Here's another list:
I know Amazon ships some books, but everything interesting is probably America, or AFO only, if that. Specifically the Sonic Boom Alarm clock and most electronics. (Anyone know where the hard of hearing go to buy alarm clocks in Korea?)
So where to go on the Internet to buy a pair of triple wide running shoes? Never had much luck in Seoul. |

Ebay
I just found out that about 1 in 10 on ebay will ship worlwide and it is not all that unreasonable. |

The thing about Ebay...will Korean customs slap on extra fees if you're importing stuff or is it taken into account on the ebay site itself? I had a battery shipped to me from Hong Kong and I didn't have to pay any extra fees, but how about laptops, psps, RAM, books etc.? |

| Yes you have to pay duty on all items exceeding 150 000 won. You will get a notice informing you to send money or you can go there to avoid administrative costs, to pick up your item. So for reasonable items exceeding that amount ask the seller to list a lower price. |

| I had the same thing posted once and someone said Footlockers will deliver to Korea. For clothes, also Lands End, Victoria's Secret, Forver21 (have to confirm this), and American Eagle. Good Luck! |

| There must be more responses to this than what's been received. Anyone know a good tech site that will deliver to Korea? Looking for a PCI (not PCI-E) Video card. |

Well, regarding technology, there's a huge selection of domestic sites and physical locations here and the trouble/fees for importing stuff puts a lot of people off.
There's a Russian district in Busan and there's a shoe shop there...maybe they sell large sizes? |

| For those looking for 4e width shoes, size 11 I found 1, exactly 1 pair at the New Balance at Lotte World in Jamsil. I bought the last pair. Perhaps if more people ask, they'll stock more. |
