Royal Mail and USPS

Dman001 · 2007-10-22 17:49:23

Does anybody know what would be quicker, USPS Global Priority Mail or Royal Mail(because they are on strike)? I want to buy something on Ebay but I am not sure whether to buy it from the UK or USA.

The Royal mail strike is only effecting certain areas. I've had a few packages off eBay and Play.com in the last week or two and haven't noticed any delay over the normal delivery time. USPS normally takes a minimum of one week and often up to two. Remember that you may be liable for VAT on something coming from US so take account of that before you buy.
