If you have general questions about my service could you please ask them on the Price USA forum.

Who are we?

Price USA is owned and operated by Dr Carolina Tillett. In 2005 I moved to Bendigo with my husband Daniel Tillett, a Senior Lecturer at the School Of Pharmacy, La Trobe University. After moving to Bendigo I was looking to start a business which I could fit around our three young boys. After going through the frustration of trying to order an item from the USA, I thought that a service that would let Australians buy directly from any USA store at a reasonable price would be a good business. I have been running Price USA for three and a half years with the help of my USA partners.

Why PRICE USA?

The original idea for Price USA came when I tried to order some items from the USA that weren't available here in Australia. The company I first contacted was not willing to ship to Australia. After much searching I eventually found another company that would ship to Australia, but they wanted to charge me more than $200 for shipping a $25 order! I thought there must be a better way and Price USA was born.
