Fast postal service

I don't want to talk bad about the Mexican postal service, but it took four weeks for a postcard from Sweden to reach my house in Monterrey, whereas it took Amazon.com, via Deutsche Post (German postal service) two weeks to send me four books from Germany to my house, how about that? Maybe it has to do with the fact that the German postal service is working together with DHL for international shipments. They sort of have an agreement. On the other hand, I am not sure the Mexican postal service is even working by itself!

Well, I can tell you that it is very much the same the other way around... Some of the cards we sent from Mexico hasn't even arrived two and a half months later...
