Since Christmas, I have received several "complaints" that modules shipped
overseas by US Mail is taking a very long time to arrive.

I think that customs offices are to blame, as well as generally slow mail
service.

Also: these types of packages ARE NOT TRACKABLE. We cannot track them for you.
Chances are, they are just sitting in your local customs office/post office.

Now, there are ∗2∗ ways that we can ship so that your modules can be tracked AND
delivered in less than 5 days: UPS Global and EMS.

Both of these methods are fully tracked (UPS has station-by-station tracking,
EMS does not but I've never had a lost EMS package in 9 years). Of course,
either method is expensive - $35 for the first module, $18 for each module
after that. Rails add $18/pr.

So, if you ∗really∗ want to be able to track your shipment and get about 4 day
delivery, just put EXPRESS SHIPPING in the comment field.
