Lisod gyud bai if mag order ka online to philippines, dli sad ko pasalig kaayo if ok paba na imong item nig abot sa pinas even the most expensive carriers handle glass like its cotton or rubber.

@weed; diba balik bayan boxes takes months to be sent? mao na barato ra ang shipping?naa pako advice bai, make sure you wont need warranty for those items you bought the hassle and shipping cost aint worth it if the damn item is broken.. or atleast get parts that dont or never break down often.. ako gali na duha2x kog padala ug X-Fi when it came out.. maski soundcard rana pero still ni dayun ko ^_^

I ordered a DELL laptop a few years back which I needed for school. The delivery took longer than expected, so I was really pissed off with it and I had to make frequent calls to them to ask where my laptop was. Anyway as a compensation, they gave me this free T-Shirt (which was nice of them).

calling them is kind of a bad idea. dell chat supp is teh way to go, getting replacements and order shipping upgrades is a cinch. And everytime they dun fullfill thier promise i usually get a consession coupon

i just checked out the dell hongkong site, and their 19" flat panels are going for around $50 cheaper than if you buy from the states... maybe you should check it out and just order from there... :mrgreen:

@ weed

ouch yup experience na sad nako ang customs, sometimes they tax you nearly the same amount of value for the shipment :P

CUSTOMS = low life scum of the earth... corrupt pigs...

if it's just laptops and smaller items then maybe I can assist you with that ie ordering and shipping from the states. I've been shipping laptops to Cebu for awhile now. but if it's desktops , lcd's or other bigger/heavier items then that's another story requiring another type of shipment. customs is already taken cared off by my shipper as well as insurance for said items. please PM me so we could discuss details on this type of transaction.

but please note: I'll only be the third party doing the leg work for a minimum pay. warranties etc etc should be your responsibility - please research thoroughly all the pros and cons of an item's after sales service centers in the Phils - if there's any - before you decide on ordering from the U.S.
