DODI3OG Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) I'm going to buy a PS4, but I don't know how much the shipping fee will cost. I have a budget of around $500 and it'd be a pain in the ass if it surpasses that mark. BTW, I'm buying it from Amazon. Any suggestions on a cheaper alternative is welcome. Also, I live in the Philippines. Edited June 28, 2013 by DODI3OG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Fozborne Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Do (does?) the Philippines use the same NTSC region specification North America uses? I believe the games are region-free for the PS4, but playing DVDs and Blu Rays could be problematic. And as far as shipping cost, if you go to Amazon and pre-order the product it has a quoted cost of $19.98 to ship and $50.39 for an import fee deposit. The total cost comes to $470.33. This is with 5-10 day 'AmazonGlobal' shipping. Upgrading to 2-4 day shipping is $15 extra (plus an extra tax, I would guess). This price is with a US credit card, so you may have a currency conversion fee. These costs were calculated using the following address, your price may differ. 1 Emerald Street Metro Manila, 1718 Philippines One last thing, make sure you get a 'launch day' edition or bundle if you want it to come in a reasonable time frame. Also keep in mind that Amazon charges your credit card when the product ships as opposed to most who will charge your card now.

Jackal. Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showforum=36 Probably better off there, bud. And I doubt you will get a cheaper alternative as it's going to be down to your import rates/custom rates etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtremoMania Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'm going to buy a PS4, but I don't know how much the shipping fee will cost.

Also, I live in the Philippines. Dude why not just wait for the PS4 to be exported here in our country. I would be glad if I have to wait for a long time since games that are present on PS4 are still to be released within later this year and I know that in our currency here, Blu-ray games worth P2,000 and might be more now that it is PS4 game. Also shipping costs is expensive, $29.99 per shipment. LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
