Thank you SSS for a fantastic service. Ten days from the quotation to the parcel in my hands. The goods arrived from America in perfect condition, and I was updated regarding its status all the time. I will definitely keep you number close by.
Thanks very much for the great service, especially after you mentioned the small quoting mishap and you took it upon yourself to complete the deal regardless.
You offer a great service and I will happily deal with you again !!
Thanks Scott, just received my UK goods. I can highly recommend SS, always very quick to reply to any enquiries and delivery on time as promised.
Finally got my belated birthday gift from myself to myself.
Sent a request late last night and got a reply in literally less than 5 minutes with a price on a Braun Shaver which Amazon won’t ship to SA.
I asked him for a couple of other prices as well and each time he replied in no time.
I placed a order for the Braun Shaver with him and made payment earlier today, so far I have received excellent service, thank you!
Excellent service! Step by step communication. I will definitely use Scott’s Shipping Services again. They exceeded my expectations. Well done.
I’m very happy with the service they provided me I received my order in perfect condition and customers support was very helpful I was able to change shipping as soon as I received the email that they had got my shipment . And they keep there word about not hidden fee . I will definitely be using them again
Great way to get items from ebay delivered to your door in South Africa in around two weeks. All courier and customs duties are included so there are no unexpected surprises. I will definitely use them again.
Received my mac book pro internal cable from the states that i ordered, and it arrived in no time and in perfect condition will definitely be doing more business like this!!.
Fantastic service. Order arrived within 12 days from London into my hands. Constantly updates and good communication, very impressed.
A quick shout out to Scott’s Shipping Services. I ordered a usb converter from Amazon through SSS. Deal went smooth as butter and comms were great. Thanks for the awesome service !
Great service from this shipping company. My item was stuck in customs for weeks but no fault of theirs. They have always responded to my mails and provided updates. Will definitely use them again.
Package received, keep up the good work!
The communication from his side is on the ball, never wondered where my goods were.
Items received from Amazon UK via Scott’s shipping, as promised. I gladly recommend using his services!
I feel I must openly thank SSS for the service he apparently provided to someone I know.
This person wanted to buy a phone for someone else and I directed him to Scott’s Shipping Services but explained to him that the guy is on holiday in the UK.
Scott apparently answered the guy so quickly and professionally, even whilst on holiday which is very impressive.
Scott, thanks very much for sorting the guy out with the phone, really appreciate it and apologies for him bothering you while you were on holiday.
Placed an order on the 24 Feb , order received on the 9 March. Thanks Scotts for such an awesome service, all items were correctly supplied and in working order.
I have now placed my second order with Scott’s Shipping Services, great service!
I did mention elsewhere that I received the valves that SSS imported from the USA for me but perhaps should mention it here as well. The valves arrived safely and within two weeks of ordering them. My thanks, Mr. Rapid Delivery!
I have used Scott’s Shipping Services to bring equipment from Eastern Europe and the USA. In both cases, the service was great, as swift as importing can be and they kept me up to date every step of the way. A great service to deal with.
Another package arrived safe and sound this morning, admittedly, the contents are a piece of Schiit but it will be fun……thanks
Thanks again SSS. Always a brilliant service!!
I have ordered a few times over the years.
Scott’s Shipping are professionals. Everything including taxes etc are included in the quote.
Delivery to your home or office.
Definitely takes any worries you have from ordering overseas, away.
It was a lengthy process with a few hick-ups, out of the control of Scott’s Shipping Services….but it was well worth the wait. My shipment was delivered in excellent condition & as promised. I would really recommend the services of this company…..friendly & swift replies to all my emails & super communication. Couldn’t have done it without them. WELL DONE SSS! I will surely make use of your services again.
Absolutely stoked with the service received by SSS. Scott and Co helped me ship a 300KG vending machine over from China and they handled everything, and last friday I received the machine after much anticipation. Would definitely trust them to handle my next shipment and recommend their service to anyone who needs a reliable shipping company!
Great service. Product delivered quicker than expected.
Product failed after 2 months, still under warranty. Sent photos and SSS arranged a replacement and had it sent through at only shipping costs.
Happy with service. Good communication. Recommended.
I received my Mi Box today ordered using Scott’s service. The process was painless and hassle-free. I’ll definitely be recommending him to people
Quick response
Very simple, excellent service. The only negative I can say is they don’t answer the phone, but are generally quick to reply by email. But overall a very good experience
Can definitely recommend Scott’s Shipping Services. Professional service and kept me updated through the whole process. Thanks to them I now have a set of awesome hiking bags not available anywhere in SA
Excellent service , straight forward time and time again SSS has delivered. I would highly recommend.
Quick, friendly and professional service. I’ve made use of SSS a few times now and have never had anything but a great experience.
Great service !
Thanks again Scott’s Shippiong Services and as always, great service Never thought I’d start getting imported items but you make it sooooo easy.
Excellent service from start to finish. I ordered an obscure remote control unit which I could get nowhere but in the US – Scotts handled everything and kept in touch every step of the way – all I had to do was sit back and wait . Delivery time was quicker than expected too. Will definitely use Scotts again!
GREAT SERVICE!!!! This is the company to work with if you want to import something hassle free, they deliver as promised- very fast to your door, excellent communication, and no hidden costs! FANTASTIC will use them again in the future.
Swift, amazing service, this was just a pilot to test the process and it works amazingly well. you have gained a customer.
I made use of Scotts to get a motor for my Vorwerk vacuum cleaner. Although Amazon.de do ship to SA, they dropped me, but I did get a refund. Scott got it for me for half the price of what Vorwerk SA sells them for. Great service with regular updates. I can highly recommend him. Remember, you might pay more for shipping with him, but it is guaranteed. No SAPO or crap like that. You will get what you are looking for.
Hi SSS
Thank you for my Mini DSP that you kindly imported for myself
Much appreciated
Excellent service from Stott’s Shipping Service, sourcing an unusual piece of photographic equipment from Finland.
My first order also went very smoothly. Scott kept me updated with every move…
Employed SSS a bunch of times now. Great service they offer with great communication! I can recommend their service to everyone with confidence.
Had a local delivery using Scott’s service …. really efficient and no-nonsense. Great stuff.
I used Scott’s Shipping a while back to get something off Amazon US into SA. Was a painfree and stressfree experience.
Can definitely recommend using him if you want to get something into the country.
Scotts Shipping is brilliant. Quick response to quotes and very helpful with queries. Delivery was super fast. Thank you.
