Yeah BUT like roll the dice 50$ or 200$???? Is there any way to guage?
From my experience zero ryme or reason. Ordered two used shirts from Canada via UPS, both close to $200. Received a $51 bill from one purchase, then a $120 bill for the next. Good luck trying to talk w someone at UPS with reasoning skills.

Seems like it’s completely unpredictable. In the case of the UK and Canada the goal post also keeps moving at the speed of dementia.
I’d say it’s a gamble, but if you want something bad enough, roll the dice.
If you buy from us, then we pick up all the taxes and handling charges.
Read this......
Whatever other companies, shops or brands do is up to them.....

@Alex
maybe I missed the information
, did you changed to DHL express instead of UPS ? -
@Daniel-San Yep. You must have missed it, because you selected "DHL Express Saver" as your shipping option at checkout
-
@Alex
that’s when I noticed.
thought it was announced here and I missed that information.
is it only for german orders or in general? -
Ah rats, I definitely prefer UPS. Certainly not a big deal, though.
-
@Alex Please keep DPD within the UK, they are the best up here in Scotland...
Although I couldn't imagine you guys ever using Evri
-
@Twistlock
it’s DHL express, they only deliver on Saturdays if you pay extra for it. In Germany it’s an extra of 12€ for delivery saturdays.

DHL almost always delivers to my apartment successfully while UPS consistently delivers stuff to the building next door where the concierge happily accepts my packages but then wont let me claim them from him, he sends it back to UPS and it gets routed to a pickup point, looking forward to trying out DHL on my next order!
-
I’m sure it’ll be fine! DHL just doesn’t have any local presence in my town, as far as I know. They use contractors to deliver, I think. The last time I I had something shipped by them, a random guy in a Toyota Corolla handed me my package when I strolled down the sidewalk with my dog, from a location that wasn’t my house. I barely even identified myself.
-
@sabergirl my experience with DHL has been similar. A courier literally drives it 3 hours to Springfield from St Louis on day of expected delivery. Sometimes they make it by 7pm…sometimes they don’t. On the plus side, the item has always arrived so that’s good.
-
Is there a choice for UPS for a fee at checkout? All of my UPS packages get delivered to the local UPS store awaiting my pickup so not laying out on my porch all day for the porch pirates. DHL has been an issue for me with having deliveries routed elsewhere or for signatures. FedEx is hard enough to coordinate and DHL is another level above them for me or my area.. It appears I’m in the minority.

Just got a package from iron heart via DHL to the states yeaterday. Everything was perfect for me and same delivery time as UPS.
