is $15k liquid considered rich in ATOT? I always thought rich meant being able to afford a nice car... and a driver.

uship.com is a good way to get a cheap figure. Brokers bid on your shipment, then you can use their services, or take their total and shop that around. I'm sure if you palletize your ex wife's stuff, it'll be easier to get it into a container.

$15k liquid? Not sure what you mean. That wasn't all my cash, never said I was rich though...
 
I think you should put her stuff on a canoe and just push it into the water... if it doesn't make it to Japan, then maybe it's just lost at sea...

lol bro, it's looking like several thousand dollars in shipping. I am figuring it's going to add up to about 300lbs at least and probably measure out about 3 to 4 cubic feet

I have no problem dropping a few thousand bucks on things I want to spend it on, on my ex-wife I am not so crazy about it.

My obligation is to get the stuff to her DOORSTEP in Japan, not to the port. So it's making it more complicated.

I am going to try Uship.com and I am having her get all her shit together by the next week minus whatever clothes/personal items she must have for the last month she is here.

Personally, I'd love to set fire to all her shit, pack her in a box and ship her USPS Priority...I'd be getting off cheaper.

She's refusing to sign my quit claim deed until her shipment is secure.

Thought I saw somewhere that he makes over 100k, so yeah, was thinking this too unless it was just a joke.

Price out sending it in individual boxes, might be cheaper, and you'll get satisfaction knowing she will have like 100 boxes coming in the mail, staggered over a couple weeks. :twisted: Make sure you send an empty box last, with a picture of the troll face inside lot of packing peanuts.
 
be a monster and carry that crap to japan yourself

why'd he lose the car? I thought he was giving her the watches, the ferrall cat colony, and pawned the wedding ring to settle this divorce? Did she bend him over?

lol at the mad motherfucker.

so much lol.

kthx to you too.

I am indeed going through a divorce that finalizes 3/6. Got to ship her shit as part of the agreement.

Get a life, bro.

I will be on a beach with the love of my life all next week.

I would suggest you find help or prove where I have been wrong.

If future ex-wife #3 is the love of your life, what were your previous two spouses?

LOL, weren't you saying a few weeks ago how "amicable" the split has been?

doesnt sound like he lost the car directly, but due to other divorce related expenses it's no longer feasible to own.

I need to get my ex-wife's stuff back to Japan. Things aren't looking to cheap to do this. FedEx wants $1500+ for a 50lb box and DHL hasn't gotten back to me yet.

USPS is about $300-450 per box of that size.

Any options on a palletized shipment?

Thanks

Ship it freight. Should be cheaper, but it takes a while.
