  3. Agree, USPS is best for international. Costwise it is less and the customs hassle is far less for USPS. There are some size limits, so check on USPS web site and it gives the details. I have sent bumpers even, wrap good in cardboard and keep the size under the limits.
     
  4. I have shipped parts to Sweden several times,,I only us USPS,,it's pricy but a lot cheaper than some of the other alternatives. HRP

    On second thought, I deleted my fist post with a suggestion and make this one.

    You have been here over 5 years and all you have done is USE the HAMB as your free selling site. You have not once that I can see, contributed to the forum or given any help to fellow HAMBers. Today you make your first post on the forum, and it's a thread asking us for help so you can make $$$:confused::cool:...really.

    USPS is the cheapest way and totally reliable, it dosn´t take much longer then FedEx or UPS.
    Or you can shipp it thrue SoCal Shipping, they are sending a container to Stockholm every week.

    Lycka till (good luck) Ubbe

    I shipped a tranny to norway using DB Schenker. WAY cheaper than ups, USPS or Fedex--but it was a much heavier piece. but I'm guessing demented knows what he's talking bout :)

    Sickum Harv!

    34ratrodder don't forget to lay a bed of styrofoam pellets in the box, lay the grill on it and fill the rest of the box with them to protect the grill. The guy on the receiving would appreciate it.

    No,

    But with all the contribution I have seen from Harvey along with his level headed responses to some posts that most would handle differently,

    He is here by NOMINATED.

    He has a valid point.

    I think he sees it the same way I do. This individual is one of those who only joined the HAMB to sell his stuff to us or others who only joined to buy stuff out of the classifieds and now after who knows how long he finally posts on the board only to ask a question on how to ship something he sold in the classifieds.

    Then tell the moderators so they can make a decision or ignore the thread if you don't have real input.

    hello there to all . will it be a good idea to delete your own ad after your car your parts your items, are sold intead of type sold please close, you can do it by your selfs that way people stop inquiring about it what ya all think?

    </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
    Nope......

    For Alliance members if a deal goes bad - it allows Moderators to look at how the deal went down or bad and anybody that doesn't honor their deals we well....... Deal with.

    So now - deleting ads isn't favorable.

    For those who are not Alliance members - you buy and you sell at your own risk.

    ALSO - ANYBODY THAT IS JUST HERE TO SELL AND NOTHING ELSE WITH ZERO CONTRIBUTION TO THE GENERAL HAMB FORUMS AND ONLY HERE TO LINE YOUR POCKETS..... YOU WILL EVENTUALLY BE BANNED FOR TAKE , TAKE , TAKE AND NO TRADITiONAL HOT RODS OR CUSTOM CAR SUBSTANCE TO SHARE IN RETURN.

    My post was just an observation, the last paragraph above spells it out.<!-- / message -->
