crapshoot Good luck, i have sent several packages to Colombia via Priority mail. Most of the packages have arrived, howvere there are a few that never reached their destination and no one seems to know where they disappeared to.

I use them to send things on a regular basis from California to Cartagena with good results except when the postal workers went on strike...the package just sat there in a room for months, as they did not try to get the packages which were building up out to the intended recipients.....tracking only is good for stops in the US, but you have a better chance it will get delivered if someone on their end has to sign their name to a receipt that gets returned to you......maybe others have a differing experience....

Just my opinion...and brought to you by a kinder and gentler

Yes and won't ever use it again They lost some important paperwork in the past. I've used FedEx without a flaw and will only use them for 3-4 day service. It's expensive $75 for paperwork from the US. Now, if i'm sending paperwork or furniture or anything, I send it to Raphael at JJ Logistics in Miami, he forwards it all down there. It's funny that once in Miami, he has stuff at my door in 3-4 days just like FedEx. And for $75 I can ship about 30 lbs of other stuff also.

Mixed results with global priority mail Tried it twice, the first time it took a month (to cartagena) the second time it never got there. I'd feel better using servientrega.

i also use J.J.Logistics the minimum shipment weight is like 10-15 pounds at $2.40/pound.if you ship under that weight then they charge a little more.
