Hi guys! 

You may send your shipment to JAC-NJ office:

                                        JOHNNY AIR CARGO - NJ
               c/o JET CREUS / Company Name or Your name
               717 Newark Ave., Jersey City
               NEW JERSEY 07306
               Tel.  #  (201) 659 5152
               Fax  #  (201) 653 5969

NJ offers the lowest sales tax as advised by Jet.  There are instances where your sales tax is waived in NJ but it depends with your supplier. 

Please understand that the increase on the rates is inevitable.  As it is, 21.5% na ang fuel surcharge on top of the airfreight charges we are paying the airlines.  Habol lang namin yung volume ng shipment kasi kaya pa naming i-maintain yung rates.

If you have other concerns, please call or e-mail us directly.

Thank you very much!  Hopefully, the "YOU SHOP, WE SHIP" website will be running by August, 2008.  Medyo matagal kasi kasama na doon yung tracking service so you may trace your package on-line.  Pero siyempre, puwede pa rin kaming tawagan or i-text for status.

We need you on our formal launching so see you there, PinoyDVD members! ;)

Thank you Ms Aura for sorting out my oversized box problem (Amazon box full of paper). The discount you gave helped a lot. Looking forward again to ship through your services.

Hi guys!  Aura Black here,  :)  Allow me to thank all of you for your continued support on JOHNNY AIR's services.  And Mr. DFD, thank you very much for making this site available for us. 

I want to make this short and simple as possible to make it clear for everyone interested with our services:

1.  Your shipment is not limited to DVDs as long as the item is not restricted, prohibited or banned.
2.  Your special rate as a PINOYDVD member applies to shipments forwarded to JAC-NY and JAC-HK (we have branches in LAX & SFO).
3.  Yes, JAC-HK exists run by 1 staff, Eric Manuel.  Suppliers / forwarders must call his mobile first prior to any deliveries.
4.  Minimum of 1 lb. per invoice at $ 6.00/lb + discounted handling fee of $ 5.00 for a week's shipment from JAC-NY (received from Monday to Saturday).
5.  Please register first to avail of the special rates. Kindly ask for the TSA FORM at our Makati Head office or at JAC- Megamall branch.  Inform them you are a PINOYDVD member. 
6.  We may e-mail you the forms, rates and procedures if it is more convenient.  Simply text your e-mail address to 0917-8280788 / 0917-3897434.  Or e-mail us at [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected]  However, you still have to download, print and submit said TSA form with photocopies of 2 valid I.D.s.
7.  If your shipment is not expensive nor highly taxable but bulky & heavy, we still offer a discount on the weight charges.  JAC rates are flexible.  We just need to be informed.
8. Last, marunong po akong mag-tagalog kaya huwag kayong mahiya, pangalan ko lang ang imported  ;)

We welcome comments and suggestions because we still need to improve our craft.  And watch out for the launching of  JOHNNY AIR's online shopping solutions - "YOU SHOP, WE SHIP".  Everything will be done on-line, even the registration - simple and fast.

Hope to see you guys on this formal launching.

Maraming maraming salamat po...

Aura B.

Hi Aura,

I would just like to clarify something.  I ordered a DVD player from OPPO lately and had it shipped to JAC NY.  I got the package this AM.  My question is, is it standard for you to charge an additional $50.00 as handling fee for electronics?  There was no mention kasi sa guidelines nyo as shown above.  The DVD player weighed 10 lbs, so I expected to pay only 10x6 + 5 = $65 + 12% VAT for the shipment.  I was charged $140 (10x7.50 + 50.00 [handling fee] + $15 [VAT]) and was given a discount of $40, so I paid only $100.00.  I dunno if typographical error lang yong $50.00 na handling fee.

Do keep us posted bro.

This was already posted before and I made it my rule of thumb since.  Not 100% accurate but comes real close, di pa naman ako sina-sablay sa aking weight estimation.

I already had about 20 shipments thru JAC, big and small packages. Nung una medyo mahal, pero lately they give me discounts  :)
If you have questions re. their charges, dont hesitate to ask for a discount. Mabait silang kausap  :D

Aura is trying to clarify with JAC NY why I was charged $50 handling fee when this is only applicable to laptops daw..

Could be a paper error. Hope you get a refund.

Incidentally, my latest order got delayed after I got a call from JAC informing me that the Transportation Security Authority (TSA) was inspecting the latest batch of shipments. I'm not exactly sure what that means though since the only reference to a TSA that I could find was to an agency that secures passenger transportation. I may have gotten the acronym wrong though.

TSA - Transporation Security Administation.

TSA clears and checks all items/shipments wether as a passenger baggage or as a cargo, as long as it is taking a flight. Cargo flights are also under the TSA.

Okay that TSA is the US agency that's under the jurisdiction of Homeland Security. Yikes. I thought JAC was referring to the local Philippine TSA counterpart.

Frankly this is the first time that this kind of delay has affected one of my JAC forwarded orders.

I got a refund which will be credited to my next shipment.  Handling fee was reduced to $5.00 from $50.00.  Thanks to Aura for the prompt response to my concern.   ;D ;D ;D ;D

talaga! got my matrix trilogy hddvd, 3 disc lang ito, pero it was assessed as 2 lbs, kaya $12+$5 ang bayad ko, can we have it weigh doon sa receiving center before paying? sayang din yung $6 if ever.  :(

I suspect the reason may be that the Matrix trilogy has special packaging - an extra hard sleeve. Pampabigat din yun.

They calculate the volume weight and get the actual weight.  They will calculate the shipping fee using the weight that is higher.  So if your package is bulky but lightweight, they will still calculate the shipping fee using the volume weight.

JAC is really inconsistent.  I have 2 packages from Amazon arrived at the same week.  They (JAC-SM Megamall) charged me the ff:

      2 single disc dvds in small package - 2lbs @$6.50/lbs + VAT + handling fee
      1 dvd game in small package - 2lbs @$6.50/lbs + VAT + handling fee

To sum it, I paid almost Php 1.7k for the above shipments.

Did JAC increased they courier service/s?  I usually order from Amazon.com bi-weekly so I will pay 3,400Php/month shipping fees for 4 dvd movies & 2 dvd games.  Can anyone (JAC/PDVD Members) help me to confirm if this is the correct rate? Thanks.
