for comgateway, they normally calculate the shipping charges based on weight or the package dimension? i had the viaddress shipped to me before and they calculated based on the dimension weight and the shipping fees were so expensive

QUOTE(reginabally @ Oct 28 2013, 05:41 PM) No matter ComGateway or Viadress, all shipping companies uses two ways to calculate your shipping fees: actual weight or volumetric weight. so based on what you say, looks like comgateway is a much better option than viaddress? how's your opinion on this?Take mine as example, I shipped my son's toy (a large garbage bin truck) back to Malaysia. The actual weight of the toy is roughly 3.5kg, but the size of the carton is so big that the volumetric weight is 14kg. So the shipping fee will be charged based on 14kg, not 3.5kg. Luckily ComGateway offers me a repack service that they helped to decrease the volumetric weight to 4kg. Hope this explains. |

QUOTE(reginabally @ Oct 28 2013, 07:37 PM) I never use Viaddress before so I cannot comment more. But does Viaddres offer you a repack service? they do offer repack service. but they seem to choose the largest box to repack all my stuff, causing the shipping fees sky high |
