    I live in Canada however, I have a few giftcards that work only for Amazon.COM

    Is it possible to redeem those giftcards for Amazon.COM goods and have it shipped to Canada?

    You'd have to ship to a forwarding shipper in New York or Washington state.

    You can have items bought form amazon.com shipped to any location. You will just pay more in shipping if it's outside the US.

    That's why I suggested shipping it to a forwarder... it's cheaper.

    Depends on what you are shipping. I believe Amazon only offers UPS to Canada. When it lands, you will owe VAT before delivery. Using a forwarder, you can have it shipped from NY to Toronto via USPS Global and get delivery without the VAT.

    Do a search for "Canadian postal forwarder"
