UPS is at it again...Jacking up the prices...

I am sure FedEx and USPS will not be far behind...

The following changes will take effect on December 24, 2017.
•   The rates for UPS® Ground, UPS Air and International services, as well as UPS Air Freight rates within and between the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico, will increase an average net 4.9%.
•   The dimensional weight divisor for packages less than or equal to one cubic foot in size (1,728 cubic inches) will be 139 for all U.S. domestic services subject to Daily Rates or Alaska and Hawaii Rates.
•   Criteria and pricing for Additional Handling and Large Package surcharges will change.


So, take advantage of the upcoming RPM sales happening at the end of this year before UPS jacks the prices again.

We will have the black Friday/weekend sale as well as the Christmas sale in early December.

This holiday season contributing members will receive an additional 2.5% discount over the listed discount.

From October 19 their tracking system shows "processed through facility" in San Francisco for the package you sent to me. They are not even capable of providing up to date information, but important thing is they raise the prices. I'm mad at the postal service in general, everywhere.

Ivan,

I just tried to track the package and I get this message:

This service is currently unavailable.

We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

Go To USPS.com


I will continue to check and see if I can get more information. Unfortunately the USPS tracking info can only be updated if the receiving country sends the information to them. If your postal system and/or customs does not update USPS then there will not be any updates.

USPS 1st class used to have a delivery time of 14-21 business days for delivery. They have since removed that time frame a couple of years ago due to the receiving countries customs holding packages longer than the "advertised" amount of delivery days.

One thing I have learned shipping packages all over the world, priority mail does get there quicker and does not seem to spend as much time in the receiving countries customs process.

I will move this over to email for any further updates I receive.

It has a hit this afternoon in Croatia.

So, we know know it has been "processed through the facility" there. Hopefully it will be out for delivery to you very soon.

We have gotten several emails regarding shipments to Australia, while we were at Daytona racing. I have gotten back to all the emails personally but also want to put this out there. This is the message I received from the USPS

"With regards to shipments to Australia - they announced at the beginning of this month that they have currently limited the amount of incoming shipments due to COVID-19
Australia is locked down for commercial flights, which are responsible for a vast majority of the packages and mail being transported into the country  While First-Class Package and Priority Mail are unavailable, you can continue to use Simple Export Rate for qualifying shipments to Australia as they utilize their own system for transport

That said, we are recommending to users that you only ship to Australia at the moment if absolutely necessary as they are seeing a major backlog - so delays are inevitable and returned or sometimes missing packages are becoming more common at this time...
We also want to stress the importance of getting insurance on these packages, to be sure you are able to get reimbursement in case there are any issues during the shipment process

If you would still like to use this service, you certainly can - but I do want to let you know that USPS will not honor the $200 included insurance for Priority Mail Express if the package is lost/missing/damaged unless you are purchasing your label directly at the Post Office. Second, they will not issue refunds for the International Express delivery window guarantee due to the current state"


That said I am going to talk to pop about disabling the Australia shipping as if it get lost I don't want to be out the product plus an expensive shipping cost that won't be refunded and we surely do not want you guys not getting your products either.

Another thing I was just made aware of, is at the beginning October through the end of December, USPS and other shippers will be temporarily raising prices for "increased holiday traffic" We will be reflecting these price increases as well.
