Hi guys!!
I was wondering if someone can share what company you use for International shipping ? I was at the USPS the other day and parcel Int. shipping price was really reasonable but they told me theres no way to track or get a confirmation if the package got to their destination :S

    I use usps all the time without tracking numbers and haven't had any problems. If you use, priority international, the product gets there lightning quick. I shipped something to New Zealand on a Friday and it got there on a Monday. I haven't used parcel post international.

    I use USPS First Class International, you can get the customs forms for free online or at your post office and it's pretty cost effective.

    No tracking though, but I've never had a problem, I've shipped to the UK, Canada and Ireland with no problems.

    If you use Priority Mail instead you get tracking but it's pretty costly.

    I am new to Storenvy, but I having been selling on eBay for several years. When I first started I used USPS and had several issues with packages being lost, customers saying they never received it (even though tracking said it was delivered) or long delays due to customs. I now use DHL which I have found to be more reliable than any of the USPS services. I pay $33 to $35 to ship anywhere in the world. DHL has their own customs clearance process which allows them to deliver the package within 3-4 business days. DHL automatically provides tracking and signature confirmation on all packages. I was able to find a third party company that provides these discounted rates. It's worth looking into. I would be happy to put you in contact with my provider if you are interested.
