Q: Shipping from China to the United States

Has anybody had positive or negative experiences shipping their belongings from China to the US or other countries? I am getting ready to leave and have too much stuff to pack in my suitcases. The stuff I'll be shipping isn't essential so I'd prioritize low price over speed but reliability is most important of course.

Yeah, sometimes container ships aren't that good. I tried shipping 100 Chinese women in a container to the US but most didn't even survive the journey. The container company wouldn't pay me compensation either. Thankfully Jon Travolta paid a good price for the dead ones. The alive ones were of no use to him but I already had buyers lined up anyway.

I tried putting air holes in the women but that is what killed them.

Contact a removalist company that does international removal in the states and they will put you in touch with their people in China

A:I had a similar experience in HK. If I recall correctly, before or at the Z visa application, I had to submit ME from the ordinary HK clinic, where I explained why I need ME and I asked them to examine only necessary things (I don't remember the cost ...), and then ... I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski. ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ...
