How to make purchases in US online shops if they allow customers from the USA only

Many goods, products and services are much less expensive in the USA, so it is a good idea to make purchases in the US online shops. The problems is that many online shops in the US do not ship to international addresses. Most US online sellers ship to the USA only and may be to Canada.

But you can shop on sites like Amazon, NewEgg, Buy.com, Overstock, Endless,... using services like Shipito that offer package forwarding, virtual mailboxes and even assisted purchases (you can make purchases in the US online shops and online auctions like eBay, even if you don't have a credit card, or when a US seller accepts US credit cards only).

p.s.
I've received 20+ packages to my virtual address that I got from Shipito, consolidated them and sent 6 packages overseas. Paid $50 for my first year and saved $623 by consolidating packages already:
