I agree with nh. I've had more than awesome shipping service with C-Bid. I have noticed that DHL ROCKS whereas UPS is not so hot. I had no idea about this US Postal Service tactic. I am sure that if C-Bid were aware of this, they would tell UPS that this form of delivery is unacceptable. It would hurt their business too much. This may be some local area arrangement that affects only your area. I'd definitely let C-Bid know what happened. I'm sure they would be willing to ship to your area using only DHL.

Please let us know what happens, by all means!
