Tapacrap loads DWC for me. Maybe it's because I never upgraded.
No, it's not Tourettes.

Just when you think Taptalk can't get any more dumb. I won't bore you with the details, but it seems to be working now. You may need to clear the Tapatalk app cache in order to get it to forget the http site and start using https.

Good, I just had to work around more TT stupidity so it should be working for everyone now.

You might want to put up an FYI post on the main board to let people know.

Sure, was just waiting for confirmation that those who were having problems can now access the site.

I'm so happy that it's now safe to download farm animal porn on DWC.

FYI, I installed the latest version of the app and I can access DWC without issue.

Fwiw CGI was acquired by another company recently. I have been largely using https://shipinforsure.com lately.
:1: on IFS
I’m listing you two as my references with bogus phone numbers. Hope they don’t check.

I texted Jorge at CGI - they have in fact merged with Star8. Apparently there were notices on CGI's site. You can sign on to their new site star8ship.com using your CGI username and password.

I called them and emailed them. No answer at CGI. I have to say they have some of the worst comms of any company I have dealt with. :crybaby:

Has anyone ever actually had to file a claim with CGI? Just curious.

I shipped my Steinhart GMT to the buyer today.


I used USPS insurance; not a big deal since the selling price was only $450.


Still waiting to hear back from IFS Inforsure Inc.

I never signed up. They wouldn't respond to my emails.

I glanced at star8ship and they seem to do a monthly subscription regardless of how much volume you’re shipping.

Can’t justify that with my 2-4 shipments a year.

If you guys need the referral to IFS, just email me directly. IFS rep requested that we just funnel referrals directly to her so she can give appropriate pricing.

Thanks Matt. Is it similarly easy to CGI? Those guys made the process so simple.

I found the sign-up process very simple, and the online interface slightly better w/ IFS.

Wu- I’ll text you. Definitely need this if CGI has indeed gone the way of the dinosaur…
