I ordered a guitar from Germany and decided to try it more expensive, but faster via UPS. We reached Armenia quickly, there are no questions. But then there are a lot of questions.:
- for unknown reasons, they were detained for additional inspection (4-5 working days) and, of course, they spent all 5 days, for which they asked 6 thousand drams "for storage"
- from somewhere an additional fee of 10 thousand drams was charged to the customs broker, which is not mentioned anywhere
- the duty of 15% over the threshold was somehow rounded up, which added another 3 thousand drams on top, but I realized this later
In addition to all this, you will not be given any checks, transfers to cards or cash.
Bottom line: the timing is the same as regular mail, and the price is more than 2 times. Draw conclusions
Order underwear for 500 euros, delivery by UPS only. I thought, what kind of problems could there be? I ordered, but then I read the reviews, and I already said goodbye to the order. The hope was that I would find underwear in an employee's garage on an employee in a couple of months (a reference to one of the reviews about the monitor). However, everything was more or less normal: there were no notifications in the tracking, on the scheduled delivery day they called, asked for a passport, said that they would have to pay for the most cherished 2000 drams. Well, OK, the main thing is to get it. The order was delivered home to the address two days after the scheduled delivery date, but it turned out that another 2000 AMD was needed - this is the customs duty for exceeding the tax-free limit. OK, I paid, no checks, well, okay, the main thing is delivered. DHL is better, of course.
I was afraid to order a parcel from Germany via UPS because of the reviews, but everything went well. The goods had to be cleared, the broker's service cost 30,000 drams (+ an incomprehensible 2000 drams, which everyone writes about). The staff were always in touch, delivered the parcel home, and met the planned deadlines.
