Buying Gift For My Brother Shipping Problems

JohnEdwards01

Hey guy i had a question for you,

i have tried to buy a gift for my brother in California and i am in Miami but bestbuy wont ship to him. They tell me it can only be the address on my credit card but this is silly i want to buy him a laptop/ipod for his birthday and dont want it shipped to me because then i have to pay twice for shipping which is silly.

They said it could be done in an email back if i called between 9-5 but i work these hours and dont have an opportunity to call.

Frankly this is a hassle, does anyone know of a website where i would be able to ship him a laptop/ipod or was even thinking and xbox 360 being he is a big xbox fan

Thanks,

John

How about Amazon US? They will deliver something to someone else and let you pay for it. I recently shipped a gift to my brother in Australia via Amazon.com and I live in the UK.

Do you know anyone who lives nearby him who you could PayPal the money to? Have you tried putting your address down as his? I've never known a retailer do anything with this info other than gather statistical information on its user base...
