Shipping cameras to Alaska This morning I've seen several cameras advertised at good prices but with notices saying that they can't be shipped to my default address. Lower down on the page it says that the cameras can only be shipped within the US or to APO/FPO addresses. I live in Alaska, which I had previously thought was in the United States. Was I wrong?

I live in Alaska too but have a P O box. I just have it sent to someone who has home delivery and then pick it up from them. If you have a P O box, that is the problem.

I ran into the same problem as I am from Alaska as well. They wouldn't ship to my PO Box so I tried entering two different home addresses and those didn't work either. I finally just had it shipped to a friend in Pennsylvania and they are going to send it to me. In October I ordered a camera and they sent it to my PO Box, so I am wondering why they won't do that anymore.

I was told it was the cost of shipping. I have had very heavy items shipped for free before, and the camera was only in a small box. They wouldn't even send me two boxes of TEA! I would be happy to pay the shipping as we are limited in what is available in our Safeway. Wish they would give us the choice of paying for shipping or not on the increasing number of items that they say can't be shipped to Alaska.

Hello Alistar, Thanks for your interest! Regrettably, it is EZCORP'S policy to not ship outside of the Continuous US which means no APO or FPO addresses unfortunately. This is because of the loss incurred when packages go through customs, high shipping fees, and damage done to the packages themselves. They found that this happened too frequently and they were losing too much money. This is why they decided to only ship locally. We apologize again for this inconvenience.

Because Amazon is changing.... It used to be my default online store to buy stuff, even they are a little more expensive occasionally. Now they started charging 8% sales tax in CA. That's a deal breaker when I'm buying the D600+24-70mm lens because I'd have to pay $300 for tax. I bought from B&H, no tax no shipping.

You could have the item shipped under international shipping, but the shipping would be quite pricey, plus the order wouldn't include any duties/taxes - they would have to be paid before picking up the package in Afghanistan (We have no idea what that cost would be.). If you can, you would do best to ship to an APO/FPO address.

We ship to Alaska all the time, so I am not sure why Amazon will not allow you to enter your address. I just checked our shipping settings and nothing has changed there -- we shipped items to Alaska last week without any problems. It sounds like the problem may be with Amazon, not with a particular retailer? Maybe try entering a your work address there in Alaska instead of your home address? I am just taking some random guesses, since I really do not know why you are having a problem

I apologize for the confusion, unfortunately, I am not positive why it is giving a different quote. This can in fact be shipped to Alaska for the $2.99. If you would like to send me a message directly I would be happy to discuss further with you.Thanks for checking with us!

Hello. These cameras are sold by a seller not Amazon.com which means that the prices are set by the seller themselves. Sellers on our website are allowed to sell items at any price they feel is fair. However, we do have rules sellers must follow:

Where are you shipping the item? We do charge additional fees for Alaska and Hawaii, and any international shipping has an additional fee.

Mine was shipped from Fernley, NV. I'd guess that such cameras are legal anywhere in America. Now, if you're talking about third-world places like NY, NJ, IL, KA, etc., etc., then they very well could be illegal.

Normally they are not. If you are in AK, HI, or out of the US the shipping charges will reflect this.

Whatever anyone does, DO NOT BUY FROM OR DEAL WITH BEST PRICE CAMERAS .COM. They have given us nothing but the run around after having an order on hold for over 2 months. They of course had the same camera, but a much pricier package available. You aren't allowed to speak with anyone high up ever, they all treat you like crap...100% bad experience.

Thanks for posting your question, According to the seller's page, this item is available for shipping to continental U.S. street addresses. However, the best way to check is to add the item to your cart. If they do ship to BFPO addresses you will be able to proceed with your order. If not you will receive an immediate error message notification. Please note, you would not need to purchase an item simply by adding it to your cart- you can remove it at any stage before confirming your order. You can read more about this seller's shipping policies here:

I believe if the address is a APO or FPO there should not be an issue as it should be treated as regular mail and not international shipping. Be safe and thank you for your service. Kindest Regards, Joey Bailey Petty Officer 2nd Class

There are some special considerations when shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. Expedited and Priority Shipping for Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico can't be sent to P.O. boxes or APO, FPO OR DPO. Some items from our Tools & Hardware, Electronics, and Outdoor Living stores can't be shipped to Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico if they are extremely heavy, oddly-shaped, or considered hazardous. Additionally, some items from our Health and Personal Care and Grocery stores cannot be shipped to these destinations. Check the item's product detail page for eligibility and available shipping options. Only specific shipping options may be available for some addresses. Available shipping options will appear at checkout when you enter a shipping address.

We ship all around the world. We would need your full address and order as shipping is calculated by weight. So Shipping would be more expensive then the listing price here on Amazon.
