Online shopping in Costa Rica

There is WISH.com and while they have a very limited selection, they do have some good stuff for a good price.
The thing is it is very iffy as to when you will get it; apparently it is all shipped from China and by different sellers - kind of like Amazon Marketplace in that respect (different sellers, not WISH itself).

So my best friend here, a Tico, has used it numerous times and his experience has been good although in some cases his stuff has not arrived for over 6 months! That said, they paid him back for the stuff not arriving... then it arrived. So he got it free.

And a friend of his recently ordered stuff from WISH twice, and got it within 8 days.
So it's not amazon for sure, but it might be worth giving it a try on some low priced stuff and see what happens. Roll the dice!

I also heard a rumor that the government here is going to start allowing online ordering without import taxes. I find that hard to believe. But it sure would be great.

Oh, and my friend also buys stuff from EBAY (those sellers who do ship here) and he's had great service and keeps telling me to try it. He has had no problem with stuff ending up in Customs from ebay. Nor Wish.
