posting art internationally

[leelastarsky]

I just received a parcel from thinkgeek.com that was shipped from the US on the 12th and arrived here today!! (15th. And actually it left the US on the 12th, which was the 13th here, so WOW!) It was shipped with DHL. It cost more, but WOW! I may look into that sort of service for art parcels in the future. Just for the security. I just about have a fit every time I put an art parcel to the hands of Australia Post. I haven't lost anything yet, (and I hope to god I never do!) and for that reason I get more nervous with each parcel that goes out, thinking that, statistically, it's bound to happen...one day... :~(


Oh, and now this LJ thing has really pissed me off because I can't select a custom friends group! *stabs*

Hi - just a quickie comment. You definitely can still choose a custom group. Just select "Custom" then check which group(s) you want at the bottom of the page where it says, "Show this entry to". Hope that helps. :)

I know! It isn't showing my groups either! I was _so_ pissed!

For the record, I don't like the change either.

OOh, what did you get from ThinkGeek? I bought my hubby several shirts from there.

I love that site.

I went to the "official" post to report the custom friends group issue, but about 5 bajillion people beat me to it. They said it will be fixed ASAP and it has something to do with javascript. Being a systems analyst I should probably know what they're talking about, but I so don't, lol.

My dad works for DHL in Barbados. Head of Security. :-D

I LOVE THINKGEEK.COM

I bought stuff for Tam for Christmas from there. Their shipping is awesome - even though it's expensive, when you take into account exchange rates (and you're buying more than just one thing), it's very awesome.

Oh the irony! DHL belongs to the German Post company and I get a fit about every time I bring an art packet to the post :D
