How long does it takes for philpost to deliver my parcel?
Actually it depends on many different circumstances like for example a heavy traffic, a weather condition, the address where you are located and sometimes based on the item to be delivered. For my self experienced where i bought an item from chinese online shopping site last November 9 2015, it arrived manila Philippines on 24th of November and handled or passed to the philpost after the customs screening.
Then after 8 days of waiting a delivery personnel delivered it directly to my included shipping address loacated in cavite and asked to pay P100 for the service and a valid id before he gave me the item. One hundred pesos is really ok than going to their office which needs a bit of work to carry back to home the item and also a bit waste of time if you are too busy person. but sometimes if your item is too heavy or too expensive you need to get your item to their office and ready some amount of money because you will be charged an extra pesoses depending on the value of the item.
So if you are looking to buy some item online and need to be shipped from other country be sure to know that item is free of extra charges so you wont get any problem getting your item.
And for the delivery days of philpost it took me 8 days to receive it im from cavite. So consider your place if you are too far from manila to be longer than mine.
