    i love online shopping, but alot of sites dont ship internaionally, or charge crazy prices....

    i've heard their are companies that give you and american address and allow you to combine shippings and charge you less.

    any one have use these or know of these, and how the import duty works then??

    thanks for time

    Sorry but you're very unlikely to get it shipped for less. Keep in mind that these services are not doing it out of the good of their heart, they will charge you a handling fee (any where from $5 to $50) AND the shipping fee depending on which courier they use. The most common reason to use them is for shops that ONLY ships to a US address to be able to order something, not to reduce teh shipping costs.
