Did anyone buy items from bestbuy.com and had them delivered to Qatar through Aramex? If so, how?
When I try to buy stuff from bestbuy.com and have them delivered to Aramex, they cancel my order because they claim that they do not send ship items to freight forwarders. But Aramex have them on their partner list. Why would they if they if best buy can't even deliver to them?
After spending a few hours comparing the shipping rates for all the package forwarding companies mentioned in this forum and other forums on the web, I found out that Viaddress.com at http://www.viaddress.com offers the lowest shipping rates according to the shipping calculators on all those sites.
Their Package forwarding service is actually FREE !, with NO set up fees and NO monthly membership fees and they also offer FREE Concierge Service!!! While other companies charge you 5% to 15% commission fee. It also says on their website http://www.viaddress.com that they have the biggest Personal shopper service on Ebay.com in the US.
Well… All of these good points convinced me to try them… and I’m glad I did...
I have used them to shop from Ebay in the US and on other couple of US sites that didn't ship outside the US and I was able to save a lot on shipping by combining all my boxes in one large box for FREE! You can do this by using the package consolidation tool in your account area on Viaddress.com.
Bro,
Try this

add the the assigned U.S. address as your secondary address in your visa/mastercard. Works fine with me.
Cheers,
I have contacted Aramex and this is what they said:
Kindly note that if the supplier refused to deliver the shipment to a freight forwarders then there is nothing we can do even the website is listed in our website.
As for Best Buy themselves, I found this thread in their forums:

As the guy said, Aramex has Best Buy on their list (http://www.aramex.com/shopandship/my_favourite_links.aspx)why would they do that if they wont accept to deliver there?
I'm assuming based on your comment that you are a registered user in ARAMEX.
And what was the address you entered in BESTBUY site for delivering the goods purchased??
Did you try contacting ARAMEX for clarification??
Did you try contacting BESTBUY for clarification??
So far I have made several purchases from US and had them delivered to my ARAMEX account/addres in the States without problems.
Double Check with ARAMEX for details and precise info.
