Pack and Send $ 199 , 5-7 days .

No wonder that they are going broke. !!!they are A joke .

My rant

One of the reasons they are going broke is the outrageous salary they are paying their CEO, something in the order of $5million p/a

Whilst I agree about the outrageous salary, it pales into insignificance
when compared to just the cost of the sorting machines, let alone all

And pack and Send probably paid TNT or co $100 to transport the package, it's a pity the general public can't use these other carriers directly.
