What I know, some will do like this:
Buyer pay the amount including the postage (US to Malaysia and local postage)
Agent will buy it and keep until certain time... normally end of the month. Most item sent to US address will be free shipping.
Agent will keep all item from a few buyer and by end of the month, agent will sent all item in one package to his/her house at Malaysia. This to cut shipping cost again.
Someone at Malaysia will sent to all buyer at Malaysia using local postage.
I have use this method to buy from Japan and US... all item receive.
That is bulk a.k.a Spree ak.a Batch.
TS paid for Personal order .. Agent do not have to wait for all the items to arrive at warehouse then only ship. Agent can just ship TS's items immediately after they received TS items at warehouse. This is call Personal order.
Well TS, maybe your agent is giving personal order in another way. As in send to her 1st then only post to u Without needing to wait for the batch to close or other buyers items to arrive at their warehouse.
