Hi dreamz,

As per my email to you:

I'm not sure of the dimensions of the products as well as this is the first time i'm ordering them.
From my understanding, all shipping charges are based on weight only, not size.

It seems there are quite a number of issues and uncertainty arising from my order (3 out of 4 items) from the many emails. In order not to jeopardise the orders of other spreeists, i reckon its best that i withdraw from this spree. Since the entire order has not been put through to Amazon yet, appreciate if you could refund the amount of sgd127.80 to my dbs account I have transferred earlier to you.

Do let me know once you have transferred.
Thank you very much,
Leewen

hi leewen
as per my email reply to you. sent: 2/10, 16:53. post here for the record as well:

hi
you are right that shipping charges is base on weight. however, there are 2 kinds of weight that is in question. ACTUAL weight of items and DIMENSIONAL weight.

from CGW website:

Bulky but light items take up more space in an aircraft. This is why shipping companies sometimes charge for the 'volumetric' weight of an item.

If the volumetric weight of your package is greater than the physical weight, we will use the volumetric weight to calculate the shipping charge.


http://www.comgateway.com/CGW/com.comgateway.bluesky.common.ShippingServices.do?hqddcgtyxsd=Jk1DmXf%2B0fAlEA1ly6zqV3k4Xhw%3D#calculated

you can check out the link above to get a better understanding of how shipping charges is calculated.


as for my spree, shipping charges is calculated based on actual weight of items plus remaining box weight which is divided in proportion of the actual weight of spreeists items. ie. the heavier their items, the more empty box weight they bear.

this empty box weight is the dimensional/volumetric weight. THEREFORE, if an item is very LIGHT but HUGE, the box used to pack the item would definitely be huge. CGW will charge whichever is HIGHER. so if dimensional/volumetric weight is higher, they charge as that.

i would be more than happy if i am wrong in assuming that the items are bulky but i rather err on the side of caution than happily place order and then be faced with crazy shipping charges when it reaches. that should not be the responsibility of a spree organizer, just placing orders and not caring to alert spreeists of potential risks. again, that is my viewpoint and it is fine perfectly fine to be that others may have their own opinions.


kindly provide your bank account details for refund as i only capture funds transfer no. but not bank account number as that is private and i don't wish to invade into their private bank account details. i am only able to trace your transfer as:

18 Sep 2012 ITR I-BANK leewen S$127.80


no bank account details of yours on my POSB account, as seen above.
thanks lots.

cheers~

hi gera

dora-
from website: Product Dimensions: 18 x 24 x 32 inches ; 8.6 ounces
Shipping Weight: 3 pounds (View shipping rates and policies)

is the above item as bulky as 3 pounds? am not sure if its indeed 3 pounds. if its just a cover, i don't think its that heavy. would possibly cost about S$6+/- to ship in. provided, its not 3 pounds.

play doh-
bulky set at 1.5 pounds. could possibly cost up to S$20 to ship in. pls reconsider.

thanks!

Hi dreamz,
Thanks for your info.
Previous one is too small for my girl, so thought of getting a bigger one. Didn't know the shipping will be so expensive. No wonder it is not sold in sg. I would like to reconsider again. Sorry and thank you very much for you help.
