EMS is much safer,but more slowly...UPS is more quickly,but not so safe as EMS

The key here is to order in small quantities. DHL UPS and FEDEX is much faster, but riskier. They have their own planes and their own customs entry point. I have items conficated a few times from china to usa. EMS is safer, but much slower aks your chinese friends, they want to take the safer route because every time a shipment gets confiscated they have to refund the seller the full amount, it has happenned to me several times already. Insted of ordering 100 to 200 pieces at a time, I now order 10 to 20 pieces at a time every other day, and my seller sends them on different flights. I now it could be a pain to order every other day, but the way I see it, "fast quarters is much beter than slow dollars"

importing illegal stuff, you gotta think about the odds... I had stuff searched by customs several times before it arrived at my house. back in 2004, 3 customs guys personally delivered some stuff I had coming in, they asked a few questions and told me that a few items were taken by customs and had to sign a paper. I do not want to go through that again.
