hey recently i tried shopping on aeropostal.com and i'm shipping my items thru vpost usa.
i chose this mode of shipping as aeropostal was one of vpost recommended shopping sites.
however, aeropostal has cancelled my order and i cannot get vpost to order them for me it seems as their concierge services are only applicable to certain sites.

I quite agree that Viaddress.com at
http://www.viaddress.com offers the lowest shipping rates to forward packages from the US to other countries. Anyone can do a comparison of the shipping rates and find out that Viaddress is the best option if you’re planning to shop from US merchants.
The fact that they don’t have a Setup fee or a monthly membership fee, had convinced me to use them for my last purchase from the states, and I’m quite satisfied with the speed of the processing of my packages.
I decided to follow them on twitter at
http://twitter.com/viaddress and I got hold of some pretty generous coupons that I used to get some pretty darn good discounts.
