Best things to buy from America

Hey guys, short and sweet I'm looking to buy some eliquid for my ecig in Australia from a USA store.
2 questions:
1) has anyone had experience with shopmate by auspost? Its quite cheap but any problems?
2) what else could I buy from America that I just can't get from Australia or is way too overpriced here?
Cheers

      And the inverse seasons lets you buy clearance stock.

    Clothes and shoes. If you have a female spouse, then probably nicer brands of makeup and skincare products. I know MAC lipsticks that are sold in Myer here cost AUD$36, but in America are sold for USD$16.

  • Have read somewhere that the Aust Post forwarding service is expensive. Favourite mail forwarders seem to be 'MyUS' and 'Shipito' but there is a thread somewhere if you search that will give you loads of others.

    Clothes are cheap, particularly as the seasons are different and also because some of the brands we consider 'designer' are more run of the mill over there. Calvin Klein, Timberland and 'Hilfiger' and even to an extent 'RL Polo' have big outlets at all of the outlet malls and you can get massive discounts on what you pay here.

    I have bought loads of specialty stuff for my hobbies like ski and cycling clothes and equipment. Postage can kill the deal especially with the AUD slipping against the greenback. Stuff like GoreTex jackets, merino jumpers etc can be a fraction of the cost locally.
