Title: Cheapest international shipping?
Post by: v1n5anity on Jun 11, 2020 at 07:46 AM
This will be my first time to ship an item. I will be returning a jacket I purchased online. Does anyone know who among LBC, FedEx, Air 21 etc charge the lowest when shipping internationally (to US)? Thanks!

Thanks. I looked it up online. It's cheaper by a few hundred bucks than DHL, which I visited a few hours ago. Ang mahal pala! Mas mahal pa sa price ng ishship kong jacket :'( I might as well just try and sell it on Carousell. :-\

Hi, may I ask how you were able to find the rates (of shipping) online for your item? Is there an online calculator, or did you call them to inquire?

Oh, I think I found it:

Kaso, do the given rates already include everything? Or may extra charges, insurance, VAT, etc pa?

Sorry I didn't ask further when I found out the price for shipping costs more than the item I want to ship. But I think yun na yun. Wala ng mga extra. Kanina nakapunta ko LBC just to inquire when they asked what I was shipping and told the guy "a jacket", he looked at his computer and said P2400.
