Vivian:
Shopping with them is definitely no hassles!

All I did was to send them a picture of the coach wristlet I wanted on 25 Aug and I received my coach wristlet on 3 Sep! My coach wristlet was even carefully wrapped in bubble wrap.

Shopaholic really lives to their motto -- Always bringing the best service to you.

I am so pleased with them that I even wrote about them in my blog and recommended my friends to shop with them.

Kudos to you guys! Keep up the goood work.

What Shopaholic will do for you

At Shopaholic,

We aim to provide a customized, lower cost

alternative to deliver products from USA to

our customers in Singapore and Europe.

Our Vision

As shopaholics, we love to shop. And nothing makes us happier than helping you save and get what you want from the shops of United States! At Shopaholic, your satisfaction is our satisfaction. Shopaholic is passionate about sourcing out the best deals for you and picking out the most affordable shipping method!

At Shopaholic, we make a point of partnering with you, our customer , not just working for you.

Our Policy

We will always reply to your questions or orders within the next 24 hours.

We focus on providing the best service to our customers.

Why Shopaholic?

Why choose Shopaholic when you can buy things online and ship back on your own?

1. Some websites strictly require the use of US based Credit cards, so using your Singapore Mastercard/Visa/NETS card just doesn't work.
Although you can use Concierge service offered by Vpost or other related services, but it'll cost an extra S$20.38 + 5.1% of invoice value if your item!

2. You can avoid the unnecessary volumetric weight charges that you would incur with Vpost by allowing Shopaholic to ship your items.
Even they agree that to make the shipping charges worth your dollar, request for your merchant/seller to pack your items as compactly as possible. vPOST shipping charges are based on the package's volumetric weight or actual weight, whichever is higher. But is this feasible? Let us remove the excess, expensive packings for you!
Example of volumetric weight charges imposed by Vpost:

For Apparels

The calculation for the purchase of a shirt is:
Weight of the package: 0.3 kg
Dimensions of the box: (38 x 40 x 3) cm
Volumetric weight of the box calculated by: (38 X 40 X 3)/6000 = 0.8 kg
Volumetric weight will be used since it's higher.

Shipping Charges from VpostJAPAN to Singapore:
Shipping Charges:	$20.00 + $14.26 (0.8) = SGD$31.41

3. We ensure that you get what you want - by helping you exchange your orders if they are wrong, before they are shipped to you. On the other hand, if you had ordered on your own or through a normal spree website, they cannot help you get an exchange.

4. We help you get what you want in less than 3 weeks, while it usually takes longer for a normal spree.

5. Hassle-free shipping from any website, not just what we offer in the sprees. Tell us what you want and we'll get it for you!

6. We source for the cheapest shipping method when shipping you items back to Singapore. Think Vpost is the only alternative? Think again!

7. For some websites like Coach.com, they simply refuse to ship to Vpost. Let Shopaholic get the items you want for you!

8. There is no cap on our orders. We are flexible because You are our priority.

With so many reasons to choose Shopaholic over others, why wait? Start shopping with us today!

Your testimonial:
Being a first time patronising shopaholic, I had a little misunderstanding with shopaholic with regards to the shipping charges. To make up for the misunderstanding, shopaholic did went through an extra mile in aiding to waive off the internal shipping charges within US by sourcing for another interested buyer. In addition, they went through an extra mile in sending me emails of the latest updates of discounts in the various websites. U've done an excellent job and ive changed my perception totally about this website. thank u

Thank you so much!
