For those who are newly married, if you’re a gadget geek and want a wedding ring, then I think you’re going to love this. The Gear Ring, designed by Kinekt Design, is made of stainless steel. The real geeky thing about these rings gottabe the rotating gears.

You can get those in HERE for KD 47.5

Thanks Ahmad

 





Aramex just sent me an email telling that they have changed their pricing structure and they began with the heavy packages which weight above 10kgs they will offer 30% discount on the total shipping charges, the question is what if I got lets say 3 packages and their total weight is above 10kgs? do I get a discount? or it has to be single package?

We have reviewed DHL EasyShop back back in 2008 when it was called DHL @ Home Service. Back then it was different. There was no tracking system and no website to go with the service. The prices they charged were a joke and their packages get stuck in customs every single time.

Now to the current rebranded forwarding service, DHL EasyShop. I read about it in more than a blog and you can notice that people are just frustrated with Aramex and are reaching for something else, not sure what aramex did to break the camels back, but I welcome change if there is something new and better. I consider the rebranded DHL service new because it took what was potentially a great forwarding service and actually made it a great service. So many things has changed and it’s mostly for the better.

I ordered 5 packages and had them sent to DHL, all 5 were light; 3 below 0.5KG and 2 above. This is what I have to say about the service:

Pros:

1-The tracking system is great. Just great. Very detailed. I had it connected to my mobile so that every update gets pushed to the iPhone and it worked perfectly.

2-The pickup place doesn’t close till 12am which is very convenient for those of you, who like myself, have to work till after 4pm.

3-The shipping takes exactly 4 days. I had 5 packages, each shipped separately with a different tracking number, and all 5 of them took 4 days to arrive.

4-The price I paid for the 5 packages was very reasonable. I paid KD22.5.

Cons:

1-They don’t deliver.

2-They found only 2 out of the 5 packages at first, and I had to look for and provide all the tracking numbers for all of the 5 packages in order to find them.

I find this experience with dhl enough to make me switch.
