I'm wary of any shipper, after many troubles running shipping/receiving at my job for many years, and from packages (and mail) going astray and not delivered to my home (in a semi-rural setting) for the last thirty years.

At the job, I had so many problems with FedEx specifically, that I switched our "preferred" contract to UPS (which was much better, at least a decade ago).

At home, FedEx was once so bad that I would cancel orders if they were shipping via FE, but recently, they've been better (if I had no second choice but to use them). I've had several problems with UPS, too, but at least they were resolvable (unlike with FedEx, who'd lie directly to me, back then). And USPS has been a problem here in the sticks, delivering my mail and parcels to two other, very similar addresses, for thirty years (it seems the postal workers cannot read addresses). So, when I can, I prefer to order from Amazon if possible, because Prime delivery is more reliable, trackable on my PC, and they resolve problems almost immediately.

This order from Roskinc.com is mainly a test; I have no info how my order will be shipped. If I receive the goods in good shape, then maybe? I might send the EWS by Registered Mail, maybe.
