I bought a used transmission for an antique automobile, and needed it shipped from Atlanta, Georgia to Calgary, Canada. I solicited several quotes from companies like Pakmail, UPS, and Fedex. The shipping was in the range of $650-$950, which ended up more than the cost of the item to be shipped. This discouraged me so I searched the web for another solution and found uship.com, where i obtained several bids, and selected a shipper whose price was very fair, more than 1/2 cheaper than the standard couriers. It was also very nice to talk and deal directly with the owner/driver every step of the way. Excellent positive experience. Thanks uship, have told everyone I know about you. Dan.
