To be fair German efficiency combined with Fedex is usually
excellent, although I'm picking you're biased towards the former.

<br>
It's DHL that do my head in... I am constantly amazed at how
frustrating they can be!<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Cost doesn't matter. You did still
get what you would expect, though: German efficiency in the
first case, and in the second case the American service provider
failing on a supposedly simple job (but wait, now that they've
lost it, you've got an insurance claim, and I am sure you will
find yourself before a US court in no time at all - and then may
God have mercy on your poor soul! (Oh, and it doesn't matter if
you don't believe in either, because they've got enough faith
over there to cover you in that regard as well...))<br>

Ordered a pile of small antenna bits from a company in
Germany on the 22nd of December, paid for 'economy shipping
- German Post office' of $5 Euro not expecting anything to
be fast this time of year.<br>
<br>
In contrast, I ordered a electronic module from another
German company back in the 1st week of December, Only
shipping option Fedex. They lost it, and are processing the
insurance claim now. <br>
<br>
Sometimes you just don't get what you pay for with shipping.<br>
<br>
Oh, and happy new year, don't post to here very often these
days. :-)<br>
<br>
Cheers, Chris H.<br>
