Laptop shipping from USA to Philippines?
I want to buy a laptop online but my problem is that the said company only ships in the US territory. I have an uncle in USA (in Florida to be specific) and he will be the one to ship it here. So my question is, how much will it cost shipping a laptop from USA to Philippines??? Please give a serious answer! PLEASE DONT ANSWER ME WITH THINGS LIKE THIS: "JUST GO BUY IN THE PHILIPPINES" .. I NEED AN ANSWER NOT A SUGGESTION!

Answer 1 :
Many Filipinos send balikbayan boxes containing canned foods and other supplies to their families in the Philippines. If your uncle decides to send a laptop through this method it may cost $45 (P2025) or more to ship. However, when it reaches the Philippines there may be additional tariff taxes applied to your new laptop if found by customs. You will need to contact your local government on the current tariff tax rates, if any, for new laptops imported into the Philippines. Another concern may be the reliability in the delivery of your laptop. It may get stolen along the way. Your uncle may inquire on paying for delivery insurance in the event your laptop is stolen or damaged. Although not often convenient, one way to guarantee safe delivery of your laptop is by inquiring on any relatives or trusted friends that are leaving to visit the Philippines. They can bring your laptop as a carry-on luggage through the airlines and meet you at the airport upon arrival.

i bought a laptop for 350 dollars in the usa. 375 with tax. Soon i return back to the netherlands. Do you think they will stop me in the air port and ask me if i bought it here on my visit, if so will they tax me. I heard if its under 500 dollars it is ok and wont tax me..

They won't stop you. Dont' carry it in the original box, just stuff it in your backpack.

Looking for a laptop in the USA to be shipped to the UK , any help ?
| Looking for a laptop in the USA to be shipped to the UK , any help ? i was wondering is there any website i can get a Laptop from the USA , and get it shipped the to UK ? i was looking at HP pavilion's , i noticed the price difference from the USA to the UK and was wondering if i could buy it from a USA website ? this would really help ! thanks ! Laptops & Notebooks - 2 Answers People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : Answer 1 : i honestly dont know why but companies have to versions one for the US and one for the UK and i have noticed that the UK dosent get as many choices as the US people do Answer 2 : Check the warranty including return to base will still apply if you buy from the US and use in UK Check that the physical keyboard is UK configuration ( does it have a Euro key?) Consider wisely if the goods haveto be returned to the US ( cost 5kg courier to US) Expect to get caught for import duty (c17.5% over £40) and couriers handling charges for the custom charge ( fixed charges from £15 upwards) ... these are non-negociable initially as you will not get posession of the goods without paying the full price including the extra handling/customs |
