Using Middle Man Websites for US only purchases

[Deactivated] on 27/08/2011 - 22:54

Hi All,

I have been eyeing off an alienware m11x for around 3 years, and now I have spotted that alieware.com is selling the i3 model for $799 ($270 off normal US price), the au model is $1499.

just wondering of the best sites to use when having something delivered to a US address then reforwarded. Or anything that I should be made aware of before I leap ahead.

then again, anything similar at a better price would also be appreciated.

Thanks,

Modokun

    but i always find postage to oz from us expensive…got told off once at a US Post office…"we dont use snail mail anymore, everything is shippped by air so its pricey" … i guess that's just the way it is….

    there's a few… priceusa will guarantee you your package but slightly more expensive and a bit slow.

    Avoid Viaddress. I'm out hundreds because of their unprofessional service.
    Missing items, overcharge on shipping, Impossible to get on the phone (35+ attempts in the wee hours of the morning over several months) Generic email replies, you name it!
    Price USA and Shipito are better, but still not perfect. Also keep in mind you may need to fill out a USPS Form 1583
