Finding stuff and ordering online
Posted: Fri Dec 02, 2016 3:10 pm
Hello. I am brand new to this forum. The question I am going to ask has likely been ask a thousand times a thousand different ways, but here I go anyway. Ok. I just moved to Phnom Penh about 3 weeks ago. The question I have is finding things has been kind of a pain in the butt. Fortunately, I am staying with some Filipino expats that are holding my hand on many things, but the one thing they don't seem to know anything about is ordering or finding certain things. What am I talking about, ordering from Amazon.
Is there a Cambodian Amazon? Likely not, but if there is not one is there a regional one that maybe covers this side of the world. Again, if not do they deliver to Cambodia? I found this site through a google search that said they would handle all the logistics to ordering through Amazon and they would handle it all to get it delivered to Cambodia. However, I didn't see a price. There is no way they do all that for free.
Anyway, it's obvious my question. Do any of you shop online? (Btw, I know of Aliexpress, but they do not carry many of the things I am looking for like video games and video game systems). If you do shop online, where do you do it and how do you do it.
I am reasonably savvy, but this seems to be eluding me. It may be the easiest thing ever and I am making it hard. Any help would be so appreciated.
Plus, I would love to get to know some American expats here that are just normal people. I am not into the bar scene, or the sex scene, or any other thing like that. I am not looking down my nose at that, I am just saying I am not a partier or anything.
Thanks,
Sincerely,
John
