Hernan,
The package has not been delivered and no one is answering the phone in Miami or in Bolivia. The Bolivian cell phone is shut off.
What is going on????
and here is a direct quote of their entire response:
That ****ing package was sent yesterday and the info is below. I do call you many times and seems that you dont want to answer your phone. So stop putting pressure on us, we are doing the best to do our job regarless of the strikes and riots that are happening here in Bolivia.
Do you know anything about insurance ?

Not sure why you are cursing at your customer. I merely asked what was going on. How am I supposed to know there are riots in Bolivia??? And as for me not answering my phone perhaps it is because I'm out of the country and it is shut off. Maybe you should've tried sending an email like I did.
Up until your last email I was very happy with your service. Now...
Let's hope the package arrives and we can just go our separate ways.
You should learn to have patience with your customers. They ARE your business.

and his response:

so, lesson learned? anti-semitism and racism are alive and well even in friggin pissant bolivia, and don't use btc cargo express.
despite all his bullshit, andi did recieve the package, albeit late. the reason was allegedly that there were strikes and riots in la paz, which very well may be true. what is unforgivable is his lack of communication and the way he treats his customers.
also, despite his "cheap jew" rant, i didn't save any money, andi did, and last i checked, he wasn't jewish, unless of course he converted somewhere in the atacama or altiplano. and his service was only marginally cheaper than DHL.
