About SkyShop Logistics – USA Shopping
Facilitator
SkyShop Logistics, is a shopping facilitator for international
online buyers that enhances the shopping experience from the time
of purchase through cross-border delivery. SkyShop is designed to
be the only web address international shoppers need to be able to
realize all of their online purchases from the United States.
GlobalShop's offering includes product pricing comparison, secure
online purchasing and overseas shipping, a landed cost calculator
and merchandise return capability. Additionally, GlobalShop
addresses many of the challenges of online cross-border shopping --
lack of familiarity with U.S. clothing sizes, expensive
express-courier delivery services, U.S. merchants that do not
accept foreign credit cards, lack of an integrated package return
system, unexpected and high fees associated with customs duties and
taxes, and poor parcel post service provided by the national postal
service in their local country. For more information, visit
