Shipping - Forwarding Services

[pgrahmm]

Which one do you use - and why? They provide an "in country" address for purchases and then forward them on - at a fee of course.....

I'm from the US and asking about it for myself....

But I'm sure it's probably a good resource to have in/from other countries as well.....

US companies require a 1538 to be completed and notorized to handle anything from USPS. Other couriers doesnt matter, but if you use "couriers" we all know what happens when they get to Thailand.

You get your own set of addresses and can use different cities based on your needs. The one in Oregon, for example, has zero sales tax for your purchases.

You can choose USPS, FedEx, DHL and others. Of course I use USPS.

A bit of hoop jumping to get it set up (upload ID's, notarized forms, etc, but after that, smooth as glass.

In my experience, worst company customer service if it has ever been my misfortune to encounter.

I wouldnt use them if they were FREE and wouldnt recommend them to my worst enemy.

Experiences vary I suppose.

I've had no problems with them.
