My stuff started arriving after 2-1/2 months, but it took 13 weeks for the last bit to show up. The majority was all shipped at the same time, but the last smaller box was shipped 2-1/2 weeks later and was the lone straggler.

The company I dealt with in the So Cal area, has a contact one can call in the Philippines to verify status and location of the shipment. The lady I talked to was great and got to know my voice after a while when I called. My stuff arrived in Manila after 4-5 weeks, then sat for 1-2 weeks to clear customs, then was on a ship that went 1st to IloIlo, then Bacolod, then Cebu, and finally Dumaguete. I was told in CA that it would arrive in 5-6 weeks, which is true if it is going to Manila, but it sure takes a heck of a lot longer to get to Dumaguete

SO I just checked the tracking again today on my shipment and sure enough at 2 and a half months plus a few days,My stuff is logged as sitting in warehouse after unloading in marikina city manila area..Seems regular service to me when compared to knowdafish story here...WELL i'm all yee ha for now so I hope the rest of the way is good....Thanks for the info you all..:D

Hey, no problem! I meet with people from the forums at least once a week or so, some come from other parts of the Philippines.

Best regards,

Does anyone know of a good shipper door to door from Thailand to here.

Depends from where in Thailand, if it is Chiang Mai, Boonma has a good reputation.
Boonma Cargo, Chiang Mai Thailand

LBC is now available in the SouthEast US, woo hoo! And their standard box is a few cubic inches bigger then the others.

I'd sell the flat screens and not ship them at all. You can buy flat screen in Phils. I just don't find tv shows on Phils cable worth the bother myself..
