UPS is fast (from clicking 'submit order' to K3 box in my hands in under 48 hours), but I won't mind waiting a few days and save about 300 Euro if USPS is slower. I wonder if USPS or their Belgian partner handles clearing the box through Belgian customs like UPS does. I have had nothing but troubles with these red tape lovin' kafkaesque bureaucrats, so I'd rather see the carrier handle the customs part. That would be in favor of UPS. Has anyone in EU tried USPS and if so are you happy with it? 73 de Franki ON5ZO ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net/ Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
