Shopping on Amazon or ebay UK to deliver in Mauritius by Saya5282

Hi, do Amazon or ebay UK deliver in Mauritius? Or any other online provider deliver in Mauritius? Especially children item. Thank you

Judy Wakefield

Amazon and Ebay as already mentioned only deliver some things to Mauritius. One way around this is to set up a MyUS account - http://www.myus.com/, you pay an annual subscription to have a US address, you can then use (when available) the Amazon ... Read More

The new terminal - Beware it's a bitching post by Sleeping Cookie

Beware - it's a bitching post. They build a new and luxurious terminal / airport. I must say I expected more. * I would have expected that for the arrivals, the people would be able to wait inside the building to welcome their relatives / loved ...

Judy Wakefield

Wow, I did think you would be able to go inside and have a coffee while waiting for family / friends to arrive and then be there to greet them, I am amazed that has not happened. Sounds like the coffee is not worth having anyway :) Can you go ... Read More

I do agree that the market is artificially inflated and just wonder how long it can last. There seems to be many, many, many homes for rent that sit empty for months (or years) and I have to wonder how the owners afford to allow this to happen, ... Read More

Thanks for your input External. Have you lived in Mauritius? I do believe that there will be a 'crash' in the Mauritian property market and a lot of people will be left with empty houses and no tenants to pay their mortgages. It may take this ... Read More
