    could barley get up the hill into my neighborhood. I was in 4wheel sliding side to side all the way up..

    the hill is named after a beautiful flower and it just eats up vehicles. the fedex driver looked up and said nope and just skipped it.

    Should be a way to put WEP password protection, at least, to protect that from happening... Ask your provider what you can do.

    Should have charged them damage fees for my driveway, a bag of salt and labor to get that guy out of my way... My car made it just fine.

    had that problem with UPS?

    i worked for them in shipping, fucking grunt work in a warehouse with 400 employees who all look like convicts. Awesome job, love the multi nationality language environment.

    that company cuts so many corners you think they work for nazis.

    I've always found UPS to be the worst for huge brokerage charges. It really sucks that you have no idea what they'll charge you until you get a package. Sometimes it can almost double the price.

    no idea charge tell get package? really?

    I know what I pay before its shipped.


    The hill has also claimed many other vehicles.

    Driver don't seem to know what to do. Cause i drove up that hill in a civic for years.

    If some dude 79 loved Nascar he would make it.

    get some damn speed, calculate and cut the corner and keep the speed to the top so you can break if needed.

    people back up and go strait out of some comedy.

    massive tree branch fell in driveway. all 3 rigs are moved up so trees don't fuck them up.

    If I order from within Canada, I know exactly what I'm paying. If I order from the US, I (usually) have to pay brokerage fees. They can vary a lot from carrier to carrier, but I generally find UPS to be higher than USPS or Fedex.

    If got rid of boarders in North America. Mexicans would make us great food with good vibes, Canada would pass peace with a good steak, and America would agree with a hunting and protection...

    marinade included.

    i wont deal with any of those companies....if it cant come usps i wont buy it..usps goes right to canada post


    from china doesnt seem to matter...whatever they pick over there gets delivered to canada post at customs and always comes with no extra fees unless its worth a lot (i had to pay tax on a plasma cutter once) but no brokerage crap

    I bought $100 worth of tshirts online and had to pay around $20 for brokerage through USPS/Canada Post, but usually there are no fees. Not sure why there was this time.

    I'm writing a paper about enforcement of drug use/abuse, and now that I'm on the section about marijuana prohibition, I just want to smoke it instead of writing about it.

    it was probably just regular taxes plus maybe a $5 fee for collecting the taxes on behalf of customs....fed ex would have charged the taxes on delivery and then not inform you about the additional brokerage fee invoice in the mail about a month later for over $30
