  1. Re:Hmmm by sonamchauhan · · Score: 2 · on Valve's Gabe Newell On Piracy: It's Not a Pricing Problem

    Yes, and the reason retailers do not reprice, even months after the 'fluctuation' is basic greed. Customers are adapting though.

    I got a http://myus.com/ account, which consolidates my US online purchases into a single package couriered to my Australian address.

    o - and I just got this link from a friend... myus.com - a "package forwarding service for consumers around the world."

  3. Re:No, it's $594 if you are in Europe by rvw · · Score: 3, Informative · on Google To Sell Truly Open Android Dev Phone

    There are special websites (like MyUS) that offer postal addresses in the US, and then forward the item to your address. This is probably a lot cheaper than ordering directly.

  4. How to buy an iPhone from Europe? by xDCDx · · Score: 1 · on Apple Gives $100 Store Credit To iPhone Customers

    Does anybody know any method I can use to inexpensively buy an iPhone from Europe?

    Ebay is filled with overpriced auctions, by people trying to monetize their iPhone unlocking skills. I just want one brand new phone, at Apple store price.

    I've also been checking mail forwarding companies like http://www.myus.com/ and http://www.usabox.com/ but they all require you to set up an expensive account that does not pay out for just one gadget.

    Does anybody know any other company that does cheap one-time packet forwarding from USA to Europe? Any other hint?

    Globalized world my ass.

  5. For anyone NOT going to the US... by Dot.Com.CEO · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Getting A Laptop With The Low U.S. Dollar
    and still looking to benefit from the extra-low US dollar, I wholeheartidly and unreservedly suggest they try a forwarding agent. I use MyUS myself and they have flawlessly delivered everything I ordered from the US whereever I happened to be. It's great for these bargains that only seem to available to US citizens - I got an extra-cheap Zaurus from amazon.com last month for what is half the price of its price in Europe.

    It goes without saying I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just an extremely happy customer. The inicial cost might appear steep but it's offset by your first major spend, really.

  6. Try forwarding services by tot · · Score: 1 · on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web?
    I have never used these, but there are mail forwarding services like USAbox or Access USA that give you an US address and forward the packages to you.

    See also International Mail Forwarding Advisor.

  7. Mailbox in the US by kiowa · · Score: 1 · on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web?

    You need to get yourself a mailbox in the US. There are some companies dealing with this. You just set up yourself an "virtual" mailbox with them and have your orders delivered to that mailbox. They will then send it to Hungary or whatever.

    Well, if you'd live in Norway there is JetCarrier which a friend of mine speaks so warmly about.

    Also there is Access USA which sends all over the world, but they do seem a bit pricey.

  8. Re:Brokers? by Cecil · · Score: 4, Informative · on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web?

    As mentioned elsewhere in the comments, this company seems to cater exactly to people like you. They're a bit pricy though, by the looks of it, unless you're buying a lot of stuff.

  9. Re:Sounds like a market opportunity to me by follower-fillet · · Score: 5, Informative · on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web?

    Someone's already doing it:

    http://www.myus.com/

    (I have not used them, just remembered seeing a company that does it, and a Google search revealed this one.)
