It says on the website that savings only occur for three parcels or more.

Hi, so I was hoping to use YouPost to use as a reshipper but it seems I won't be able to dodge the customs fees anymore? Is this correct?
Looking to buy something from stockX, is there another reshipper thats reliable where you can declare at a value that you want?

 

 

 

TIA

You never could dodge any fees. If goods plus shipping were less than NZ$ 400 Customs would not collect but this amount will change in October. This is not a change on YouShop.

 

Declaring a value you want to avoid duty or GST is basically breaking the law - if Customs opens the package and determine the declared value is incorrect you will not only pay the GST + Duty but also a fine.

 

Also, asking for ways to break the law is against our FUG. I suggest you drop this subject.

Does anyone experience Amazon actually see Youshop address as forwarding company,

 

I tried to buy a some clothing from Amazon but it wont ship it to NZ. Then I thought I might try Youshop but Amazon refuse to send item to the address?

Are you sure Amazon itself wouldn't send, or a third party selling through Amazon (who does the listing say the seller is)?

 

I haven't don it for a while, but last time I bought some clothes (supplied and shipped by Amazon) to Youshop, there was no issue.

I bought a few Jackets from Amazon before Xmas and shipped to Youshop without issue. Haven't shipped anything to Youshop since then.

I’m wondering whether you’re looking to use YS correctly. Haven’t used it for a while but many times in the past.

I entered ‘my’ US YS address, in Oregon, as an alternative address in my Amazon account then selected that as my ‘ship to’ and it was simply shipped there - no problem. Is this what you’re trying to do? If you do this, NZ doesn’t show anywhere.




Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Correct. You need to show your shipping address as it shows on the YS webpage. It quotes an address in Oregon and has a code at the end eg NZxxxxxx where the code is YS's  way of knowing who in NZ the parcesl is going to. If you are trying to ship to the YS address and are including your nz address then of course it will not work. Read YS page here in NZ

I don’t think you’re listening. Are you doing what I outlined above?

Tried adding that jacket to my cart.

Click to see full size

 

 

but is fine with my shipito address.

 

 

Click to see full size

 

 

so I guess they are filtering on youshop? Not sent direct to it from amazon in a very long time because of the stupid boxes amazon use.

Wondering, does it mean anything when you track something from Youshop and its been siting at International Departure since 4th June. Its not being updated or its just siting there, wherever there is, reminding you you chose the cheapest postage.
