DHL use to offer very competitive pricing vs Fedex

DHL (Cheapest) > Fedex > UPS (Most expensive)

I've used all three to ship car parts in the past and honestly they are the same.
I just look at whoever is cheaper.

USPS sucks.

you get what you pay for. i've never had a on time delivery with DHL, and neither have my friends. maybe it's the same if you're shipping, but not if you're waiting for the package to arrive.

usps has not given me any problems.

Ed, it really depends on what you are shipping. I wouldn't ship computer parts with DHL. I might with kendo equipment. I'll go USPS or UPS before I go dhl. Fedex hasn't given me problems as well. I even shipped a whole laptop back to Florida for repairs.

I've had Fedex damage and lost my stuff before.
So it really depends on luck I guess.
I usually just slap bunch of fragile sticker and hope it doesn't get damaged.

Fedex are usually pretty on time about delivery.

I wonder if they are going to pull a K-mart.

think that's what they're trying to do... to get past the holidays to turn things around where other places will fail...
