Username 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2006 I've limited experience in shipping to US. Ask for a registered mail for tracking and to increase speed of delivery, use a courier, ask the singpost counter service personnels, they should be able to help you. Registered = slower and cheaper (much so) Courier = fast but expensive Ask if you could insure your item. You can save on the packing if you decide to ship in your own packaging (remember to protect it with plenty of pack peanuts or foam or packing bubbles). TAPE UP (request for rolls of tape). Tracking can be done on www.singpost.com. hmmm what else...? OH! Bid farewell to your item and cry a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Registered cost less than $10 (depends on weight) and will take 10 working days. If the other party doesn't receive, bring your receipt to singpost and submit a complaint. There are some parcels or envolope (with bubbles in it) available at Singpost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
