Online shopping is becoming a part of life of every Juan. There is already Ebay.ph, Lazada.com.ph, Zalora.com.ph and other online shops that spread throughout the online world.

Unfortunate for use, local online shops has limited list of products that we can buy and most are in low quality. That forces me to look to Amazon to buy tech related products, like ipad pro screen protector, apple watch band, etc.

Still, the problem with shopping in Amazon is the limited number of products for international shipping. Shipping directly to Philippine address is expensive and Amazon will charge for tax higher that the actual tax rate (but excess will be refunded).

I had a chat with my colleague and he recommended that I use my-shoppingbox.com to handle the shipping. I can buy items from Amazon and other US online stores and send them to my my-shoppingbox.com US address. So, I tried...

Here are the steps to be able to use my-shoppingbox.com shipping service:

1. Signup to my-shoppingbox.com to get US or Europe delivery address. 

2. Use your my-shoppingbox.com address as delivery address when you shop in online store such as Amazon.com.

I ordered a guitar strings and ipad pro 10.5 Tech Armor glass protector on Amazon.com on February 24, 2018.

The items was delivered to my US address on March 02, 2018 - just 7 days for standard delivery and shipping was free!

3. Wait for the package to be listed in your my-shoppingbox.com account. It will usually take 3-5 days to appear.

My order appeared to my account the next day, i.e. March 03, 2018! That was freakin' fast!

4. Pay shipping to Philippine address. You have a choice to ship the item by air or sea. By air is fast around 7-10 days but expensive (5.99USD/lb). By sea shipping will take around 1 month but cheaper (2.99 USD/lb).

I paid using BDO card and got 10% discount on shipping fee - not bad.

5. Wait for package to arrive to your Philippine address. 

So, shop now and enjoy the fruits of your labor - while you still can :-).
