Hi,

I just wanna know if it's safe to send jewelries to America thru mail like Fedex or something?

I learned my lesson the hard way. I wasn't on this site earlier this year so didn't know better. I sent a $250 heart shaped necklace with diamonds in it to the Philippines. It was in a large envelope type package like you send pics in plus I had her birthday card in there also with a letter. It was very inoccent looking. They only way for someone to see it would be to xray it and then steal it. It has been five months since it was mailed so we don't expect it to show up anytime soon.

I don't want judge people but their mail system overall sucks!!! I can't believe just regular letters can't even make it to a normal everday address. It is really despressing mailing things there unless I pay $30 plus dollars for a special delievery.

My fiancee will hopefully be here soon so no more mail and no more chatting. :thumbs:

Good Luck,

Charlie

I learned long ago from my Filipino friends not to send anything of value thru the regular mail to the Philippines. they even told me don't bother to send a Xmas card in Dec thru regular mail. there will be an assumption there's money in it.

Once I told my story to the local post office here in California they had the nerve tell me what you just posted. So I said, why didn't you say something to me when I mailed my stuff to the Philippines. This person happened to be the same person who mailed my stuff before. He was in shock because I remembered him. I told him, who wouldn't remember you as you cost me over $250 because my mail never arrived. I said you should have said something back then. He even asked what I was mailing so he knew. Shame on him!!

He is very careful what he says now to everyone. I had a talk with his Supervisor after all of this.

The best advice I can give someone is, shipper beware!!!!
