Who to ship parts with????

[GINCH]

So I'm buying a few things from the states from a private seller. Who should I ask him to ship the products with? I'm so sick of taking it up the @!#! by UPS on their brokerage fees.

Thanks in advance!

I just bought some things and the guy is shipping them USPS, so far no fees, I should have the package in a couple days, I'll let you know.

USPS is usually pretty good. UPS has been hit and miss.

I'd choose USPS even though it might take a little longer.

Derek,

Don't you guys have a flat rate account with UPS? Ours is pretty good. We have a set amount for anything under $250, $250-1500, and anything over $1500. If you do, just order it through fifth and then pay the bill when it comes.

I prefer USPS, they are fairly quick, inexpensive, never had issues with them. $5 dollar brokerage fee cant beat that.

Make a free account at www.packageexpress.com

Get the seller to ship USPS to the address on their site, they will email you once they arrive and give you a list of shipping options.

Select the cheapest one and ship it as a gift

anyone but UPS. i've just had too many negative experiences with them.
just had some wheel spacers and bolts shipped from the states with USPS, no fees. not even duty (can take a little longer though).

USPS, its cheaper too although it may take longer. I've gotten a couple packages received and some more im waiting on all have come in within 2 weeks.

I was looking at buying something and the shipping was UPS however it said in the checkout in a couple places that the company is a "non-resident supplier to Canada" and there would be no additional charges (includes shipping/duty/gst), anyone order from a company claiming that? I'll likely order in the next few days. They ship usps but can't due to size.
