US stores ~ buying and shipping to the Philippines

The cheapest i tried was Dumaguete Post Office. I have sent packages from here to South Africa Johannesburg(an expensive canvass painting on tube container) i paid 1,700 and 2 nativesweaved bags to Paris, France paid a 1,000 something(i can't remember) both arrived in 2 months without damages.

 

Please try LBC as well, they have a branch in Robinsons beside BDO.

 

Only BB shipper I know of that goes the other way;

Balikbayan box - Manila Forwarder

Larry

 

I'll respectfully reserve comment.

 

Along with Larry.. Manila Forward...not he or myself will rate that here...

I think there is an opening to setup with the chinese tramp steamers that handle all the BBbox shipments.*Container shippers*..tah dah..
. the way to make the big bucks is always find a hole and fill it.. I just dont have the startup that it takes today..the holding stations both in Manila and stateside/aussie/euro would also be costly.. or you can try to just cookie cutter it and put all the existing services together. This is a country that only ships in..plain and simple..there is not much commerce for the average *Pino-Joe* to ship international..but it could all be put together.. start a group..gather the funds..make a fortune?> maybe ..but an even harder part would be gettting the money together to do the startup..given the information known and the difficulty of doing anything in country here for a foreigner.. There is zero interest for money pinoy to be involved ..as far as I can see anyways..*shrug*..
