db1 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 hey guys, well- i guess king is super quick with shipping the goods! she shipped my rep almost instantly after completing my order and provided with a tracking number that shows well on the EMS.cn site. now, im kind of worried, i told her i want a "low-profile" shipment, but she had shipped with EMS.. which is IMO a big gamble when handling a rep, since once the SOBs see an express package/envelope they might think it hold something valuable and open it up. im a lil' nervous right now cause of that.. should i be worried? hopefully the rep is inside a bubble envelope and not a box (which maybe reduces the risk by a few percents) db1
blue_sphere Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 Dont be worried. EMS regularly comes through. Best of luck with your new watch.
Toadtorrent Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 First rep jitters...heh heh. EMS is fine...the standard...no worries. FEDEX/DHL are bad...
db1 Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Posted December 8, 2008 Toad: hehe... actualy not the first rep =] gonna be my 9th rep in the collection, but i had never tried EMS for shipping. i use to stick the lowest profile shipping all the time (registerd) to avoid risks as much as possible. as much as i have heard the "guys" triple check the "express" parcels (priority grade shipping = valuable goods?) thanks for your tip i guess i shouldn't worry then i'll let you all know once i get it (a secs @ 9 SS daytona from king) db1
PhilipM Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 as much as i have heard the "guys" triple check the "express" parcels (priority grade shipping = valuable goods?) It will have a label for customs with a description and a value. This is needed. Often it will be low value, and description will just be watch, sometimes gift too.
db1 Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Posted December 8, 2008 It will have a label for customs with a description and a value. This is needed. Often it will be low value, and description will just be watch, sometimes gift too. hopefully king marked "gift" like i told her. "watch" is a nasty word @ customs, fingers crossed hopefully i'll have no problem. db1 =]
digitalnrg Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 EMS is the safest way imo. Dont worry, it will go through just fine
andreww Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 Like the OP stated, registered mail is by far the safest method, but provides no tracking and can take a month or more to receive. Unless you live in a problem area like Germany, Italy, or Texas, you should be fine. EMS is the second safest method.
