    Fastest Delivery time

    Hey good people,
    what's the fastest time for delivery of mail to the Philippines. Royal mail claim 3 to 5 days but in my experience it gets to the Philippines in 3 to 5 days then another 238 days to get through the Philippine postal system.......

    Any takers ?

    Cheers
    Andrew

    We just received an xmas card from PI !!!, so thats pretty much 2 months before it got here.

    I guess the fastest time is if you deliver yourself, in which case there is no point in having a mail system. Buy a very fit pidgeon, it would take less time to get that there than using mail. Either that or weep and pay Fedex astronomical amounts of money to send it - if your that desperate.

    I'd only ever send parcels/packages via courier, otherwise they only have a 10% chance of getting to the destination.

    Evry year I send Christmas cards at the end of October. One small packet 36pcs. in all. but this year it didn't arrived . So I pressumed it was stolen in the post in the Philippines.Not postal workers are bad but its mostly unlikely especially if its from abroad they think there's some money in it or other expensive thing.
    Regards,

    Ping
