Shipping from US to La Paz?
Hi All, new to the forum. I have moved to La Paz 4 months ago, and dont have a clue how shipping stuff works here.
I need to order stuff from the USA, like from online stores etc. The place I am buying from has worldwide express shipping, but how reliable is it to
get stuff here?
I dont have any idea, so please if you have ordered stuff from the us and had it shipped, please let me know how it works.
Do they ship to your Mexico address? do you have to pick up somewhere?
Thanks for your help,
Rick

I think that they have UPS and DSL in La Paz.
Amazon.com ships by mail and I have had great luck that way
Look in your phone book.

I find that looking around locally usually nets what I need, that's part of the Baja challenge and it benefits the local economy.

Just ask someone where the tiolet landing light store is. If it is something that is really "needed", it will be there.

Toilets!!!!
For Couples With Potty Issues: Toilet Landing Lights
End the lid up/lid down bathroom battle of the sexes once and for all with Johnny Lights, a $13 toilet night light that sends out a green warning
beacon when the seat is up.
The Johnny Light is designed to protect ladies from that midnight splash-landing, while helping guys not to tinkle on the seat.
"I like to think I'm doing my bit to preserve marriages," say Johnny Light inventor Bill Bradford. "Contrary to popular belief, 60 percent of our
customers are men."
