Hi..
Would anybody in the US be willing to get me RareMinerals full size in Clear and ship to Australia? pretty pleaaseee...
I can pay by CC or paypal, or we can arrange some other method of payment. I've been trying to order it through Amazon.com they would not ship to Oz. |

If you order another item to get yourself over the $75 mark, Sephora will give you free shipping within the US. You can then buy it via Amazon.com using ShopTheStates (www.shopthestates.com). So you get it shipped for free to your ShopTheStates address and they forward the parcel to you to Australia. They charge standard (and exact) shipping rates plus about $5 for the handling. Works out very well! |

No, but it means that when I finally cave I will know how to get it I've used ShopTheStates on and off for a few years. I haven't used them recently but they are a good service. |

I live in the UK, but can also heartily recommend ShoptheStates. |

WOW ... that's really cool! There's been so many times in the past where I wanted to order something, but couldn't because I didn't live in the US. What a great service! I'm going to bookmark the page for the future incase it ever happens again. |

Can I ask you Mabsy, have you had any problems with ShopTheStates at all? It's just that my friend once bought a whole heap of Stila stuff from Sephora & was given several free gifts & samples with her order. But when she received her parcel, it appeared it had been opened & then re-sealed (very badly too I might add ) & all of her freebies were missing! I have also heard of a few other similar incidences on other forums |

STS do open and repack your parcel - that's part of their service. I have never had anything go missing though, all the Sephora samples were always included and the parcels were always very well packed. Could it have been opened and resealed by customs? |

I've not had a problem either, thankfully.
I've also used their buying service, for when US companies don't accept UK credit cards. I asked them to use a discount code that I was given and they were happy to do that for me, too. |

Make sure that you have a "proper" email address. They have had trouble before with sending to some ISPs or with their emails being treated like spam by other ISPs. They are usually very quick to reply, if you don't hear in a few days then maybe use another email address and enquire? |
