How GorillaShip Works

 

GorillaShip was built for collectors, hobbyists, and international buyers who love shopping in the United States but don’t want to overpay for shipping. With more than 15 years of experience handling sports trading cards, memorabilia, and collectible items, GorillaShip makes it easy to buy, store, and ship your purchases worldwide from one secure location. Whether you live in the UK, Europe, Asia, or anywhere else, GorillaShip gives you full control over your U.S. shipments — from sign-up to delivery — while helping you save money through professional package consolidation.

Step 1: Sign Up Online at www.GorillaShip.co.uk

Getting started with GorillaShip is quick, simple, and completely online. Visit GorillaShip.co.uk and create your free account in minutes. Once registered, you’ll be assigned your very own GorillaShip U.S. address, which acts as your personal delivery hub inside the United States. Use this address whenever you shop at eBay, COMC, Whatnot, Goldin, Walmart, Target, or any U.S. retailer. Every package sent to that address automatically links to your GorillaShip account, allowing our team to safely receive, document, and store your items until you’re ready to ship them home.

Members can log in anytime to see live package updates, arrival photos, and storage status through their Dropbox. No matter how many items you buy, GorillaShip’s system keeps everything organized and connected — ideal for collectors who regularly purchase singles, wax boxes, or memorabilia across multiple platforms.

Step 2: Ship Your Purchases to GorillaShip

Once you have your GorillaShip address, simply enter it as the shipping destination at checkout for any of your U.S. purchases. Each time a package arrives, it is scanned, photographed, and securely added to your account inventory. You’ll receive real-time notifications so you always know what’s arrived. Your items remain stored safely in our temperature-controlled facility until you decide to ship them out.

Because GorillaShip specializes in collectibles, we understand the importance of condition, packaging quality, and accurate tracking. Every card, slab, or sealed box is handled by professionals who treat it like their own collection. Whether you’re building full card sets, sourcing grails, or buying bulk from U.S. auctions, your purchases are protected from the moment they arrive.

Step 3: Consolidate, Save, and Ship Home

When you’re ready, you can consolidate all your packages into one export shipment directly through your GorillaShip dashboard. Our team combines your purchases into a single, well-protected box — maximizing safety and minimizing costs. This process dramatically reduces your international shipping expenses compared to sending multiple parcels individually.

You can choose your preferred courier, including DHL, UPS, FedEx, USPS, or other international options. Each shipment includes $50 of complimentary GorillaShip coverage, and you can purchase additional third-party insurance through our trusted partner, ShipSmart, for higher-value consignments (up to $2,500 per shipment). Tracking numbers are provided for every export so you can follow your shipment in real time from our U.S. facility to your doorstep abroad.

Step 4: Enjoy Full Control and Peace of Mind

Every GorillaShip customer benefits from a fully transparent process — no hidden fees, no unnecessary delays, and no complicated paperwork. You can manage your shipments 24/7, request special handling, declare customs values accurately, and receive proactive communication from our support team. We’re collectors too, and we know how much your cards and memorabilia mean to you.

Our goal at GorillaShip is to make international hobby logistics as easy and affordable as possible. From your first purchase to your consolidated delivery, everything happens under one secure, collector-friendly platform designed specifically for the global collectibles community.
