Ok. Do they give you the option to insure the package on the cheapest method, or do you just ship it and cross your fingers?

It doesn't come with any insurance but I think you might be able to add it? Also as Chris stated, a tracking number isn't included but you can use the number off of the customs forms. It also the slowest method, sometimes taking up to two weeks to get to your destination.

Quick question — who here has shipped a pair of jeans from the US to Ireland (or England or Europe in general)? Who did you use for shipping and how much did it cost? USPS wants $69 and UPS wants about $100 more than that. Surely I’m doing something wrong.
From my experience, using USPS for international is always more expensive than other options. UPS or FedEx should be far cheaper, because they operate in many of the countries abroad, whereas USPS is the American postal system, and will have to pass along shipping to another company at some point.

Not to every country though, only the fancy ones…
True.
It's slightly embarrassing that Belgium tracks USPS packages better than the US does, even while they're still in the US.

okay, this question is down to personal preference. but i'd like to hear what you guys think.
i'm heading over to europe in nov. while i'm over in paris from 18-23, i'm taking a day to do a day trip to ghent on the 22/11 (as @Seul suggested). however, a thought struck in my mind to head over to frankfurt. the two cities from paris do not greatly differ by car travel. The only difference is when i hit the german border, i'll most likely be able to cut the travel times as shown by google maps.
i've always wanted to go to germany, have a shot on the autobahn. similarly, i'd like to see belgium and what it can offer.
if it was up to you guys, which would you pick and why?

in what sense?
oh it's pretty high though (9.9/10), it's always been a dream to drive on the autobahn as a car enthusiast. next to driving on the ring..

Just remember that the Autobahn isn't unlimited speed-wise everywhere… But I'm sure you've done your homework...
hahaha yeah i know. it's usually way out of the city that are the unlimited sections. i believe my route someone take me one the A6 - A63 - A61 - A60 into frankfurt..

@louisbosco Incase you hit up Frankfurt give me a heads up and I of course will give you the full Insider Tour of the City. The Autobahn is exept in Citys not really Speed controlled, i´ve been "blitzt" several Times in my now 8 Years of driving but never on the Autobahn.
