I have a lot of stuff sent from US.
Vitamins and suppliments, cooking utenils, anything I want and can't get here, which is quite a list, and some duty is charged and sometimes not, but nothing ever makes in under 2 weeks and some a month and all is shipped USPS International Priority Express and usually size and weight considered is the Flat Rate Box, 12"x 12"x 6". for $35.
I couldn't see shipping cloths over here as nothing is made in US and about anything you can get there that would be suitable to wear here is sold here at 1/8 the price.
I was in China for awhile and had a girl friend that was always wanting me to buy stuff for my daughter and ship it home, and I had a hard time explaining to her so she could understand that damn near everything in the US was made here and they alredy had it there, the people could not get it in their minds that I had came from the industrial giant and got off the plane already wearing Chinese made pants, shirt and deck shoes and I even had to show some the "MADE IN CHINA" tags in the stuff.
If you want to send her something nice, something she can use and get some good out of,, send her an ATM card and PIN to your bank account, she will get some use from that.
