sighh, whys so many peeps into lespaul nowadays? i think its in USD charles... or is it a local site? i dont know...

 

[jeremyrozario]

its in USD, anw if your able to order it, and if it reaches singapore in 1 piece, then i think it'd be a good buy

They have free US shipping, so try shipping it to singpost's vpostusa then getting them to ship it over.

What the HC guys had to say about this axe

 

[guitarnub]

yep, use Vpost, im using it for my overseas LTD guitar, since they dont ship to Singapore, Its WAY cheaper too, compared to big name companies like DHL or USPS

 

[spikes]

[choykaiwen]

[stars]

lol ...
dont forget .. VPost ships to california to process the shipping

on top of an addition 2 -3 week delay

be prepared to pay californian GST of 20%

 

[choykaiwen]

Cali GST? I didn't get that when I shipped a ps2 steering wheel over. Total cost was over 200usd.

Ya man, vpost is slow as hell :x due to all the consolidating.

 

[guitarnub]

its slow but cheap

 

[Lifehouse]

I have not tried vpost before but based on many SGers who ships using vpost, there wasn't much problem.

Anyway, I think LP in mahoghany is really neat. Just think SGs.

its slow but cheap

if order from US, not really cheap. The cheapest is using USPS.Normal mail will take about 8-10 days. But you need somebody to post it for you over there.

 

[guitarnub]

how much is USPS?

my new guitar which arrived last week, the shipping was like only $120+ via Vpost

If you want a guitar from the US but some of their policies holding you back, just have em ship the guitar to the US Vpost address and let Vpost handle it from there.

my new guitar which arrived last week, the shipping was like only $120+ via Vpost.

$120 to ship a guitar? that's cheap.
Previously I calculate using vpost it's about $250.
How do you ship the guitar? detaching the neck?
