hey

I've been spending hours trying to find somewhere to buy an audio interface online but almost none ship internationally.
do you know of any who does?
 
To what country? Most manufacturers limit where internet vendors in other countries can ship to, to protect the dealers in those countries.

Where you from?
 
You could always find someone you trust elsewhere to buy something for you, then ship it. :)

well I got mom back at Minnesota but I don't want to bother her with stupid music making nonsense music gear :) she hates it when I waste my time on anything but getting married
 
I understand the mom thing for sure...

If you really want something from the states, I can get it for you and ship it. There are many here who would vouch for my honesty. I just sent Rami an interface before payment cuz I feel I can trust him, and he can really use it now.

Just decide on what you want, we will figure out the shipping cost, then PayPal the total to me. I will then email you the receipts for the product, as well as a picture of the postage and customs form for tracking.

I will absolutely vouch for Jimmy. Met him once and he is the type of person you immediately like as well as trust.

Back to the topic, doesn't Sweetwater ship internationally??? Looks like you have to call them to verify which items can ship international. Sweetwater has the best post-sale customer service of any online vendor out there. You should give them a try before seeking alternate options.

Good luck.
 
+1 to Sweetwater customer care. I even got a call once from one of their sales reps, about a boom stand/cable combo for $20. Told him I would have banned him if it were in this forum, but was such a good deal, I bought two and told him it was 'good' spam. :)

I was thinking of them, too. Also, some of the sellers on Amazon will ship internationally, and you can sometimes find good stuff on there.
 
Getting stuff shipped from the US through customs in Israel can be a REAL pain, be forewarned.
 
ok, asking around local folks , seems there is already solutions like the ones Jimmy suggested, companies that give you an physical american address to ship to, and from that address they ship to Israel. the rates are reasonable and there is insurance.
I used one of those companies and waiting for what I bought to arrive here.
thanks Jimmy for the idea and the offer!

now, to help anyone else that wants to ship to my location:
the following do NOT ship to Israel:
zzounds.com
americanmusical.com
musiciansfriend.com
bestbuy.com
geartree.com
bananasmusic.com
samedaymusic.com


audiomidi.com DOES ship to Israel. (I can't recommend them because I never heard of them, but they seem nice on email :) )

about sweetwater, here is what I found:
http://www.sweetwater.com/help/shipping-delivery.php#5

and yes, some on Amazon ship to Israel but not many and it's a headache because you can't tell until you enter your shipping address at checkout.
only then does it give an message: "there is has been a slight problem , this product won't ship to your country" (you call that a "slight" problem?)
eBay also doesn't have many that ship to Israel , especially if you are looking to buy used gear like me and you ain't buying from eBay stores but individuals that are upgrading their gear.
