i was given these option as postage method:

- Priority Mail International $57.00
- Express Mail International $71.10
- UPS Worldwide Expedited $166.38
- UPS Express Saver $171.38

first 2 option is USPS (Slow and unsafe) and the other 2 is UPS..

i need to know, if i'm using UPS, is it guaranteed safe and arrive at my door step? the UPS tracking can track from USA until Malaysia or not? (unlike USPS only track within USA, then u dunno where your package is, only pray for it to arrive).. my 1st order tooke 3 weeks and half to arrive, my 2nd order is still not arrive (3 weeks alrdy, posted on 21st may)

which to choose? worldwide expedited or express saver?

p/s: item cost only USD50, postage using UPS is triple the value, but still worth it..

What are you buying? If item cost only $50 it's not worth that kind of postage
Try using hopshopgo. Probably cheaper

Btw usps express mail international is delivered by pos laju. It's trackable and probably the most worthwhile option here

flavor extract for ejuice, after expensive postage also still cheaper than buying from semenanjung, plus it's high quality and taste/smell expensive.. after expensive postage i still buy it at RM0.44 per ml (exact cost without postage is only RM0.09 per ml) while from peninsular they give me RM0.50 per ml..

semenanjung punya flavor extract smell weird and kinda cheap food flavoring, the US is from perfumist 1, good quality and food grade flavoring..

what i need to know, UPS is gooding or not? gerenti sampai or not? takut spend so much but hilang later, hahaha

Have u consider about cost and time?
If for personal use I would seriously just buy it locally.
If for business then consider shipping from overseas

BTW you can try the comsgateway they offer shipping cheaper 50%

normally can track once sampai malaysia (kastam/pos klia). key that under pos daftar (for first class USPS, pos laju for priority/express) tracking (from outside MY). if it does not exist...it is not here yet.

but my latest shipment, arrived, but not in system. so...i dunno if system down or they never key in to their system.

tell u if use those fast shipping and express post...the chance of kena customs very high...they love to open it to see if taxable bo.
for me priority international is good enough...i use that....most time reach within 2 weeks....most fast 1 week,most slow 3 weeks.
last time i buy iphone 5 using priority mail all tak kena.my friends buy 5s using dhl 2 days already sampai malaysia..straight kena customs...dhl clear for him...charge rm580 for its service and the tax.

depend on the weight n size. normally my package is 50cm x 50cm x 50cm. shipping cost around 30 - 40 usd, if use normal DHL gonna cost me over 100usd. and never kena tax bcoz all of my items are labelled as food item (food flavoring).
