You can also see that message at the bottom of your order history You will receive an email of confirmation and details of paying. The status of my order then became “Awaiting Western Union Payment” which you will see on the order history of your account.Our total is $73.10 and the order was officially placed on 21 st of May, 2017.ĮDIT: I now have a VISA card and PayPal – saves a lot of time if you have at least one of these! I chose Western Union because we don’t have credit cards nor Paypal. Then, you will have to choose the mode of payment.In my case, the 3 albums were a little less than a kilogram each, destination is Philippines and the shipping method is by Registered Air Mail, so the total shipping cost is $13.40 (~640php). Shipping cost on Kpoptown is based on the area of destination, shipping method and weight of your package, not on the quantity of your items.Registered Air Mail has 14~28 days shipping time indicated but as you read later, you’ll know that my package came after just 7 business days (11 days) after being shipped ^^. The ETA is 10~15 days but it’s a little expensive like EMS. It has a tracking number and can contain more albums/items. And there is this new option, “K-Packet”.
A.c.e cactus album buy update#
Also it arrives earlier (3-7 business days) but if you want to go for cheaper price, EMS is not the way to go! But please note that Registered Air Mail is only possible if you’re buying around 1~4 albums from Kpoptown depending on the weight(?), otherwise it will be EMS.ĮDIT: There has been an update on the rates of Korea Post applicable since Jso there could be slight changes in shipping fee. Though, in EMS, your package might arrive at your door (if it is small and did not get stuck at customs). But I don’t really recommend EMS because it’s extremely EXPENSIVE and can get stuck at customs so you’ll still pick it up from the Pasay office.
It costs a little more than the UNREGISTERED packet which doesn’t have a tracking number but cost very much less than EMS which also has a tracking number. I STRONGLY ADVICE YOU CHOOSE this on your purchase because it comes with a tracking number which is VERY IMPORTANT AND HELPFUL on claiming your package from PHLPOST.
Next, they will ask what your shipping method/carrier you want your items to be sent through.In my case, I wrote my address on Diliman, Quezon City so my package arrived at Quezon City Central Post Office. Unlike in other countries, your package won’t arrive at your door (unless it is EMS shipping and package was not stuck at customs), but still input your home address because it’ll determine which local post office your package will be for pick up. I made an account on Kpoptown and put 3 of the Cactus Album (for me and 2 other friends) in my cart then proceeded to check out.In Kpoptown, YOU CAN PAY through Western Union so it’s not a problem if you don’t have credit card or Paypal which is the usual case since I know most of us are still students.Your album purchase counts on Hanteo Chart so it’ll support your groups/artists.They were selling the album at $19.9 (~995php, one of the lowest I’ve seen for Cactus) while other shops were selling it at around $20 to almost $30.Among all the stores, me along 2 other friends opted to buy from Kpoptown for the following reasons: In my case, I wanted to buy A.C.E’s 1 st Limited Special Single Album – Cactus. :))įirst thing you need to do is to check and compare prices from the different stores of the album/merch you want to buy. So I hope I can help people like me this time. Most of the blogs available online are very limited, some are even outdated (at least 2 years old) and doesn’t talk about the PhlPost process. I, myself, experience being lost, being confused and upset during my first purchase because I don’t have any idea what to do and there’s no one I can ask. H i~ I wrote this blog in order to help other Filipino Kpop fans who lack the know-hows.
