    Go with cheapest. It doesn't matter as long as package is insured.

    Except that USPS prices are better and they offer Sunday delivery.


    All these parcel carriers can suck. The part that makes the difference is the people involved in your area or with your particular package. If you have a good mail carrier, a good UPS guy or a good FedEx guy, chances are, you are golden. If you have people involved who have poor work ethic, you get crap service and broken items.

    Just sayin, my mail carrier is pretty awesome.

    Fedex isn't that widespread around here but UPS has been better than the dutch alternatives (PostNL/TNT) here.

    They are pretty darn tight on their schedule, I remember my GTX 680 got shipped through UPS and the tracking said it should arrive @ 4:30PM and it arrived @ 4:20PM.

    Whichever is cheaper. The cheapest would most likely be USPS though because of their flat rate shipping option (and the packaging is free too if ordered online).

    UPS & FedEx have a shipping calculator on their website..

    Just input the zip codes, box size & weight... will give you shipping costs.

    I always choose USPS when available and have never had a problem. It's also usually the cheapest.

    He didn't say they were the same. In fact, it's much more likely he is using UPS considering he is talking about the Netherlands.

    OP I have no clue why you would ask any of these guys this question. Its very clear not one has any idea what the best way most secure way to go is. It has always been "BH" BH is the best. BY HAND.. you take it your self ..you have to make sure it gets there you cant just trust ANYONE! WOW

    In other words..all kidding aside :).... I cant believe this question was asked. Like someone said.. each site you just type in the INFO and BAM! They tell you the price.
