Good Points

MYorbital.com has an easy to sue interface and an extensive directory of product and service categories.


Bad Points

The site is still in BETA so some errors might occur (yet none ws encountered).
It only provide global delivery solutions for orders from the USA & UK, but more delivery options and originating countries to be introduced soon.


General Comments

MyOrbital.com is a site that enables Internet shoppers from all over the world to shop from any site in the shopper's own currency. It works for everything; music downloads, travel bookings, clothes, etc. Great aspect...the service is totally free!

All you need to do is to select your own currency and tick the T&C's box. You go through to a directory page with an address bar at the top and a directory of product & service categories. Now all you have to do is either type a specific site you want to shop from in the address bar, or select from the directory. The site you go to will be in your selected currency, nevermind if it normally works in euros, US$, £, or whatever.

I found it very usefull, becasue I shop on Amazon.com and other USA based sites rather often...now it is all in £'s!

Myorbital.com do provide global delivery solutions, but the options are limited and is just available for orders from USA & UK based sites. More options and countries to be introduced soon.

MyOrbital is Free, easy to use and is great for shopping on sites in the USA, where prices are generally a lot cheaper and have a wider selection of products. It is normally an effort to convert currency when shopping on non-local sites, but MyOrbital does it automatically.

The site is new, so there are some design aspects that can be upgraded and there is no feature that allow users to review/rate merchants. I'm sure it will improve over time.

Over all the site is a pleasure to use and very useful for international shopping.
