Title: Is there an online music shop that ships to the Philippines?
Post by: Ninjek on December 02, 2011, 08:10:45 PM
Hi!

I'm not sure if dito dapat itanong ito, but it seems to fit 'technology and pro audio'... Anyway, I'm trying to order a certain musical gadget (TC Helicon Harmony-M) from major online shops. However, when I try to confirm my order, biglang sasabihin na hindi pwede sa Philippines i-ship.

So my question is, do you guys know of any credible online shop that still ships musical gear to the Philippines successfully? Or if not, maybe there's someone who knows how to have an item shipped? I'm pretty sure there's some kind of workaround, kasi marami namang umoorder ng stuff in bulk then ibebenta rin dito... I'm hoping someone could share his ideas or experiences.

Thanks in advance!

try mo sa guitar center bro, ok yung features ng site nila, pili ka lang ng item na gusto mo, then add to cart then continue to next step then meron nang computation ng shipping and other taxes papunta dito sa pinas, di ko lang  sure kung gaano ka accurate yung computation nya pati kung magkano ang exchange rate na gamit.

Actually puwede dapat yan. QC area din ako e.
Try mo na lang sa Sweetwater bro. Ako malalaki pa inoorder ko dun. Yung G-System ko dun ko inorder ($1400), Epi Zakk Wylde ($800) and marami pa like Superior Drummer and iba pang softwares. Yung TC HELICON VOICELIVE 2 ko dun ko din pala inorder. Kaya trusted ko na sila.

They don't ship certain brands because there is an existing distribution agreement with some company here.

Bear in mind when your gear breaks, local companies won't give you warranty and charge you at a premium price.  If you buy it outside the country, be prepared to ship it back also to claim warranty (at your own expense).

hi ckor10,

When you purchase from the online shop, example sa Sweetwater...
Preferably you pay by credit card in USD (whichever currency ang gamit sa online shop)...
Exchange rates will depend sa bank mo. Check with them about it.

br & God bless
