Sending to UK makes me nervous. I've lost a couple of packages going there. They need to get their act together there.
Even my UK customers tell me their own Royal mail sucks donkey ass.
I second that opinion. I buy a lot of biking and sports goods from an UK e-store called Evans Cycles. Not only the Royal Mail offers a lousy service, but by default their international shipping does not have a tracking number. I've had orders from Evans take up to 65 days to arrive and know way of knowing where it was. I know it isn't Evan's fault: it is just Royal Mail that sucks big time.
Another e-store called Chain Reaction Cycles, located in Ireland, from whom I also by loads of mountain-biking apparel, has tracked parcels and their packages arrive in less than 15 days.
