Why Singapore customers use Selectido
Singapore is a great destination for US imports — free port, low duties, fast couriers. The standard tools are VPost (SingPost's mail forwarder), comGateway, ezbuy. They work, but they all share the same limitation: you still have to find items online and order them yourself, and many US stores (Costco, Trader Joe's retail, Apple Store) don't ship to forwarder addresses at all.
Selectido fills that gap with a live video specialist who shops in person.
