Huh? Then things have changed recently because Adorama hasn't shipped OS for 
years, except perhaps for armed forces. 
B&H give you a choice of USPS, UPS Global and FedEx. I have an account there 
and tend to select UPS because it's quick, cheaper than FedEx by a huge margin 
and in this country, they know that items under $1000 do not need to be 
referred for import taxes. If it's over the threshold, they'll organise customs 
brokerage for me at a reasonable price which regular post will not.
FedEx may be good domestically in the US but my experiences of their 
international efforts have been bloody awful.
