express company

express company - These international express company charged so expensive.
Even it's beyond the goods' costs.
What's worse, it not seems as fast as it said.

Last week,I have an pakage for international deliery. At first, i called the UPS, they come to charge for cash that we don't have ups account.They would charge 1092RMB,that's too expensive,even my pakage has less costs than it. Then I choosed DHL,they charged 855RMB. My god!It's expensive too.I gave up at last. Finally,I choosed a nearby physical distribution company and paid 456RMB. I don't know why these international express company charged so expensive. Maybe the express fee is ten times as much as the pakage's costs.

I've had that problem too. I have a book that I need to send a friend in Russia. The book cost $9.00. It will cost $25.00 to send.

Did you send out the book by it at last? Sometimes, you can choose another express company. As I know, such like UPS?DHL are very expensive.
