TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.Freight forwarders - using them to import from OS?
Wed 20 Oct, 2010 4:53 pm
At the moment we have a very good exchange rate and buying gear from the states compared to Australian stores can deliver savings upwards of 30-40% prior to shipping costs. The only issue is that because a lot of brands have distribution agreements with various stores they will not allow American stores to ship to Australia. However they will/can ship to any address in the states and that includes freight forwarders. So does anyone know of any freight forwarders in the states or UK? Has anyone tried to do this before. I am on a Motorbike forum that do this for Motorbikes but they do shipping containers rather than freight forwarding.
