Need someone in the US who would receive purchased items and redirect to India for a fee

Hi,

I am currently based in India on a long term contract. Often times, I miss out on attractive gears on eBay USA just because the sellers are not willing to ship overseas. Hence, I am looking for one or two persons / contacts who would receive the purchased items at their offices / homes and redirect them to India. Earlier, I had two such senior persons doing that job but because of age they are sadly kind of in debilitating conditions.

1. Any such contact information will be highly appreciated.
2. No bashing, please.
3. Kindly keep to the point.
4. Heartfelt thanks in advance to all respondents.
Kind regards, Mark

Aramex Shop&Ship provides an excellent service. I use them for all my US and Canadian purchases. Very reasonable shipping costs

They are in Sarasota and is registered as a tax-free centre. 

Also use them for UK purchases - save 20% VAT and in Europe 21% VAT

Just a follow up - If you buy through eBay, the tax is automatically removed before payment. 

MyUs.com is another service available - also in Sarasota. Also great services

Just an FYI, I worked at eBay for a couple years in what is essentially the returns department and if you freight forward any purchase you lose all buyer protections. The seller could send you a bag of junk and you will not be able to return the item or get a refund.

We always checked for that and would deny/close buyer return requests all the time for forwarding.
