Has anyone used a company that provides a U.S. address to receive online orders and then ships them to Thailand? What was experience and can you recommend one? I need stuff from Amazon, Costco, etc., that they do not ship overseas. Thanks.

I used Stackry for years until I recently started having a family member tranship packages.

Stackry was great. They process everything very fast. They can combine several packages into 1 in order to save costs. They give you several choices of which delivery service to use, such as USPS, FedEx, etc., and they display the costs and shipping timeframes of each.

I highly recommend them.

I've used Shop & Ship in the past with success.

Thanks for v. helpful replies.

Probably a naive question, but how do I know which of these small forwarding companies to trust with my credit card details?

I use Planet Express. They have sales tax free warehousing in Oregon and Florida and can ship duty pre-paid via Fedex.

Some stuff that Amazon will not ship to Thailand can be available on Ebay. Ebay international shipping does not include customs charges like Amazon does. So you may be hit with additional charges when it arrives.

The way some of these sellers talk, sending overseas complicated. All they need is a two or three dollar stamp and an envelope. I am currently having a problem obtaining a few cucumber seeds but I am not going to pay a courier service for a 5$ packet of seeds,

Never used them, but Aramex had a board offering this service of shipping from anywhere to anywhere for "a reasonable fee". Was there for something else and this was displayed in their office. Don't know how they compete on prices.

But there is also a community of Thais in US who use tourist express service... Basically when someone needs something from Thailand, they would reach to family and friends of community there who live in Thailand, to bring (sometimes buy) things over at a fixed fee per kg.

If nothing like this exists among US expats here, maybe you could set up such a scheme yourself?

Aramex owns Shop & Ship.

I use SABUY EXPRESS to regularly ship from Australia --- excellent service.
They also do US.

Thank you, didn't know that :)

Another vote for Stackry. Used them a few years back to buy a couple of tennis racquets that the manufacturer bizarrely refuses to ship from the US to Australia. The process was straightforward, and I now have a US address in case there’s anything else that’s otherwise impossible to buy from America.

A couple of things I failed to mention about Stackry:

It's free

They have several locations throughout the US, which you can choose from. I chose New Hampshire because it has no sales tax and Stackry's location is close to Logan Airport in Boston, so sometimes they ship through there.
