how to shop on-line from Doha?

What's the easiest way to shop online and get stuff sent over to Qatar once you've bought it? I've just arrived and me and my wife do all of our shopping online... I've heard Aramex are good but don't really know how they work...

We haven't been able to use our shopping genie for a while!

Signing up with Aramex might cost you 130 - 150 Riyals .. youll get two addresses (one in the US & one in the UK) you can use the addresses given to you for online shopping.

Example: The website will send your items to the address in the US, Aramex will ship the items from US address to your Qatari address. Aramex will charge you after delivering your items to Doha(charge depends on the size & weight of the shipment)

Cool! Is it expensive?

Do you shop a lot on line and have it shipped over, or do you find that Doha has most of the stuff you need?

Check out shop and ship with aramex (www.aramex.com)

You will get a mailing adress in the US and UK to ship your stuff too. From there aramex ships it to doha .
