Hey,

I guess the best thing to do is contact DHL, UPS and others, and compare the prices. If anyone else on the forum has shipped from US earlier i am sure they will reply back.

good luck!

I agree to do the above, or see how much regular mail will cost, it will take a while to get here but will get here eventually.
I know Australia Post will give you an estimated cost when you input package dimensions / weights and where you are shipping to through their website.
Maybe DHL, Aramex, UPS etc have a similar thing on theirs

Most courier companies will provide you a US address, for you to benefit from free deliveries within US by suppliers such as Amazon. The same courier companies will then ship the item to you in Bahrain at their usual courier charges.

This would be a convenient way in my view.

Gunner, thanks for the update? How long would it take to ship? Any restrictions on shipping? I am thinking of buying a Mac from the store....

If you've got a friend in the navy here ask them, Amazon will send it for the same price as they would in the U.S. To the base here.
