How to send a small package to Colombia?

I seem to recall the last time I saw this topic that the consensus was to use Servientrega in Miami...?
Does any one have recent experience doing this?
Thanks in advance!

Avianca Express I have used Avianca Express several times and always ontime, always in great conditions, very reasonable prices.
Customs in Colmbia are tight now days, so I recommend to declare a reasonable value of whatever you are sending.

The thing with the USPS... ...is that sometimes your package can take a long, long time to arrive, if you're sending it cheaply. The upper estimate will probably be closer to the truth. That's usually been the case when relatives have tried to send mail/packages to me.

Other than that, I would also prefer to use Servientrega or other private couriers, if it's something important, but it's not the only choice.

The last time... ... I sent a small package to Colombia via USPS, I paid for the 15 day delivery service. 15 days turned into 3 months. But hey, it at least made it ok.

'what does it mean, when one of you (colombians) tell another: YOU WERE NOT/ARE NOT. 'COLOMBIAN ENOUGH'?? jejeje..a mixture, I think, of stupidity mixed with a false sense of arrogance.. How 'colombian' do you have to be? to be 'colombian enough
