Domain servers in listed order:

NS1.HOSTMONSTER.COM
NS2.HOSTMONSTER.COM

This means that it's a company that is registered and hosted in the United States, but is registered by someone in China. I would contact the company before ordering and find out where they ship from, if it's China you want to use EMS for shipping, the post office usually has decent deals on customs, UPS and DHL will kill you on brokerage fees.
