We do not provide such services. When the overseas office receives the goods, we will repack the package (in accordance with customer’s requirement) and update the order status. The packages would be sent to Hong Kong directly after finished the above process.

As many of our customers would like to keep the original packing box from the seller for re-selling purpose; therefore, Buyippee would ship all the items back to Hong Kong with the original packaging from the seller. However, some customers may have a requirement not to send the original packaging to save the shipment cost. As a result, Buyippee will help repackage your purchased item to reduce the size of your shipment. In a general situation, we will contribute to remove the outer packing carton box. If there are more packing materials inside the package, we may not remove it. Please be aware of the below repackaging conditions:

1) For fragile items, including food, pet food, liquids, wine will be sent back to Hong Kong directly

2) If the box is full, we cannot repack it and it will be sent back to Hong Kong directly

3) Since packaging materials are limited, not every item can be placed in the exact size of packaging materials for repackaging purpose

4) If the goods are already packaged only in plastic bags, we will not repack them

5) Buyippee will not be responsible for any loss or damage to the goods after repackaging

6) Goods cannot be repacked if we did not receive an order with a shipment tracking number.

Repackaging service is to remove the extra shipping packaging, but not to pack items with different tracking number into the same box. Please see the following illustration (one tracking number will be considered as one package):

No. Repack services are carried out in accordance with the order requirements filled in by the buyer. The definition of unknown goods is the goods had already arrived at our overseas offices, but we have not received order form customer. So, we do not get request of repackaging service when it arrives our overseas offices. Therefore, the unknown goods received by overseas offices, will not be repacked, and will be shipped to Hong Kong directly in the original packaging.

Some of the buyers want to combine orders from different sellers in order to save shipping charge. However, different sellers might have different shipping time, buyers therefore do not want to fill out the order form too early. Every day we need to find the buyer who did not fill out the order form before the goods arrives our overseas/HK offices, hoping that they can fill back the order form as soon as possible, but this will affect our efficiency, as well as the quality of our service. In order to encourage buyers to fill out the order as soon as possible, if the item has arrived at the Hong Kong office, and the buyer has not completed the order form, each item will be charged HK$20/day until the buyer submit the order form.

Solution:
If you want to combine orders from different sellers before placing order, there is actually a solution! 
When filling out a shipping order, items that do not have a tracking number can also be placed with the order, just select ‘Without a tracking number’and submit it with other shipped items.
