  how about insurance? it seems that they don't mention about insurance.
  
  i read vpost. they never mention that their rate is cheaper. anyway, i will try this. I always want to buy a lot of things in ebay-like japan websites. however, these japaneses never want to sell the items to oversea....

  hi,
  
  was outbid by another guy.
  
  any trick to win the bid?
  
  can i just bid the last few minutes before it ends so that other people cannot outbid me? otherwise, other bidder can outbid me if i keep increase the bid.
  
  advise?

  That's what I usually do...I will not bid until the very last minute, then I will put in a very high bid not expected by all the other bidders...

  shipping to Spore will be a bomb...around $30, depending on what you are sending(the weight) and also how fast you want it to reach you. I can help you if you are willing to pay for the shipping price of course

  guys ask u all ah, pls help me
  
  
  
  I want to buy this adidas SL72 shoes from zappos.com US$49.95.
  Free shipping to US address.
  
  So I use vPostUSA address.
  
  And get them to send it to my Singapore address.
  
  I calculated, the shipping cost via vPost is approx S$20.
  
  so US US$49.95 + S$20 after conversion is S$105
  
  So you all think paying S$105 for this sneakers worth it or not... is it cheaper than if I buy it from Singapore? Coz I understand this shoe cannot be found in Singapore liao....
  
  If anyone know if this one still can be found here, pls share with me where and what price is it sold here..
  
  Thanks alot!

  Which overseas website can I make a purchase from?
  You can purchase from any U.S/Japan Merchant website as long as the Merchant allows a Singapore credit card billing address. You should check with the Merchant if you are unsure whether the Merchant supports a Singapore credit card billing. Click here for a list of U.S websites / Japan websites.
  
  I found this is the FAQ section of vPost. What does it mean by the merchant allows Singapore credit card billing address? As long it's a valid credit card can already right?

  I bid in the last 3 secs. by the time I bidded finished, the auction ended. thus I always wins.
