Hi everyone, Just noticed on another thread someone mentioning xmas.

Question for you. I have a lot of family in Oz, mainly qland and some near the Blue Mountains and I would like to get them pressies.

Does anyone know where I can get some form of oz shop/store that would gift wrap and deliver pressies in Oz???

Just wondering if would be cheaper as well than sending over a parcel.

I am sooooo going to watch this post! I am just about to buy Chrissy presents and send them, so will be interested to see. I know Angus & Robertson book shops will wrap gifts and send them to an address you specify but am interested in other stores too.

Hi
If you wish to send some pressies in Aus try http://www.petersofkensington.com.au/

They have a broad range of products, gift wrap for free and deliver Australia wide. They are based in Sydney. I have used this service alot. They have perfume, foods, some very unusual things, (I bought my sister an automatic opening rubbish bin).

Just a suggestion, hope it helps as it is much cheaper than posting, better service and more choice as you do not have to deal with customs.

Regards

I know these two online gift shops. However, I have never used them and therefore, can't vouch them!!

Here is another one worth checking out

Guess I should be getting those Xmas cards sorted to send to the folk back in the UK. :-)

does anyone know if any of those accept payments from overseas though? That has been my problem with buying pressies for people overseas in the past - you get right to the checkout and then they won't accept payment on a UK card!

Good Point Suzimc

Hi All,

Here's a good one www.gifts2thedoor.com

They've got a huge selection, deliver the goods themselves in the Perth region and use Auspost for the rest of Aus!
They even throw in a free wrapping and giftag service and are very, very reasonably priced too!

Give them a go!

Cheers

what about the other way around. somewhere in the uk i can send gifts from, to my family over there....

I forgot to mention that you can also order from the UK!!

will have a look for you. I can name tons of shops that do delivery. But only debenhams who gift wrap. give me a couple of days and I will find out places in the uk that deliver gift wrap for xmas.that also accepts pmts etc from oz.

Hi,

I saw someone mention www.cumquattree.com.au earlier. I have actually visited the store in Perth and it is gorgeous!! I didn't realise they had a website - I have just been on and it is beautiful. Pressies for bubs, mums, dads..... Delivery seems cheap too at $8.95 anywhere within oz - with free gift wrap... They have got a couple of cute little clocks, I will check if they send to UK too since i wouldn't mind some things for me!

My kids enjoy checking on Peedeetoys.com.au then they enter nearly the whole site on their wish lists - Keep wishing girls
