@Giles:

What is more impressive, is that although we processed the order at 11:54, it was not actually picked up until 16:15 from the office…..

Yeah that's what I assumed. So crazy.

a possible buyer asked me to use ems shipping service since he thinks that their post office is not that proffesional, im not really convinced to use any other shipping version than ems…

since I've never heard about ems in germany, what shipping service/method is close to it?

would be nice if someone could reply quick

EMS is Express Mail Service

It is an express international mail service that is typically, but not always handled by the National Post Office of each country that participates.

In the UK it is handled by Parcel Force (which is part of our national Post Office).

looks to me like I still have to use dhl to ship things, since Germany doesn't show a specific ems shipping service and links me to the dhl website! thanks a lot G.

Hey Finn, most people don't know this but in the US, the USPS actually uses UPS planes to expedite their express mail service. I say just cut out the middle man. I imagine something similar is going on with DHL.

thanks for the info mate!…

What country are you dealing with?.. Make sure you ship tracked and insured…

indonesia…done and done...i´m using certified shipping which includes a tracking ID and insurance!...
send shirts to the usa and they arrived save and sound in ~8days!...so i don´t think there´s going to be a problem!
you won´t find many that will pay 55USD just for shipping so that is my only/savest option!...i´m always pointing it out to them but if they cool with it i´m cool with it anyway!

Indonesia… Well at least you have tons of kids on here who can visit the lad if he scams ya... 

Wait: you're shipping to mankarat?.. Ignore my comment then...     

[Finn666]

why should he scam me?…i´m the one sending the package right!?

Happens all the time Finn. That's a majority of my job. Stolen credit cards are used all the time to order products and ship them anywhere. Africa is a huge scam.

I should hook Rafa up with some of me mates and their horror stories

plz do :)…well i´ve bought from him already and now he wants to buy something from me. since i think he´s pretty legit since he has worked for a wellknown member already, so i don´t think he´s trying to scam me!

[Seul]

Mind you: I'm not insinuating that anyone on here is a scammer!.. But eg. in the late 90'ies lotsa underground punk and hc distributors were scammed by people from Indonesia…

[Finn666]

i´ll let you know how things work out mate!

Seul: Malaysia and Indonesia is a different country.. That package Rafa mention not for me..

[Finn666]

i hate when people edit their posts when i´m about to write the answer to the first post made 

mank is my bro and not the guy i´m dealing with in this special case…i wouldn´t have a single thought to ship him the goods even if he didn´t pay for´em yet...great guy´s all i´m sayin!

now enough of this...plz go on!

[Seul]

Always thought you were from Indonesia, mankarat. My bad.

Hopefully some mod will clean this up. Sorry for the mess

Calling all Swedes…. We have had a number of problems with UPS deliveries in Sweden - typically poor delivery staff.  What are your experiences?  What do you think about us using EMS in Sweden?  Any other suggestions/feedback?
