Costco is a membership warehouse club and the US’s second biggest retailer. It was founded in 1976 and quickly grew into the largest American membership club chain with 474 warehouses across the country and 197 more overseas. The selection that Costco offers is enormous: furniture, things for the home, hardware, clothing, tires, electronics, appliances, food and many other products under various trademarks and its own brand Kirkland Signature. Whatever you need, you can find it in one place and at a discounted price. Costco is not the price winner in all categories, but for many products they offer the lowest prices in the US that cannot be beaten even by another discount retailer Walmart. To make life easier, you can get your purchases in bulk and save on it. Among the things that are worth buying at Costco, consider laptops and desktops: you will get not only low prices, but also a 90-day return policy, tech support and a two-year guarantee. Membership house club means that Costco products are only available to their members both in physical locations and online. Membership costs $55 per year in the US, but it’s worth the cost since you can save much more due to low prices. Elite Membership costs $110 and gives 2% cash back rewards. In UK one can purchase Online Subscription that enables customers to shop online without 5% surcharge for non-members, though they cannot shop in actual warehouses. Costco doesn’t offer international delivery, but it has divisions in 8 countries across the globe: UK, Canada, Mexico, Spain, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Australia. If your country isn’t in the list, you can still shop at Costco US by employing international mail forwarding. Smart shoppers from all countries have been using such forwarding companies for online shopping at Amazon, eBay, Nordstrom, Walmart and other retailers. Apart from the shipping address in the US and competitive shipping fees, package forwarders offer additional services like consolidation of the parcels, their storage and repacking. Some freight forwarders provide the service of the purchase assistant or shopping consultant and even hotel services. The postal address that the package forwarder will give you should be shown as a shipping and billing address at Costco’s website (since they require the billing address to be US only). It may happen that Costco can refuse to ship your order to the US mailing address or cannot accept the payment – then the only option will be the help of the purchase assistant. If you’re looking for a fast international delivery at low cost, employ LiteMF – a mail forwarding company working with customers from all countries and offering the US shipping address for free. In addition, you will get free unlimited storage, free repacking and consolidation, and the opportunity to shop at any US stores and eBay auctions.
