[ZeroOne]

Seabox sounding good especially for heavy items....anyone have it?

[Swisha]

any issues with shipping medicine through a skybox? liquid or otherwise?

[pete]

Might need a permit.

[silent_riot]

I signed up for it online and got my seabox info in email.
Payment is only cash/cheque for now.
I will try them out by bringing in some heavier stuff (tools).

Websource Amazon deliveries (if not with Prime), can I expect it within 2 weeks? Or it's like CSF, I'll expect it within the month. Can I track properly with Websource? Or tracking is a pain?

From what I'm reading, you guys are saying it's best to ship with WS if it's small packages?

Next question, who ships from the UK? I'm looking to bring in some books from the UK, it'll be heavy, it's at least 60 volumes of law books. Any ideas, how to go about it?

[Chimera]

nightshield you should use laparkhan or one of the other companies seafreight to ship those law books

airfreight will kill you

ezone ships from the UK though if the price isnt an issue

use CSF for really small chit that you eh care about and i emphasize that last part. WS does lick you up with really small items that are duty/vatable but I still trust WS.

I sour...
My cousin sent a bunch of stuff to my skybox and get charge literally the the barest mimimun for everything.

I order some stuff....and get raped...no grease

[nervewrecker]

Need some ice to sit on?

Ordered some stuff, haven't bought anything since last year. Waiting to see how things go. I heard WS rates gone up

[supercharged turbo]

It rel gone up.They lured alot of people in with cheap prices and then gradually sent up their prices

JUst checked my invoice today. Basic 1lb shipping rate is the same as 1lb was over a year ago. Only difference being duty and vat on the invoices.

[*KRONIK*]

Yeah....they not changing the freight rate...
The other taxes are creeping up

[gurmuk]

i getting lick up left right and center with taxes and duties this entire year with CSF

Thanks man. Nahhhh, sea freight sounding like the way to go. Will have to find out if Laparkan has a UK address then. I have a CSF account but I'm not sure if I'm willing to trust them, cause this is a bit important, it's about 100kg so roughly over 200lbs. I don't care how long delivery takes but, I keeping reading this thread and the amount of issues I seeing with CSF.

I thinking I might try WS to ship a few single small books from Amazon, books supposed to fall under the no duty, no vat ...

[*KRONIK*]

Anybody receive a "review of you payment accounts" email from amazon?

[Cross Blood]

[pugboy]

Is it possible to bring foodstuff and snacks via skybox ?
Wanna bring some stuff from japancrate

[M_2NR]

I don't see why not. Supplements are almost never an issue.

[*KRONIK*]

[gurmuk]

Nothing here

[Chimera]

Kronik I'm sure that's a scam email. Did u try logging on to your amazon and using it as usual

[Chimera]

Do you sell stuff on amazon kronik?

Reading this Idk if it's a scam or not.

It apparently relates to amazon seller accounts

[Morpheus]

I got no email like that. Why photo ID? Da heck!

[*KRONIK*]

@ABA

Its not a scam...
I emailed them via the contact form on amazon.com...and they said its legit.
And i only have 7days to comply.

I am not going to comply tho.
Let them close the account if they have to.

I have not done anything to warrant being investigated.

I emailed them back to find out why i am being "targeted"
I also told them to go ahead and close the account....i am not complying.


I also am not an amazon seller.


@morpheus

I am curious also as to why photo ID is required.

[nervewrecker]

Paid $99 to ship a phone case and three wallets

[Swisha]

dunno if this was posted before...
