I am looking for the name of an agency that on-mails from the states to other countries. I remember finding the name of one for an american mother at our local school ( we get a lot of corporate families placed with us ), when she was trying to get children’s clothes sent out here – apparently children’s clothes are incredibly expensive here compared to the states. I am trying to get some shoe lasts on mailed, and we have some australian friends who can probably do it, but I was after the name of the agency, as I wouldn’t want to strain the friendship with frequent on- going requests. I would be grateful for any help with the name of an agency. Thanks, jenny s

Hi Jenny s - you might want to try Mail Boxes Etc. at:
http://www.mbe.com/ps/ms.html
One of the services they provide is mail forwarding. They will probably require that you keep a box there. Then they will also charge you extra to forward items (prices aren't listed you will have to find an individual store to find what they charge and since you're in Australia you may just want to find one in California since flights leave from that direction on their way to you and the postage from there may be (?) less). If you have several friends interested in it, you may be able to go in on it together but you'll likely have to have all their names on the box (you might want to check).
If I think of any other companies that might do it, I'll let you know.
JT
thank you very much - I will look into them. jenny s
