Posted this in Road Buying and got nowhere.. maybe the Commuting hive has more worldly experience?

Has anyone used any of those US companies that provide a local shipping address in the States, to which you have products delivered so they can on-ship them to you? This gets around the online business constraint of not shipping outside there distributor territory.

Any good or bad recommendations welcome!

    ^ No, none in a position to do this anyway, since all the 'Merkins I know are working somewhere else ATMO..

    Luckily, I have mate sin Canada and The USA and part of my team is in Texas, so, never had to forward on....

    Many years ago, I used 'Transit Express' to forward systems that were built in Israel to Morocco - you cannot ship direct to Morocco from Israel, so I had to transit stuff through the USA to change the paperwork and platform build details. Cheeky, but it worked out.

    On the MTB General forum there is an ex-pat British guy that lives in LA, maybe you can PM him and he will help you out.
