I have noticed that here in Colombia the post office does NOT use zip code !
But, can someone tell me the zip code for Colombia/Medellin? Someone has o send me a package and fedex asked for a zip !
Thanks in advance,
Zoltar

mcheasley says on Aug 29, 2009, 13:52: Greg, I remember the first time I needed to overnite documents to Medellin I called all 3 big guys (fedex, ups, and DHL) and they were all sky high.. I think it was approx $75.- $90. for an overnite (3-4 days) letter.... I went that route for a while til I stopped in at a local pack n ship place and they said FEDEX for $45. I have used them ever since... doesnt make sense, but who knows?
