Last August, POS Malaysia stopped Flexipak parcels to US so my online business has been closed since then. I have shopped everywhere for alternatives but there is only the branded expensive couriers which RM100-400 for just 150gm package. There are Malaysian sellers on Ebay still shipping at RM15 only, how do they do it? Which service has such low prices? Some are shipping from Singapore because its cheap but if that, how are they getting the parcels from Malaysia to Singapore for free?

Forget Asia Express, very expensive.

And its not to a single address but many addresses.

POS Malaysia said on its website that it was broke and sent home 50% of its staff and thats why no international shipping. But suddenly it starts Asia Express at 5X normal price and then its OK to ship?? They play games! And if it was broke and couldnt afford to pay the staff, where did it get the money to make a new website two weeks ago? I wrote to my MP for answers but so far, Hi-Com wont answer the MP about whats really going on.

I was paying RM28 with tracking to any country for 150gr. So im looking for a similar service. I know there are many Malaysian online sellers and I dont know how they are doing it. They WERE on Flexipak but now, who knows? Thats what Im trying to find out and its difficult.

Ok, here is an example of forwarders....

There is a Malay seller who gets people to join his business as drop shippers or something. What he plainly says on his advert details is that he is based in JB. He either carries the packages across the bridge and mails them at Singapore Post, or a singaporean mule carries them back to SG for a price. Im not sure which way he does it but he shows pics of his shippings which have the SG Post stickers on them. I have forgotten his company name but he sells a book to explain the details for RM3K or 4K or something.

So it looks like in JB there are people around to take packages back. I wrote to SG Post about this and they claim they dont know anything. Im writing again to today to see if they are willing to open an office in Malaysia to catch the Malaysian sellers.

I dont have commercial account but thats not the problem because discounts from RM200 wont take you back to RM28 or lower. Other couriers like DHL e-commerce offer a BIT of discount if you are high-volume shipper, like 50 packages per day. Im not that high.

But people HAVE found these answers somewhere, somehow, because they are shipping very cheap. Its such a mystery.

Yes, I dont have friend in SG to post for me and I think thats how many are doing it. Does your friend want a customer? I know the prices from SG, cheap, if your friend charges something its OK too.

ALL the world couriers have lower price but they demand high volume. I have been searching all of them. Many demand paid membership, your company papers, etc.

I dont want to go off the topic but even locally, how is free shipping done? You see an item on Shopee, RM6....and free shipping. How is this done? Even Easy Parcel is RM6 so how can they offer -0- ? Someone has to pay for shipping!
