| Burboy Member 58 Posts 12/03 |  Posted - Oct 31 2004 : 1:14PMHas anyone noticed that Five Star have removed their Fedex shipping option? Now, the only guaranteed shipping option available is Global Priority which is more expensive and slower! I was going to place another order when I found I couldn't choose Fedex which I used for previous orders. I'm a little worried that using Global Priority I'll possibly have to pay duties and on a large order that could get expensive! Has anyone used the Global Priority shipping option when ordering from Five Star? If so, how was the service, was it quick and did you have to pay any duties?  [Link] |
| Doolittle Member Netherlands 109 Posts 8/03 | Posted - Oct 31 2004 : 2:39PM I have used global priority with them once to ship dvds (including the cases) to the Netherlands. It was pretty fast (3 days, I think), and no duties, but your mileage may vary, of course. I think the risc to get caught by customs is even smaller for disc+artwork shipments only. But it's too bad that we have less choices. I have used the FedEx option also, and I loved the speed and tracking possibility.  [Link] |
| Burboy Member 58 Posts 12/03 | Posted - Oct 31 2004 : 4:48PM You're right about the flashing Fedex banner above this thread! I wonder why Five Star stopped offering the Fedex shipping option. I just ordered from them two weeks ago and used the Fedex option then! [Link] |

| Doolittle Member Netherlands 109 Posts 8/03 | Posted - Nov 1 2004 : 12:46PM BTW while I'm typing this, the 20$ / 30 discs FedEx banner still flashes sarcastically above the page... [Link] |
