There's an import I want to purchase from a guy in Japan. He offers airmail for $2.50 and Ems for $12.00. I don't care how long it takes for it to arrive, as long as it arrives. Would airmail be safe?

Depends how well he packages it. Airmail should exist fine but is not trackable or insureable.

Depends on the value of the item. If it's worth a fair agglomeration you lot really should spring for EMS, it's much much faster and trackable.

I've got 3 items (off of ebay) from Japan using Airmail. My get-go parcel never arrived. I went through major hassles, and in the end, received my money back from the seller. (Took half-dozen+ months...ARGH!) The other two arrived just fine, though it took 3+ weeks to become to me!

I use air mail from Nihon and Hong Kong all the time. No problems still. Transit times vary merely the average for me is under a week.

When Im importing good stuff from Asia, if the item costs more that $xx, I usually leap for the Ems mail. Ya deceit become wrong with tracking and insurance.

Aforementioned with me, if it'south a somewhat valueable item or something I know I will take trouble getting another one of (similar a game I looked for months on EBay to go), so I will go the EMS.

Does UPS or FeDex offer tracking for overseas packages?

Considering the similar-new condition of the game and the fact that this is the get-go time I've seen it on ebay in a few months, guess I'll do Ems.

Boxing Assurance. Anyways back to the original question, I used EMS, I wanna play it ASAP.
