Hi again everyone and, again, please forgive me if this is redundant.
I'll be moving to Cambodia from the United States in about four weeks, and a friend of mine who lives in Panama recommends using a service that forwards his shipping from U.S. sources for him, so that the source sees a domestic U.S. address.
I'm probably not explaining that very clearly, but the idea is that if he buys something in the U.S. on eBay (for instance), his address shows up as
Joe Blow
3131 Broward Boulevard, Dept 4175
Deerfield Beach, FL 33071
The recipient at this address then looks up "Dept 4175," and forwards his package to Panama for him, for a fee.
I found such a service to Cambodia -- it's called MyUS.com -- but the google reviews for them aren't great and seem to be deteriorating. Does anyone have any experience with such a service, either MyUS or a different one?
Again, sorry if this is (painfully-?) redundant.
Anyone used a forwarding service for shipping?

I have been using MyUs for the last 3-4 years and had plenty of stuff shipped. Never had a problem.

I also use myus.com and they are fantastic.
I used a different service called shipito for a while, but they are thieving overpriced pricks who should be avoided.

I use a florida forwarding address for all my amazon buys. Works like a charm.

Which service do you use? I seem to have two endorsements for MyUS.com so far in this thread; do you use them as well, or a different vendor?ricecakes wrote:I use a florida forwarding address for all my amazon buys. Works like a charm.

It worked okay-ish, when he remembered to place the orders he was given money for.
Very nice fellow though and honest, just head like a sieve.
With myus you cut out the middleman that he was. Much faster, and much easier to consolidate multiple items in Florida at your leisure.

There is actually a time limit before you need to ship items to avoid storage fees. But yes, I have been very happy with their services. Make sure the value of shipped items is below USD 2,000 as otherwise you will have to got to customs and spend a day or two to get your stuff out.Jackal wrote:It worked okay-ish, when he remembered to place the orders he was given money for.
