I shipped a laptop stand from Amazon USA to test them as I am looking to buy more items.

It departed Dubai to Lebanon. Very very fast.

I will keep you updated once I receive my shipment.

Re: Shipping from abroad (share your experience)

watch out, last time they tried to trick me to pay at 8500 rate. The postman was either tricking me or too naive, i doubt the latter.

I know. Last time I shipped an item with Aramex "Not S&S" to my friend's work office in summer. The postman asked for 30000 LPB and my friend paid without asking for an invoice. He told him "هي للجمارك".

I called them and I asked them for the invoice so they sent it to my email.

My shipment arrived in Beirut and from what I saw on S&S website, the charges are cheaper than what I expected. Will post everything once I receive the shipment.

I used S&S two weeks ago and i paid at a rate of 1500LBP. The shipping and handling charges were $20 and the delivery man insisted that i had to pay 30kLBP not more, for some reason they took the delivery charges at 1500 rate also Customs were at 1500 it is werid.

Can you share the invoice here?
And when you received the shipment and paid for it, did they give you an invoice?

I got my shipment today and I paid more than the invoice they sent.

They wrote the total on the shipment box. I will share the full details after getting an answer from them about what happened.

Re: Shipping from abroad (share your experience)

the final charge will be in usd on 1500, but if you look at the customs invoice there's an added charge for inflation rate which will add the remaining charges so the shipping ends up on 3900LL.

Personally I have zero problems with them.

Re: Shipping from abroad (share your experience)

Here is my experience with Shop&Ship. Very satisfied.

- I ordered a laptop stand from Amazon USA on 11-2-2021.
- Delivered to my Shop&Ship USA address on 13-2-2021.
- Shipment registered on 15-2-2021 and shipped to Lebanon.
- Shipment delivered to my house on 18-2-2021 morning.

Shipment history:
History.jpg

----------------

- The cost of the shipment is 29$.
- Shipping fees is 28.70$
- The total cost of the (shipping fees, customs, handling, and VAT) is 136867.65 LBP. (I paid 140000)

The shipping cost will be divided into two invoices. The shipping invoice will be paid based on 1500 while the difference will be added to the duties and handling invoice under inflation charge
The rate converter in terms of shipping is 3900 LBP.

First invoice

Second invoice

They will not give you a paper invoice. They wrote the amount on the box.

And finally, they will send an email for the payment confirmation with a link to check it.

Re: Shipping from abroad (share your experience)

I noticed this today in my email when Shop&Ship activated my account.

These are their fees for now considering the 1$ = 3900LBP

Re: Shipping from abroad (share your experience)

I got another shipment with Shop&Ship. It took one week to arrive.

I ordered a Monitor Arm from Amazon

This time there was no tracking in the USA so I thought it was lost. After that, the shipment history got updated when it arrived in the UAE.

I paid 250000 LBP for the (shipping fees, customs, handling, and VAT) which is very good since the weight of the shipment is 7.13 pounds (3.23 Kg).

The cost of the shipment is 25$ but the customs valued it 150000 LBP and took 36000 LBP (24%). I think because the box was big and heavy.

Hello

Due to the limited quantity of baby milk supply in Lebanon, I will be ordering Milk for my baby from abroad.
I found the Milk we regularly use in UK. I usually use MyUS to order stuff from USA, but never tried any shipping facilitator in UK.

Which shipping agency can i deal with to deliver such product from UK to Lebanon?

Use www.shopandship.com

Their fees for now considering the 1$ = 3900LBP and you will pay the (shipping fees, customs, handling, and VAT) here in LBP. Don't pay them online in USD.

Check this below for the handling and clearance fees if you are going to order a big quantity.

Also, reach out to them on Twitter to make sure you can ship milk with them.

Once I ordered a protein powder online, upon arrival, Liban Post refused to hand it over to me before I get a clearance from the Ministry Of Health that this product complies with some safety regulation. Please double-check this as well.
