Hi,

There used to be a local company 1world2shop.com which took orders for shipping to Spore from companies in the USA which do not ship internationally.

I know of US-based companies which provide similar kind of service but their fees are exhorbitant. Is there a cheaper alternative to this?

TIA.
 

Factoring in shipping costs, I believe most photo equipment will be about the same price as local. Unless you have friend there can buy and bring back for you, otherwise better to buy local with local warranty and support local economy!!

Actually, I have in mind equipment that cant be found locally.

have you tried it? how was the service?

Personally, I haven't, and neither have I known anyone who has tried it. But one of their partners is StarHub, so at least there's a local company to go after should any problems arise. Most of their listed vendors are reputable companies as well.

Prices are pretty competitive, and they will tell you exactly the price (includes shipping) that you'll have to pay in Sing dollars.

Try www.douwantit.com

I had used their service once recently. When ordering at one of the stores they represent, it was stated that the item was on back-order, but still I decided to give it a try. My credit card was charged soon after in USD. Then later, I grew tired of waiting and decided to cancel the order. My plastic was credited back the exact amount the following day. I guess this goes to show the efficiency and reliability of the company. The only thing I lost was at the exchange rate conversion with my card company. So consider and reconsider before using the service, otherwise think they should be OK. And go read their FAQ for the company's policy.
 

For those who buys ALOT of stuff from US, or a group who wants to share, you can try this mail forwarding service :

http://www.myus.com/

Basically you get a US mailing address where you can ship your stuff to. You can then consolidate the stuff and ship back to singapore in a box. Pretty ex though, hence my initial comment...
