I would definitely recommend Aramex as they are faster than the Saudi Post.

Between the two there is no comparison, go with Aramex. If you have been to Saudi Post office you will know why, I would never want anything of mine to end up there.

You also have other options but costing more like UPS,Fed Ex, DHL etc.

So if you had to buy something from USA, like from Amazon website and Amazon doesnt ship most item to Saudi. What do you do?

Yup. Am old customer and well satisfied

For DHL, first thing is that they are much expensive. Interestingly, there is a site about them: http://www.noeasyshop.com/

Borderlinx is DHL's service provider. So, is same.
