dev997 62 Report post Posted October 15, 2013 Hello All, I wanted to know if anyone has used HOPSHOPGO for shipping and how is the experience. I have heard that they provide service for consolidated shipping , so u can get more than 1 items packed in one package and get them together, saving on shipping. I am hoping to get 4 phones in same package delivered to me and so was searching for option, but have a few queries which I hope u can answer.1. do they provide custom clearance service too ? 2. How much time they will take on average for shipping.3. Item I am thinking of getting is off value 900$ and weigh 3-4lbs (consolidated package). How much charge in total I should expect.4. And most importantly how reliable are they? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should expect delays in customs for bulk orders. Insurance is mandatory, if you`re using HSG. It`ll be added to your shipping cost. Just make sure your package worth does not go over $2000. You`ll need a Import/Export code for that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ni0987 179 Report post Posted October 15, 2013 One friend is in US right now. Can he send me electronic stuff through USPS? I know they won't allow anything with batteries. So, I plan to get a mobile posted without batteries. Is it possible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was wondering how would be rate their services in reliability. And how much time I should expect they will take from their hub to deliver to me(via both services).

slightee 5 Report post Posted October 15, 2013 Both DHL and FedEx are reliable. Moreover, you're taking insurance and your shipment is covered for theft or damage. I've only used DHL through them. FedEx takes 2-3 days more. My shipment reached from Portland to Chennai in 4 working days. But, they took three days for custom clearance as shipment value was $1200. You should expect delays for your shipment. Sent from my MB865 using Tapatalk 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, I plan to get a mobile posted without batteries. Is it possible? Never ever get anything shipping directly to india via USPS. They will charge 41.8% custom fee on declared value ( they apparantely have fixed charge of any electronic item if a package comes thru post). No matter what u do and whom to talk to , they will not negotiate on that and the item gets stuck in custom. Use package forwarder services like ppobox etc only. they are fast,trackable all the way to ur home and less expensive (usps shipping will cost more) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr.faramroze 703 Report post Posted October 15, 2013 Also never rely on cheap USPS shipping rate indicated on eBay.com, if its $23, $34, $41, its definitely going to get held at your zone's customs office. If anyone wants to have USPS for direct shipping without any forwarding, go for sellers who ship for $49.50 or $60 or $71. The higher the USPS shipping charge, the safer delivery we get with or without customs clearance. Ebay.com examples are: Cport-wholesale and rangerange. Initially I used to place orders by USPS but then package used to return back. A nasty call follows from the customs office about various laws and penalties, eventually the seller or the sender also suffers in the deal. He doesn't know when he is going to get back his phone from India customs and the refund process is delayed too. HopShopGo is an easy alternative to PPOBOX, cheaper and safer. PPOBOX provides better service for those opting for professional package. Many of my business associates have business accounts with PPOBOX. Its wise to hop and shop between different forwarding companies for a smooth delivery and even logistics. ComGateaway is also a reliable company we have accounts with, slightly more expensive than PPOBOX. If I order handsets under Rs 10000 I make it PPOBOX mandatory, if its expensive package I will switch over to HopShopGo and ComGateaway. I have received intact parcels from HopShopGo and ComGateaway till now. Home Office with Samsung Note8 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance for help and clarifications  Don't worry.. Your purchase with geb is protected by eBay protection.. If at all you don't get your product in stipulated time, you'll get refund.. I've got lot of stuff n never faced any issue.. If you see, icc geb has been used by lacs of people.. When the are so many customers, complaints are ought to be there.. But if you see % it should be 99% positive ratings.. That said, don't blame icc for bad product. You have to do your due diligence regarding product. It's deficiency cannot be blamed on icc as icc is just forwarding company n will buy whatever you choose n fwd it to you in India Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
