Possibly to order stuff from sites that don't ship to India? haven't checked out the prices yet so not sure how economically viable it is....but just wondering.....

vbhoj74 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Nice service, so now we can shop for anything off amazon or buy.com ? there were some 42 inch LCD 1080p at $800, and some other deals that had 80 to 50% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrmnts mesia Posted December 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 hmm....was just checking out their rates....looks expensive ...and the free account has a 1 pound weight limit!..thats like 1/2kg!! guess thats ok for games. bigger items will be a problem and you'll def have to pay tax for the tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atrmnts mesia Posted December 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 hmm....true....but storage and shipping might be a problem...depending on the type of account we have, they have a limit on the weight of the packages stored...and charge for anything above that weight. think their normal shipping charges are a bit high.....haven't shipped stuff from the US, so some who has might be able to tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoeN Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 ^ ^Unless everyone gets together and arranges a Bulk Order. Ofcourse i dont have a credit limit of 10L... Thats the only way where the shipping cost of these websites gets dramatically reduced to the point that you order like 5 items, both heavy and light stuff, and you make a killing on Customs as well as the price of the item being bought. Yep, i was researching on this aswell, till the point when i noticed that it was wayyyyyy(*1 million) too risky to do it in this country (lack of integrity).
