I do live in Iran. As in 80s decade in many western countries, the digital marketing platforms are just getting more and more popular here in Iran. You can buy goods even from most far villages in the country and receive goods within few days. recently new platforms started to work which are a combination of "Social Media Network" and "Retail Store" - similar to ebay or etsy or even Chinese taobao- where converted to giant retail stores!

Payment
[/glow]
Bitcoin escrow accepted. After you escrow bitcoin, i'll buy goods (from different sites different sellers) and pack them into one package and send to your address all around the world!
I do get a 20% commission - minimum $10, so you do pay for goods itself, domestic shipping (~$1 per shipping) from seller warehouse to our warehouse in Iran, international post shipping ($20-$50 per kg for express shipping) and finally some custom clearance which you (probably) should pay to your local post officer.
Examples

for example you need these items:
The goods price is $14.5 until here,
Goods are from 4 different sellers, so $1/package or less is usually for domestic shipping. So $4 for domestic shipping
Total Weight equals to : 5gr+500gr+100gr+1kg = 1605gr. the international post do round it up so will charge for 2kg, for example if you want it in Germany, we must ship the 2kg package from Iran to Germany, currently there two different channels:
1- Economic post: $45 for 2kg package from Iran to Germany (2-3 week)
2- Express post: $65 for 2kg package from Iran to Germany (1-2 week)
for example you need economic post, so the total amount you should pay is:
$14.5 (goods price) + $10 (my commission) + $4 (domestic shipping) + $45 (international shipping) = $71
If you want to buy same items from Amazon for example you should pay:
The difference between amazon goods and Iran local goods is:
Amazon.com's packaging are better
Iranian local goods quality are better than amazon's
So if you concern for quality more than packaging, then you can buy from basalam for lower price and higher goods quality.
