Re: Hey guys
UPS always charged a flat fee duty fee everytime u get something from the US, its lame., USPS is a cheaper option, but takes forever! Fedex and DHL are the best IMO

Re: Hey guys
The problem with using DHL and Fedex is that they only ship ground in the US. So using airmail is 5 times more expensive. UPS is the highest priced carrier. I don't know why anyone used them. USPS is probably your best bet. They won't ship large items.

Re: Hey guys
I always used USPS also.. I also live close to the boarder so I use the work po box and drive across to pick my stuff up... most of the time if it is used parts or what not I will just unpack it and bring it back through.. 95% of the time they dont even ask want it is... and when they do say its old car parts left over from working on the car...

FedEx offers Ground International shipping. Thought I'd mention it.
Also, FedEx now owns DHL. Thought I'd mention that as well.

o really? Fedex does international ground too? I thought they only do air...it would really suck if the reason why I can't get my stuff is because of a shipping problem...

Re: Hey guys
FedEx Express is a completely different division than FedEx Ground. In fact, we don't affiliate ourselves with each other at all.
You can't, however, go to a FedEx/Kinko's and fill out a Ground International label...
You can only do a international ground label online.
