[QUOTE="Cross-7, post: 1370835, member: 24538"] Small items shipped via UPS is no problem. Big items that have to be shipped via truck freight are prone to damage and freight is costly. Most carriers shipping that far interline with another carrier or two before it reaches you. Tracking and lost shipments are a pain. You can file a claim in lost or damaged item but they are hard to collect from and if multiple carries are involved they point the finger at each other and none owning up to it. So depending on how fragile and expensive it is would determine whether it's worth chancing Edit to add we ship a lot into Mexico, but we have it delivered to sort facility in El Paso and they are responsible for delivery after that for afore mentioned problems, but even shipping from Texas to Nebraska has been problem with interline freight and damages Also you may have to pay a tax getting into the US. Not sure all our products going to Mexico has to have paperwork stating county of origin [/QUOTE]
