Shipping stuff to Mexico
Be aware that our Mexican regular post service is a real Snail Mail.
If you use US postal service and they warranty you a 3 day delivery to Mexico, they will, but that is to his partner Mexican Postal Service, and once in Customs it will take more than 2 weeks to be actually delivered to the destination.
Use DHL, Fedex, etc. It is real fast.
Also when exporting something to Mexico, eventhough it is personal items, always declare a very very low value in the shipping slip.
Who receives it will have to pay as much as 23% of the value you declared, to release it from customs. Even for used clothes! and more than that for stuff that is not considered under the NAFTA agreement.
Have you had any bad experiences yet?
