Has anyone had a good experience with a US based consolidation and shipping service at reasonable rates? I am more and more coming across US eBay sellers who will not ship to Australia.

Comgateway . com.   Use them and they supply you with your own US address ;) that beats the do not ship mugs.
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Have you guys actually used this company? There are many reports on the web they are a front for identity and credit card fraud.

Have used and have never had a problem. Goods turn up roughly on listed times, well packed and mostly cheaper than USPS. Tim754

Ive been using shipito with no problems. rates are ok (not fantastic - fair), the consolidation is where you save the money , their website and(very quick) service easy to use , tracking etc.

I've used Comgateway a few times with no problems.  I works out about $10-$12/kg and that's based upon the greater of the actual weight or volumetric weight, so the smaller the box the seller uses the better.
