In the meantime, Mr Vergara said that using alternative courier services such as JustShip will cost him $28.10 to send a parcel to the US.
Previously, with SingPost's regular service, Mr Vergara paid $11.90 to send out parcels to America and charged a flat rate of US$15 for all orders worldwide, including the US. Now, he charges US$25 for shipments to the US, while maintaining the flat rate for other international orders.

JustShip, a shipping service company that started in 2020, has taken the opportunity to introduce a lower-cost shipping option.
