so are they just cutting international shipping? im hoping this means they are going to continue offering cheap rates for shipping in the US


DHL's profitable freight and supply chain-services businesses in the U.S., which employ about 25,000 people, won't be affected by the cuts.

well ---- all that, im not letting faggot ass UPS touch my papckages. all they are good for is loosing or damaging packages and not paying the insurance claim that they charge you for.

guess USPS is it, id rather get assraped on the shipping charge then deal with some shithole company.

Fedex works great guys and half the time they dont weight your packages so go 3-4 pounds lighter on a 15 pound box and save yourself a couple bucks




Fedex has fucked up but for my volume I do with them their solid. Their tracking system sucks balls but who gives a ---- if it shows up in once piece thats all that matters

If you ship anything Air, there a very good chance it goes Fedex as they have contracts to use their planes.
