Ok, I just found an email from them asking me to email them the invoice for the computer. The thing went in my junk folder and it was there since this morning I just found it. I guess this will delay my shipment, unless they already sent it and just need to assign a value in their manifest. Although I got the email asking for invoice it still does not show up on my account but at least I know they received it.

Lol.. Christian, the manager, called me today to let me know everything is set and it will be here tomorrow and I can have delivery/pickup by Sat. I am crossing my fingers that there are no delays as I am awaiting this Mac Pro a few weeks now. I had to ship it to family in NY and they sent it to WS for me.

ok ok...dont get the thread locked guys. too much competition around for you to be dwelling on the shortcomings of one.

[joeyyeoj]

tuners,

as the topic states , has anyone here dealt with this courier service before?
there rates are really affordable just need some reviews on their service.

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

Forget affordable go E-Zone.

Transexpress is also good, using them for 7 years now no issues never a lost package and the are free, Ezone is yearly fee but they are better.

[Coppershot]

Yeah im been with them only a year.
Rates are very good. Packages usually takes 3-4 days from miami to trinidad.
During the middle of the year they switched from volume rates to pay by weight only which makes packages cheaper.

Previously with aeropost and CSF now with tropical Express.
Never lost any packages.

Tropical also have sea shipping option with items over 25lbs. Takes 3-4week by sea.
Havent got a chance to use sea option as yet.

[Kewell35]

CSF is awful...plain awful. Horrible service, lost packages, long wait times, lies, incompetent and lazy staff.

Thinking about leaving....was considering Websource.

[Spitfir3]

websource has very good service but the pricea are eww

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

merging

[starscream00]

Anyone with tropical express could tell me how long an item supposed to be in transit on their tracking page? Since yesterday I'm seeing my item in transit to Trinidad. First time I'm using them so I'm not quite sure. I know websource usually takes a few hours for the item to get to Trinidad. Also I had 2 packages delivered to their warehouse from Amazon own shipping and only one showed up, I was told that the other one would show up later on in the week, is this usual?

[stev]

quick question:

I ordered several items last week Friday (black Friday sale) and on Monday as well...all items purchased on Friday was delivered to my skybox on Tuesday and all items ordered on Monday was delivered today.

IBC is only aware of the items that was ordered on Monday....they are not aware of the items that I ordered on Friday.

is this normal? the IBC woman who answered was not that helpful.

do I need to take any action or just wait?

[gurmuk]

I actually having that same issue today.... not with IBC though...

Having that issue with tropical express for one of my package. Ordered 2 items on black friday, one showed up, the other one didnt. Gave them a call today and the lady said the warehouse is hectic atm, and they sorting out the packages so it would take time for the other one to show up. Mind you the item that showed up has "in transit" from miami to trinidad 2 days now Im yet to see when the other one will show up.

The packages were not manifested yet.

[Fearless]

I've been with Ezone since around 2004, they are as reliable as you can get. But their small package rates are a killer.

I got 4 items that they saying I didn't sent invoices for again today from Ibc. All invoices sent out yesterday, I think they are doing it out of bad mind now. The packages arrived in Trinidad yesterday and they already sent the papers for me to go clear myself.

I'm looking into the seabox options, fed up of the hassle.

Learned that the hard way yesterday, spent 400+ to clear a couple led bulbs that i probably spent $20 US for in total and they just sent another invoice to clear an earphones for $168. CSF service sucks, but they are the cheapest i encountered so far.

[stev]

so now I'm hearing that IBC's shipment was delayed last night for a couple hours....looks like im not getting anything until next week

FEDEX also having some issues abroad...another shipment was delayed as well (shipping exception)

[pyromaniax]

all these problems...... I have been ordering so many stuff within the last couple months through Aeropost and everything coming in smooth and on time.

[M_2NR]

fellas... is crunch time right now. gihdem chance

to be honest, if i get things in january that I ship now I eh mind because shipping anything right now is a risk:
1) Insane load for xmas
2) Insane load from BF, CM, TG, etc.
3) winter is here
4) xmas + trini work ethic

[Chimera]

yeah i not ordering anything through skybox again this month

[Morpheus]

First set of orders came in smoothly so far. Fingers crossed for the rest

[M_2NR]

[M_2NR]

[S_2NR]

ABA bring something in for me na. Suitcase transit.

[Strugglerzinc]

Order on BF and CM, stuff arrives by Wednesday in miami, collect from Aeropost today.

23 people in front me when i arrive at office, in and out in under 15 min.

People complain about Aeropost prices while Websource, IBC et al make excuses about why packages delayed.
