Mr. Q: For those shopping and shipping to Qatar, there are Aramex alternatives

Shopping in Qatar, home of the high markup, can be difficult.

But shopping overseas and expecting packages to get here in a timely, inexpensive matter can be a whole other tribulation.

The most popular and well-known vendor of a shop-and-ship service is Aramex.

But new customs rules and what customers are calling a decline in the quality of service there has people looking for new options.

Luckily, there are a few, writes Khalifa Haroon, founder of ILoveQatar.net, who has compiled a list of such services and compared their prices and offerings.

He writes:

I should add that one of the main reasons that I use Shop and Ship style services is because so many shops in Qatar charge extortionate prices and it only makes sense to buy abroad and ship it over. I actually ended up SAVING 3,000 QR on my top of the line iMac by importing it.

Here are his Aramex alternatives suggestions for the overseas shopper.
