No surface M-bags to Taiwan anymore .....

It was a really bad experience by shipping books to Taiwan this time. The USPS closes their service for surface M-bags to Taiwan now. It means the shipment of 60 lbs books to Taiwan will cost me $233 US dollars. Isn't it crazy? The shipping fee is even more expensive than buying the new books.

American baggage company is the one I found from those Google advertisement for international shipping services, after my few hours desperate internet search. I do not know if they offer the best prices but at least their price sounds to me is more comfortable. $135 for the books of 300 lbs. The disadvantage of such service is they only deliver the packages to the depot rather than your home. It means I will have to drive to warehouses to drop off or pick up my stuff, but, anyway, I save at leat $200 dollars per 60 lbs parcel. Hope it can be a pleasant experience with this small delivery company.
