US Shipping help!

[ari4l2010]

Working on a deal with someone in Detroit for a card online. I would like the card before the weekend to get it graded at Expo. Guy says "I only have one option to ship for $10 with customs number to track. I can mail immediately, but it's a regular wait." My question is, is there a place on USPS where it says package will be delivered by X days? I'm in Mississauga, Ontario.

If you're willing to pay, you can use UPS or Fedex. Overnight will be costly though. Not sure about priority overnight for USPS however.

On the USPS site, a price can be calculated and depending on the postal service, there is an estimated arrival date for each one:

1. You can pretend you're the seller by selecting the destination is Canada.
2. Select -Calculate price based on Shape and Size
3. Fill out the weight - i would select Large Envelope - depending on how many cards I guess?
4. After clicking next, you can put in the US zip code (A general Detroit would be okay) and then your zip code.
5. Once you add than in the next page will be the shipping options and pricing.

Note:
Global Express Guaranteed® (GXG)** is pretty fast 1-3 days, but doesn't take in account customs time
Priority Mail Express International™ - I've had some packages get to Canada within the estimated days or take longer

Let me know how it goes and if you have any questions!

USPS Express is pretty much you're only option at this point.

As a side note, you're putting your seller in a tough position. Not only are you demanding that he ship immediately, instead of at his normal intervals, but you're also making him feel as if he'll end up with negative feedback regardless of his effort if the item doesn't arrive on time. I personally don't comply with requests like yours due to those two things.

Not demanding anything. Just simply asking if it's possible. I said I would split the shipping with him and he said he ships as he needs to. I was simply just asking what are the possibilities to do this. I would never leave negative feedback for someone who was trying to do me a favour!

Hey Ari, just checking in to see if you still needed help with figuring out shipping costs or ETA?
