Hi,
Can anyone please tell me where to buy a kindle e-reader oasis online which can be shiped to Mauritius. Since Amazon doesn't ship to Mauritius.

Anyway you'll have a lot of difficulties to download e-books on your Kindle here in Mauritius. You're allowed about 5 and that's it. Try Kobo. They use it at the IFM, the huge French library in Rose-Hill, Mauritius. It's better to buy an e-reader here or else you'll have problems to download books. Anyway this is what the staff at a famous French store, FNAC told me the other day when I wanted to buy their e-reader. I'm also trying to buy an e-reader here.

Don't tell me!
Thanks Gene78.

I bought on Amazon and got a friend to bring it.. alternatively you could ask a friend to post it but it may be subject to customs tax. My Amazon account is still in the UK and I have no restrictions at all on the amount I can download so I'm not sure why anyone would experience a limit??

That's a good news. I can arrange for someone from Australia or England.
Thanks a lote.

I recently purchased one on internet.I wrongly registered myself.
I  don't know how to use it now.
If you can manage ,you can have it.

www.amazon.com ships to Mauritius. However, expect to pay around 50 USD for shipping charges.
Also, not all items are available for shipping to Mauritius. I guess certain makes have commercial arrangements that prevent such imports.

I bought my Kobo in Canada. I am using it here in Mauritius, buying books from Chapters in Canada or Fnac in France and never experienced any limitation.

Book shops don't sell e-readers in Mauritius?
