Buying and shipping services from the US

Hi, I would some advice and experience from buying and shipping services from the US. I have already bought a ton of things mainly from my photography and have used BH who offers direct shipping internationally. I need to change all my computer setup (For video and the gigantic d800 photos) and was going to use superbiiz.com but they have stopped shipping internationally. So my only solution would be to use one of shipping system. I would like to know if anyone has some recommendation or experience from one of these companies.

Buying a lens is like opening a box of chocolates

Among many lens models claiming same max aperture, there are differences in light gathering. Also huge performance difference at max aperture. Different lenses breath differently. Supposedly same lenses actually vary in optical performance. It's like picking a tomato from a grocery store. They are all different.

When one asks me about a particular lens, I have no idea. Just take lots of pics and start pixel peeping before it's too late to return. If one has lots of money and he buys lots of gears, he would have to spend many hours on examining new gears. Spending creates lots of work. Thank gawd I'm not rich :)
