Wheel Nightmare / Part 2 / KOREA?

this is why you make it a point for any company you buy things from internationally to ship with fedex express (especially for canada). im not sure which service on ups' side you need to use, but with fedex express, they have a dedicated customs division to expedite items like this.

(note: i used to work for fedex express). if you ship via fedex express, not only do you not have to pay an outrageous customs fee, as soon as the label is printed and submitted to fedex, the entire customs process starts. and hopefully by the time it lands, the customs process is complete and customs officials can check the shipment and get it out to you ASAP. if there any issues (such as this one, where your wheels ended up in korea), you have an agent who will do all the work for you. i dont know how USPS works, but i know most, if not all government agencies take their sweet time.

anyway...sorry for the blurb. hope you get your wheels in a timely fashion!
