hey ,
got a phone from the states, it was shipped to his address in ohio.
what courier service would u guys suggest i use thats economical as well as doesnt get classified as post by customs as i hear shipping by courier or by post attracts different customs slabs . couriers are better.
any idea on what prices would be charged for shipping ? i do believe customs will be charged at 1.03 % of the value of a new phone.. second hand phones attract fines . so its best to just show the phone as new and full price .. going as a gift also is pointless coz if they assess it to be of higher than 200 $s in value they will charge u duties and penalties

heard bout aramex but that would not make sense for me.. as id have to have my friend ship it to them first and also open an account.
 
Aramex is the cheapest option available. Even USPS willl charge around $40 for shipping a 500 gram box. Aramex comes to $10, much cheaper. They also clear the customs for you which the post will not. Couriers are all costlier than post.
