How do I go about buying from American stores - online?

Let's say I would like to purchase from NewEgg.
How do I get the product in the end?

If anyone has done so in the past, could they please advise?


The prices for cards are MUCH lower than here.

E.g.

Sapphire Radeon 4850 @ $179.... about ~ R1900 ?

Please...

Many of the online US stores will not ship to SA (and many other places) due to warranty restrictions.

Remember when comparing prices you must add shipping, 14% VAT and customs charges.

So basically if product costs $179 and I calculate it at about R1900, I'm being too "cheap" (can't think of the word...) ?

How does $199 work out to R2500 ?

Is my math bonkers?

New egg does not accept non-US credit cards, so you won't be able to pay, let alone they don't ship to non-US soil.

They have a bigger economy, much bigger buying power than SA, and get begger quantity discount on these products.
