  • 枫下家园 / 生活杂事 / 【分享】US Shipping Address
    • If you use UPS, then no need for a shipping address: find a UPS stuffed store (i.e., with people) in the city you go, tell the shop to ship to this UPS store; Instruct UPS to "hold for pickup"; Go there and get it. FREE.
      UPS will hold it for you for at least 5 bus. days. After that you pay a small fee.

      Of course, we need to consider the shipping fee and the address-service together. In my cases, the shipping is always "free", using UPS.

      In the ship-to address, just type one more line: Hold for Pickup. They'll then store it for you.

      You can also change the ship-to address to another store if you later decide to go somewhere else and again, free.

      This is what I did when I order online, and when I need to travel to US on vacation.

      There're the same free holding service available from any of the couriers (like Fedex). Just make sure the store is open when you get there.
      • Thanks. 我主要是在REI 网购,如果寄到加拿大,他们都是使用Canada Post. 没别的选择。
    • 谢谢LZ分享. 不过跑那么远去取, 浪费很多的时间哦. 现在油价也贵, 是不是邮寄更合算呢?
      • 俺在订货时肯定要考虑到物品的价格、汇率成本、人工成本、车耗成本,以及自己的需求,如果不划算的话,就不会舍近求远了。
      • 有没有公司,提供美国的shipping地址,然后寄到加拿大?GST PST可以代收或向加拿大邮政支付?
        • myus.com
          • thanks.
    • I will use this service in the future as so many stuff in ebay are free shipping in US only. The US address (to pickup) will definitely worth the headache of driving and border cross.
    • "比如单反相机等要慎重". 如何慎重?要交关税, GST, PST?

    • try myus.com, you get a us address for shopping and the company will ship your goods to canada. checked the rate and seems to be cheaper than picking up personally.
