Which shipping company to us when buying off e-bay or Amazon
Shop around
EPS does have a site in Jarabacoa, at C/ Marionelson Gal?n esq. S?nchez, Edif. Don Oscar, Modulo 1E, ph. (809) 574-7777.
EPS has a good reputation. But, be aware, they are a freight forwarding company that includes an air freight portion of its transport. The tariff is reasonable for very small shipments and documents. However, when you moving large articles it is best to shop around to see about availability and cost of similar articles in the DR vs the combined cost and freight charges of offshore purchases.

We are mainly looking at shipping children's educational toys bought of Amazon. The price here is so high that it is probably cheaper with shipping charges. I was aware of EPS and have used them for documents, but my question I guess should have been has anyone used the company I referred to: Domex
I also use "EPS", have for years, never a problem, and ONLY for shipments less than 5 or 6 pounds.
The charge is about $5.oo US a pound.
I am thinking of getting an account at "Encargopak", as they are cheaper, and, like "EPS", also have an office near my house.

"EPS" is on "Camino Chiquito" near the new "La Cadena" Super.
"EPS" delivers.
"Encargo Pak" is near "Plaza Botanica", and Super National.
Directly Across from "Helados Bon, and "Taco Bell"!

EPS is not perfect. They have a constant problem with packages delivered to them with USPS, they show up in their system and get processed 2-3 days after the actual delivery. When I asked them about that, they tried to lie to me that USPS mark a package as delivered in their tracking system, but deliver it later. That was just a typical Dominican bullsh@t, one day when I was in Miami I went personally to the USPS office that delivered my USPS package to EPS and got a proof that it was delivered 2 days ago, after EPS employee in Miami lied to me that it was not delivered yet. I had a problem with a couple packages that were delivered but lost in their warehouse, and they were found 2 weeks later after EPS agreed to pay a compensation to me. But there are no problems with FedEx or UPS packages, they register the delivery of them the same day always.
Also EPS is the worst service for a regular mail (USPS envelopes with no tracking number) forwarding, since they combine all the mail in Miami and then ship it to DR maybe once in 2 weeks. So it takes faster to get a mail directly from US to Dominican mail address than via EPS. This happened to me more than 10 times and I finally stopped using them as a regular mail forwarder, and use them only for packages.
