Strange enough all the "cheaper" options have yearly fees, etc. And some I've never heard of. I'll stick to what I accustomed to yes.

So I just decided to try jetbox. I ordered an item that arrived at their Miami warehouse on the 16th of June. I haven't received the item yet :-o ... So I'll just wait to see how this goes...

Good prices is one thing but when delivery taking long that is another issue.

I agree , trying out areopost and they working out good so far. I think I am going to drop csf, their service is not as good as before. I am still waiting on a package that has a weight of a 50 cent piece which has reached their warehouse since week before.

Like everybody sign up for jetbox? Lol...I did too. Their packages take too long to reach here.
I think I will stick to aeropost for sky freight.

How's Aeropost's prices?

I used to hear some drama with their charges...don't know if that's still the case.

Trying out EZone UK. That UK address is very "sometime-ish". I wonder if it's the case for all companies. Takes quite a bit of tweaking to work.

So far so good with aeropost, I have 2 more packages coming in with them. Their calculator is quite accurate. Finally got my package from csf this morning. I think that's it with them. Might try Web source as well.

They are cheaper but they take long to deliver your package. It was not so when I started using them , then after a while their service just started to go down hill. Hence the reason I'm using aeropost.

What happens if I ordered something to a relative's sky box and he mistakenly tells them that the package isn't his? It's websource btw.

doubtful. May be someone can clarify but it may remain at warehouse as unclaimed and may be auctioned off later on.

Most people I know have used Laparkan for ocean freight. Wouldn't hurt to give them a call. If that fails, try Seabox. As with air freight you'll need to know the weight and dimensions of the transmission to get a quote.
