[QUOTE="ebunny, post: 1657200, member: 33560"]Thanks, Collect89. Appreciate your reply and help, too. :) But, shipping coins to the U.S. is just part of the problem The other part is shipping coins from the U.S. to Singapore. I don't use freight-forwarding companies the whole time. But there are advantages in using these companies, amongst them being storage and consolidation of shipments. Freight-forwarding companies allow us customers to store our purchases in their warehouses in the U.S., usually for free for a specified time period. We can then consolidate and ship our items as a single consignment. It's useful when we purchase from several merchants in the U.S. over a period of time, especially those who aren't able to ship directly to Singapore. The consolidated shipment also means more savings on shipping charges. These freight-forwarding companies will further pool consignments from several customers together so they can get much cheaper airline rates because they ship in bulk. It's also more environmentally friendly, I think, to ship this way. The only problems are people like terrorists because of whom inspection of our consignments become necessary.[/QUOTE]
