Okay this is what we ordered:


1 x One Gallon (4.5 pounds) Granular Ferric Oxide PELLETS
Options $69.99 $69.99
1 x Two Gallons (6 pounds) Activated Lignite Carbon
Options
*Carbon Partial Size : Small (Most efficient)
+ $0.00 $26.99 $26.99
3 x 100ml Graduated Measuring Cups

3 x One gallon jug with one once dispenser
Options $3.99 $11.97
2 x One Cartridge Refill (1.25 pounds) Nuclear COLOR CHANGING Resin
Options $11.99 $23.98
Billing Information

Then this was the shipping and Grand total from Bulk Reef Supply:

United Parcel Service (1 x 15.35lbs) (Canada Standard): $27.94
Sub-Total: $135.30
Total: $163.24

Then when it got here i paid: $10.00 brokerage and $8.16 G.S.T for a total of 18.16 to the UPS man at the door

Pretty good deal i think....It arrived here in the 5 days as promised and no UPS site didn't update untill it was actually in my door. But it did tell me the date of delivery and showed when it went through customs so it gave you an idea....of where it was on what day...

I agree, UPS is the way to go especially at the reduced brokerage rates, only reason I mentioned USPS is some folks can't get a UPS delivery. Lot of rural areas are not serviced by UPS or PO boxes.

While the above is a step forward it's not much help to me, the number one thing I want out of tracking is to know when it is going to arrive, the above just lets you know that your package still exists and it may be getting closer : )

we are happy to ship via usps upon request but we find it is only cheaper on high value packages or packages that are light and small. A very small percentage of our orders fall into those categories.
