I'd rather take a chance in shipping a case of New Testaments to a post office box in the Kandahar Valley than risk a shipment of anything to Mexico.
Yep.
I ship stuff to a business site in Mexico pretty often. The ONLY way to get it there semi-reliably is FedEx Express, and using the FedEx broker. And sometimes it still gets held up for several days.
I once had a shipment of 4 sealed white 5-gallon plastic buckets, each with its own waybill. They all made it to the FedEx facility in Mexico City. ONE OF THEM somehow got on the FedEx flight to SHANGHAI, CHINA. I called FedEx and put a trace on it. They eventually found it in Shanghai, and shipped it back to the FedEx Asia/Pacific hub in Anchorage, AK. Then it went to Memphis, then finally back to Mexico City, where it joined the other 3 buckets patiently waiting. They all cleared customs and eventually made it to their destination in Mexico.
I didn't know whether to be mad at FedEx for losing it in the first place, or amazed that they managed to find it and ship it back around the world to the correct destination.
