A: While these are general assessments, we believe they are fairly accurate:

- UPS Worldwide Expedited - This is the lowest cost shipping method. To most counties, delivery is 3-10 days (Canada is typically 2-4 days). UPS can have more clearance costs and delays.

- Length of time for delivery - Carriers such as USPS can take weeks for delivery
- Clearance costs and hassles - We have used all carriers over the years and listened to feedback from our international customers as to how much additional clearance costs, paperwork hassle
