Buying from US when vendor doesn't do international deliveries

[schmee]

I've seen a discontinued fabric I really want from a vendor in the States who doesn't send internationally (although I think meets the ebay criteria for international selling).

Has anyone come across a reputable "middle man" in the States who takes receipt of the item and does the international despatch?

Thank you.

provided you have plenty of good feedback message seller and ask them if they will sell offer to do the research on couriers as if lots of fabric will be more than 2kg airmail offer to pay full fedex or ups charge for tracked so the seller will feel safe posting not using a possibly cheaper but more unreliable courier

be aware you will need to pay customs duty when it arrives, don't ask them to understate value or mark as gift it makes you look dodgy

Thank you - that's really helpful.

The customs duty also comes with an admin fee. I am overseas and sold a skateboard to someone in the UK. The admin plus the duty ended up costing him nearly US$100, about the same as the skateboard.
