The problem with buying things abroad is that if something goes wrong then nothing can be done.

i think FedEx have this service that u can buy stuff from sites, they deliver to FedEx, and FedEx takes over the shipping of it from there to where you live

you should give FedEx a call and check if they do that for india, cuz i know someone in the UK who ordered stuff from the US that way.

and FedEx is damn reliable they will do proper packaging n stuff so no damages

If i get it online it will be shipped to me directly from there? Where will i pay the duty would i have to go to customs office a hundred times to get that material? If yes then it is no point in buying things from abroad...
