact their live chat , i won't have to send them an email. I told them about this, but seems like that always the right and customer are always wrong  shakehead.gif
today, they return my email back and said "Please be advised we will return your packages to the merchant without any return fee for a one-time exceptional case" So now i wish i can get back my money back asap.
*
Whoa.. I really pity you girl.. SInce when CGW gives lousy service? cry.gif They used to be so great compared to Viaddress and VSHub.
If this is the case, then I have to look for a new forwarder. Ai..

Lynnzed, the Buy for Me is ok, they will charge 10% for regular account, 7% for Prime Gateway account. I tried before.
But you have to note in the form to ask them to place the order ASAP especially on Sale Items.
I haven't got taxed from CGW because I usually buy from 1 merchant (Forever21 wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif )

Aw.. I pity you. Hope CGW learnt that DHL is very reliable and cheap.
I hate Fedex, will deff got taxed when using them, ai.

QUOTE(Desert_Praise @ Nov 9 2011, 01:16 AM)
I used their service, it's just excellent and great. The staffs are helpful and willing to answer any enquiries you have. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

However, as compared to alfasent, forward2me does charge consolidation fee £6 per parcel. The consolidation fee would reduced to £2 per parcel if you have 6++ parcels.

I personally don't really like alfasent, as the shipping cost is charged based on the packages arrived at their warehouse. If the seller send a very big and bulky package, it will be charged accordingly. On the other hand, forward2me does help to reduce the chargeable shipping weight if possible. smile.gif

Thanks fo sharing. I read about a new site, bryonybuysuk.com.
She seemed legit, som bloggers recommended using her service. wink.gif

Oh, forgotten. I received promotional emails from CGW and VSHub (I marked VSHub as SPAM).
Both on same thing, regarding the promo for Coach and Kate Spade handbags. But CGW stated up to 60% discount while VSHub posted 40% discount.
Fishy VSHub doing their dirty job again? hmm.gif

So far, only CGW. I tried VSHub and Viaddress before but VSHub, stole my free gifts, not responsive to emails.
Viadress is also the same, not responsive and ship parcels by Fedex which is pricey.
