Really - to South Africa?

 

[kilos]

Thats why you apply for a http://www.myus.com Florida based address in the USA ($15/month)
Approx $25 for a small shipment up to $100 (13 pound)
Free shipping via Amazon Prime and then myus.com ship it to South Africa via DHL

Ordered from Amazon (Monday), shipped GPS to Florida,USA address and then re-shipped
to my SA address and had it by Saturday. (Incl customs layover)
5 days service and DHL prices are cheaper from the US to SA

Do they do any kind of shipping to SA? Or not at all?

Yes they do ship to SA, if they cannot ship to SA they will inform you at the checkout
stage, thats where I ship to my US address
Certain electronic items will not be shipped to SA ie GPS

I was under the impression myus also charges to repack the item, and also has an invoice fee? 6kg at R800... I guess its not too bad.

Which GPS did you get? Dont you need to buy the local SA maps?
