Shipping address siem reap and customs fees

Post by whereami »

Shipping from USA shoes(2 pair new) and 1 cell phone ( new) to siem reap . What is a good address /company where can I ship to siem reap and pick up in person (they never find my house) ? Also items values at 850 new but I only paid 400usd . Best way for cheapest customs price when items arrive in Phnom Penh at airport (I won't be there in person I'm having sent to siem reap) ? And i dont care how long this process takes im looking for cheapest....P.s. this was a onetime deal /test on retail items I couldn't get shipped on Amazon (the easy way) so I decided to test the waters.....Not again not worth the effort I'm guessing

I have a PO Box in SR and have all sort of stuff shipped there over the years. Never lost anything, never paid custom duties.

I am 1 out of 3. Two went awol. The one that did arrive was 6 months to delivery - a bank card. I had cancelled it and sent another - which has not arrived. Never say never. Sent to wife’s workplace - a legit institution.
Stay classy na

I hear that a lot, I wish I had as much luck as I had with deliveries to Cambodia elsewhere. I literally had dozens of parcels sent to Siem Reap, from running shoes to kitchen equipment, from a DSLR camera to cat toys; never lost a thing.
