Where there is a will there is a way! Thanks for sharing this information and for your fabulous shipping services too! 😘
We aim to provide great service and those items that no one thinks Australia wants 🙄
Hi Meridith, thanks for sharing! Just beware that not all luxury houses will allow for shipping to freight forwarders, for example, Louis Vuitton. Celine is also pretty strict. Also, consider finding a company in Europe, it’s roughly 10-20% cheaper in EU than UK. Love your vids🥰
Thank you for this information
Do you mean the parcel service is cheaper or the fashion items?
But does Celine ship anything internationally from UK or France?
This was just what I was looking for, I appreciate this video.
Thanks for watching!
Such great information and so very interesting how it all works. It seems a relatively easy and safe process for sure. Thank you so much for sharing Meredith. Much love. Jenni from Adelaide. XX
Thank you for watching Jenni
Shipito is also good. I’ve been using them for a number of years and they have warehouses in Austria and the US (US-based company)
Thank you! Great tip!
great information. we are lucky in the UK to have access to most pieces. I live quite far away from London where the best selection is - but it is definitely easier for me to visit than it is for you guys over in Australia.
Thanks for watching Deb.
@@livingluxwithmeredith always 😘
I’m gonna use shippn first time ,,, lets see 😊
Good luck!
Meredith is the coolest!
Thank you!
Wow great information Meredith, thanks for sharing 🌺🌺🌺

Hello Congratulations 🥳🥳 you just won my unboxing📦 lucky giveaway Text me up 👆⬆️ to claim your winning 🎊🥳
I just watched Cassie’s video and I’m so curious if you will be getting the SJP fendi collab bag. Looks stunning!
I have a list of about 9 bags on my Wishlist from this collection, so watch this space!
What happens if the package is opened and there’s faults? Is there an option for skytrax to return it ?
@@Dmcmjones you would direct the return the sane way you direct them to send it on to you.
Hi great video, I just happen to find this and used skypax for coach in the UK. When you're checking out is the "value" how much the item cost?
Yes it is
I live in the Gold Coast, Australia, and I'm facing a bit of a challenge. I'm trying to purchase three items from IKEA UK, but unfortunately, they won't accept my Australian bank card. I was wondering if you could share any advice or tips on how to navigate this situation. Have you encountered a similar issue before?
It might be tied to your bank, I have an AMEX and find international cards are easier when trying to have things shipped using a forwarding service
So no custom. But no VAT as well I assume, compared to buying and get delivered directly from the store ?
Correct, you can’t claim the VAT back.
I live in Iraq and I want to buy the board game ‘gloomhaven’ that does not ship to my country, the box is really big and I was wondering if I could get it shipped to me?
They would ship it, but be prepared for the postage costs.
When I got my address my suite number was on the second line not the first. The first line is 1a Rugby Road. This is how the sample is telling me to put address.I am worried it's wrong.
I put the suite first but I think either way will get to where it needs to be.
@@livingluxwithmeredith Awesome! Thank you.
Thank you so much for this informative video. In your experience, does Skypax process / update on weekends? Also, what was your experience with the delivery services in the UK which delivered package from the store to the Skypax suite? I tried this for the first time and it looks like DPD is the courier that was paid by the store to deliver my package to the Skypax suite. However, it doesn’t appear that they took it to the suite address directly but rather like some met the the DPD courier at Heathrow and my package was in a bin along with other packages. Does this sound correct to you? Thank you for your time! Vincent
I don’t think it updates on weekends. It does depend how the store ships the parcel and if it’s sent by direct courier it could have a system like you described. I hope everything goes seamlessly for you from here.
It appears to now be in the hands of FedEx. It’s my first time using this sort of service, so it was a bit harrowing going through the black hole period (as you mentioned). Also, it does seem that the Skybox attendant picks up a group of packages at Heathrow, which is where the courier stated they made the delivery-this was a little unnerving because my understanding is that my package would be delivered to the physical address provided by Skybox, which was close by but not in Heathrow. Thank you again so much for all the information you provided and for your reply. It was very reassuring. Best wishes for a wonderful new year!
How long does it take to say it’s holding a package for you?
Usually about 48 hours
Very informative
Thank you
Wow 😮 thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching
Is there some sort of verification process for the actual value of items assuming that there’s not a price tag attached of course. How would they say appraise a piece of jewelry?
There is no verification process. For the most part customs take it on faith the value on the paperwork is correct. However if they randomly chose your package to inspect and found a receipt, you would probably have a few questions to answer and fines to pay for lying.
Hello, how about from Asian countries like Vietnam/ Thailand to Canada?
You would need to investigate if there is a service for that. I don’t know of one.
hi, thank you for the information, just a quick question, when you fill out the delivery on a website, do you put send to company? as it is being sent to a forwarder. I would just like to know if it matters to leave it as my own address? they give me or do I select deliver to company, thanks,
kind regards!
Put deliver to company so they know they can only deliver in business hours.
Thanks for the insight
Thank you for watching
@@livingluxwithmeredith your welcome
how much would you charge me to forward a package from Australia to the U.S.?
You would need to find a service to do this. I’m not the service.
Do you know of similar service that forwards from Europe to the U.S.?
I’m fairly certain Skypax offer that route
I need something from canada 🇨🇦 to the US
I haven’t heard of a company working out of Canada
First 🤪
