Hi all,

I'm new to this forwarding service, have read the comments so far, will like to ask some questions:

1. In Malaysia, we won't be tax if the shipping cost (per parcel) is lower than RM 500, what if my total checkout is above  RM 500, can CGW repack it into 2 different parcel when it reach the US add?
    Or I should separately submit two different orders so that I have 2 different parcel when it reach the US address (but for this, I will waste some $$ for the US ground shipping

2.  If I'm buying clothes which is under RM 500, will I be taxed by Malaysia custom? If yes, how many % will it be?

3.  We will only know the shipiing fees form the US address to malaysia after the packaging reach US add right? Can we rely on the shipment fees in the CGW website where the first 500g to Malaysia is RM 74.7? Just want to make sure the total shipment cost will not exceed MYR 500
Thanks for the help!! Im happy i found this thread.. biggrin.gif

newbie here, any updates?

I did checked out more than RM500 in a single parcel before. Including shipping is around RM600 with DHL shipping to Msia.
No tax luckily =)

My account has been upgraded to Premium after 3 consecutive shipments. So, with premium, my last parcel weighed at 2.5kg, CGW charged me RM116.
How cheap is that? laugh.gif

Hi solsekuin44, do you know which reliable forwarder company has the cheapest rate? Are you still using CGW?

CGW is the best! Trust me.

QUOTE(imrazak92 @ Mar 17 2012, 01:04 AM)
Will try out CGW or HopShopGo service soon

Good, you should do so..

April 1 2012:

ordered some toys from ebay totalling to RM1300++ (including domestic US-US shipping) and the shipping quote i got from VSHUB to send HALF of them (decided to split them into 2 packages to avoid duties) back to singapore is already RM1450. so go do your math.  whistling.gif

Added on April 2, 2012, 3:24 pmUPDATE (2 April 2012):

You no longer have to worry about expensive shipping fees when you shop in different shops.
Our delivery services are 60% cheaper than main couriers like Fedex or DHL and 40% cheaper than postal services abroad. That’s half the shipping fees saved!


...oh yes, blatantly advertised on Vshub's website...but hey here's the reality:

an online store offered to ship my items directly to singapore for less than USD50, but thinking of consolidating them with some other items using vshub to reduce shipping, i told the store to ship them to vshub instead. well guess what,  vshub is now charging me SGD109 solely for the shipping of the exact same items.  i thought Vshub are in the business of consolidating items for customers and thus reducing the shipping, and NOT increasing it? no?  hmm.gif Oh they dont even show how they obtained the volumetric weight figure used to calculate the shipping.

.. and that is just a small part of my stuff at their US warehouse now.. so imagine having all of them shipped.. RM3k perhaps?

so yes im giving up the stuff i have with them, around RM1.5k's worth of stuff i reckon, rather than paying that unjustified shipping fee.

guys, AVOID vshub like the plague!

by the way, i noticed that they kept deleting those negative comments on their FB's wall, while keeping the positive ones.. haha  notworthy.gif

OMG, I feel you bro.. I used to have real bad experience with them too. Check out my posts in this thread.
AVOID VSHUB! LIARS.

Hi there , I'm planning to buy a bulk of items ( clothings) 10 above from USA , do you think HSG & CGW are now still reliable after so long? And for europe you still recommend Alfasend? What about JAPAN? THanks!


Added on August 1, 2012, 12:39 amI just found a personal shopper/ forwarding company that is based in UK , they do send items to Malaysia.
http://skypax.com/Home

Can someone do some research on this company? I'm still new I do not know what to look for. I normally buy clothings and 5 pairs and above every time. Please tell me about the pricing and reliability, and able to under-declare and consolidate or not. THANSK!!!

Hi, I ordered one guitar from US whick cost me usd100.. I'm using vshub service for the first time.. They charged me rm1800 for the shipping cost due to my volumetric weight is~45kg.. However actual weight is 7kg..

I already request for photo of the package for verification but i still think that shipping cost is still not feasible.. Plan to just ignore the item there..any advise guys?

You should have not use VSHub as discussed earlier..
But since it already happened, I guess you can try nego with VSHub to lower down the shipping fee.
They cheat a lot.

BTW, just to share.
I shipped my parcels last week using comgateway (CGW).
Shipping fee for 3.5kg is USD45.19 = RM142.93! Very cheap and affordable in my opinion. rclxms.gif

Hi, I need help. I want to buy something from a merchant in eBay. This merchant only accept PayPal & only ship to confirmed address in PayPal. I plan to use HSG service. Problem is, my PayPal account won't let me add a US address. What do I do?
*
Of course Paypal needs you to use legit billing address.
I paid using Paypal before, billing address is in Malaysia, shipped to US. No problem..
Can you show us the Ebay link? Maybe you get confused. smile.gif

I planning to buy 1 pair of shoes on ebay, the seller did not offer shipping to Malaysia but i have two option :

1. Ask seller ship the goods to my sister who study in US and she ship to me using USPS
2. Using this forwarding service.

Which one should i go for? And usually how much does its cost for pair of shoes.

Hi...

I've few boxes of personal items to ship from UK back to Malaysia (Penang). I'm considering using Pal Shipping (http://www.shippingtomalaysia.com/) or shipping2malaysia.com (http://shipping2malaysia.com/). However, I've never used the services before. Are the services reliable?

Please also suggest if you know other options which offer comparable price to both services mentioned above.

Many thanks.

21 lbs = 9.5 kg
With comgateway, regular account costs you:

First 0.5 kg = US$ 20.75
Every additional 0.5 kg = US$ 3.25

Total for your parcel, shipped with DHL might be:

(1x20.75) + (18x3,25) = USD 79.25
