Cameras - Canadinas be aware of Supercircuits.com

[oxxyfx]

Hello,

I thought I worn people about this... I ordered 2 board cameras from supercircuits.com. I am canadian, and I was supprised to see that there are only 2 shipping options: UPS worldwide expedited - for 60 US and UPS wordwide Express for 65 US.

Originally I wanted to buy 1 camera, but thinking about these high shipping costs, I said I better make it worth for the money.

My supprise came once it has been shipped - it was shipped with UPS Ground - standard service... 7-8 days delivery... I thought I am missing something and I called them up - just to find out that they are correct and I am wrong - the UPS ground from Texas to Toronto for a half a pound package is 65 US, and it is not even express....

Anyway, I payed the price of these, I hope these arrive in one piece, and I will make lots and lots of FPV's with them...

Amazing price. And you will also have to pay custum fees. And if you are not at home at delivery time, you will need to go at the UPS central in your region. It took over 1:30h for me to go and come back.

OUCH!!! I guess Shortcircuits is not very Canadian friendly.... I can't understand why the gouging shipping cost! When I order items from the US, I tend to speak to the seller in person & ask them to ship the product via USPS. It's much cheaper and just as fast! UPS & Fedex in my experience has always been very expensive, but they are speedy when it comes to overseas deliveries. But so is EMS but cheaper!

Definitely, I'm regularly getting shipments via USPS global express, perfect service and price. Still, there are many companies I deal with who always refuse to ship with them and only want to use a Courier service :mad:
They quote BS like "They don't offer a sufficient tracking service" or so... while it's even better actually. In the end you don't have the choice, or you don't get the stuff... :censored:

The unfortunate option is that they didn't have USPS option. I asked them over the phone... Anyway, by the tracking information it should arrive tomorrow. Thanks for the notice about being home, I was clever there, the shipping address is at my workplace, so somebody is always there. (Me too... :)
