Korean products — from fashion and cosmetics to electronics and lifestyle goods — are some of the most sought-after items in Singapore. However, many Korean websites either do not ship internationally or impose high courier fees that discourage shoppers. That’s where Buy&Ship’s proxy shopping service comes in.
With Buy&Ship, Singaporeans can now shop directly from Korean websites, have purchases delivered to a local warehouse, and then shipped seamlessly to Singapore. This guide explains how the Buy&Ship Korean proxy shopping service works, the benefits it offers, and tips to maximize your shopping experience.
Why Use Proxy Shopping for Korean Products?
- Access Exclusive Korean Sites – Many popular platforms like Musinsa, W Concept, and Gmarket restrict overseas shipping.
- Save on Costs – Buying directly from Korea often means lower prices compared to resellers in Singapore.
- Shop Limited Editions – Exclusive drops and collaborations are usually only available in Korea.
- Consolidate Multiple Orders – Instead of paying shipping for each parcel, you can combine them into one.

2. Find Your Desired Product
Browse Korean websites such as:
- Musinsa (무신사) for streetwear and sneakers.

3. Submit the Product Link

4. Approval & Payment
Buy&Ship’s team reviews the order, confirms availability, and sends you a payment request in Singapore dollars (SGD).
5. Buy&Ship Orders on Your Behalf
Once paid, Buy&Ship purchases the item directly from the Korean website and delivers it to their Korea warehouse.
6. Consolidation & International Shipping
When all your orders arrive at the sorting centre, you can choose to consolidate multiple parcels into one. This helps reduce international shipping costs significantly.
7. Delivery to Singapore
Your shipment is processed, and you’ll receive it at your doorstep in Singapore, securely packed and trackable.
