Online shopping in the US.
With the exchange rates currently the way they are I'm thinking of getting my christmas shopping done online from the US. Anyone know of any good sites, there was a thread on here a while ago but I can't find it.

Since the AU$=US$, does anyone have any good American websites, that ship cheaply to Australia?
I had a look at Amazon, but they don't seem to ship overseas!

If you're looking to make the most of the currency situation then these guys - http://www.shipito.com/ - were highly recommended to me by a mate. Not used them myself, but he was saying they will even repackage stuff and ship it in a single box to cut down on postal costs.
