And they basically weigh around a pound so shipping is cheap.

Ok so far it seems that the best skybox service (from experience) is actually aeropost. They are not the cheapest but they surely are the best in every other aspect. To be honest since other skybox providers don't do a very good job of giving customers a very concise breakdown of all shipping and local customs charges there is a possibility that aeropost's rates may actually be very competitive. If you're a first timer and you don't like surprises in your freight bill and if you value reliability aeropost does a spectacular job. I've been trying to find the same level of overall quality with cheaper rates but every other skybox falls short in some aspect.

No brother aeropost is the worst in my opinion before i used aeropost and their prices were always high. I switched to csf they charge by actual weight and now my charges are way less. For me csf was the best move i ever make. Csf always give u a breakdown on their bill

everybody sayin their skybox company is the best... WHY? just based on price alone? that's not good enough. Nothing comes close to aeropost service. The downside is it's bloddy expensive.

So I just got my invoice for my video card that I shipped...

$410..$300 IN VAT

What the effin hell? I never saw any pc part ever come up to that kinda price in my life bringing down parts. Now the courier claims its customs who value the item that high and attach that figure...so i wondering what they smoking :S? :evil:

Usually I have no problems with this courier but this, this is just outrageous. I'm hoping it really is customs, as the courier may absorb the cost.

Eg a friend brought down a Note 8 tab a few weeks aback , and customs attached duties to it as a phone, not a tab, and when he queried the courier they absorbed the cost as it wasn't his fault or theirs. Although this was a different courier, i'm hoping the same might happen with me.

Maddness, just maddness

first of all by best i mean they are fast(packages received here within a week of them receiving it in Miami) they are reliable... i have never had a single problem with any of dozens of packages i shipped through them in over 5 years, they offer tracking for all packages, the allow you to prealert your packages to expedite the customs process, you can email upload invoices to clear your packages, they have a very useful calculator that gives you a perfect estimate of not just vat and duties but other hidden charges such as fuel surcharge etc, they send you a text message everytime your package arrives and clears customs so if it's something you need urgently you can have it in the shortest time possible. I have even late paid by almost a full year to renew my skybox and they still process my packages. Since i don't know anyone there personally I can only assume this is the level of customer service all their customers can expect. Like i said they are not cheap though but that's the only downside i can think of. I don't think they offer an ocean freight service... maybe that may be a minus for some people. Anyway I answered your question to the best of my memory... now can YOU tell me if there's any skybox that can beat that?

I'm with Aeropost and agree they are good after a period of rubbish slow service recently, however, you set up yourself there with the hidden charges and delivery within a week (it's really more like 2 days).

Awaits the Ezone user replies :lol:

ok yall for some reason i cant find the official skybox thread....so i wanna ask a question how much. if i order a cellphone worth 600usd how much do customs normally charge to clear the phone.

I use aeropost but they expensive sometimes but have to admit the rate of how fast packages reach the counter from miami and ready to collect is impressive.
