Riiiiight, sure... Ok thanks Sharon (Reship customer support rep).
If I click the link to allow Reship to unpack my small 3lb leather purse I now get charged another "small $ 7.00 fee" for that service! And only THEN do I get to see the new shipping rates for my little item... which I just bet won't be much lower than what it shows as now. Good little scam there.

If I could get an estimate on the "new shipping cost" after the original packaging is discarded by Reship, before I actually click the link to request that service, then I would be able to compare the cost and see if it is even worth it.

Here's my recent update for January 2016:
I purchased a medium size, pre-owned vintage leather handbag (weight was only 3 lbs) from a seller who didn't ship to Canada.
With dimensions of 17 x 14.5 x 6 inches, these were my shipping options according to Reship:
UPS Standard... Estimated 7 - 10 Business Days $37.34
UPS Worldwide Expedited. Estimated 5 - 7 Business Days $40.50
DHL Express Worldwide... Estimated 2 - 5 Business Days $43.05
UPS Worldwide Saver... Estimated 3 - 5 Business Day $41.33
USPS Priority International... Estimated 7 - 10 Business Days $43.93

Guess the shipping rates went up. No longer affordable for me so I'll be staying away from Reship in future.

I'm re-writing my (originally bad) review of Reship... simply because I've now placed 3 fairly large orders and they have all arrived in great condition, in a decent amount of time. I "consolidated" them all so they opened up my original packages and got rid of excess packaging... then put everything into ONE box, perfectly organized and packed!

Yes the company charges fees for their services (they ARE a business) - but I wouldn't be able to buy these wonderful items online otherwise... so I have to say I'm pleased overall by this company.

It's not their fault that UPS or DHL etc have their own shipping fees. Just take it all into consideration before you decide you "just must have that item".

Thanks Reship!
