Hey people who've got life in Korea figured out!

I want to buy something, it's not at Emart. It's not on Gmarket. What's my next move? Do you know of any good sites that ship overseas? What would you do?

This isn't for a particular item, but a variety of things I can't find here or on Gmarket.

Thanks in advance!

Chet J. W.

I cannot speak highly enough about iherb.com

Shipping to Korea is quick and cheap!

Use discount code gef798 at checkout for a $5 discount.

Well, for one I want to buy a book for collecting stamps. I might also want to buy some t-shirts. Basically, whatever I can't find on Gmarket. I'm looking for a one stop shop of sorts.

Shipping from amazon.com is probably too expensive right...?

Many sellers on ebay do too. Some won't ship to korea though.

Be careful shipping stuff to Korea, as it might get caught up at customs and you'll have to pay duty on them. The way to circumvent this is to have the package delivered to someone at home, then they take the tags off and put in another box and then send.
