Anyone Used U-Buy to Import Something from USA?

Looking for any views on U-Buy.co.nz from any cheapies - need a product that's only available in USA. I know the shipping is high but comparable shipping on myus.com or Youshop is twice the price of what U-Buy seems to be charging so still much cheaper. Do their prices include GST - my item, shipping and their service fee is under $1k so assume no further customs taxes due but keen to hear any success or horror stories.

    I used to use Opas back before they were taken over by Planet Express, who are pretty well reviewed. Stackry is another, well reviewed, alternative.

      Thanks - yes I've used freight forwarders but u-buy handles the buying from the supplier and shipping. Rather than you having to buy and ship to the forwarder.

        I think Planet Express also offers this as "Shop For Me." Could be worth checking out if you can't get any feedback on U-buy.
