Newegg.com ordering...
By coelacanth •
I have setup a mailbox on Shop&Ship with Aramex and is ready to order via Newegg when i noticed that the Billing and Shipping Address should be the same in order for them to place your order. I am using CBQ Visa, and of course, my Billing Address is in Doha. Had anybody tried ordering online and used this service (shop&ship)? If so, what did you do? Do i need to contact the bank and add my Aramex mailbox as part of the billing address? Ordering online is FAR MORE cheaper than getting it from here, and the charges are reasonable (QR70/kg). Anyone who can help me?
thanks.
I bought an nvidia shield from newegg.com and it shipped to qatar in 6 days. The charges were inclusive of import duty(if any). No need to shop and ship. Newegg ships directly by ups
Thanks guys...i compared the prices from Amazon and Newegg, and there's like $10 difference in most of the items i checked (Amazon being the more expensive). Another question for Vignale, when you shop and your order gets shipped to Qatar, do they charge you extra besides the QR35/half kilo, like customs fee and all? A friend of mine was telling me that they were sent a CD once (promotional CD) via Aramex and they are being asked to pay QR400 for customs fee.
Any thoughts/inputs on this? I decided to just go with Amazon, to lessen the hassle.
maaverix, it is true that you get things from Amazon UK, faster than from Amazon US, but it is only 3-4 days difference at worst. And the price is probably 25-50% higher from UK than the US
Try to find the same product through amazon. Also some one told me that if you order through amazon uk you are likely to receive the product faster than amazon.com due to the closeness of UK compared to USA.
Or else you can always mail to newegg through their Contact Us and they might be more than willing to help you out.
Visit the Aramex office in Doha to enquire about it. You have to deposit the money in advance for it to be available in the CC.
You cannot do that... Have tried for years.
Never heard about an aramex cc, checked their site and they don't mention it. (I'm not sure how you would pay for that card)
Aramex also issues you with VISA card which has the billing address same as your shipping address, Enquire at Aramex for the VISA Card.
I use Shop and Ship, but choose Companies where I can choose to use a different Shipping Address than my Credit Card Address. www.Amazon.com is one of them
