I have hired Omega Shipping for moving services in December 2008. I agreed to a quote of @6650.00 to partial pack my belongings, dissemble some of my furniture , load and move it in an AC-Storage until it will be shipped to New Zealand, if I should get the visa. Other locations were discussed, because to get a Visa is difficult and I had to be in the country to apply for. I paid a deposit of 50% $3760.00
3 month later I had to go to the storage to remove some of my items and I realized that my stuff was not entirely in an AC Storage as I requested. Instead the items were on several locations. After a fight they agreed to move my stuff free of charge completely in an AC Storage. I insisted that the storage contract is under my name. 
Now 10 month later I decided to move back to Germany and I have called Omega to arrange the shipment. They gave me a price of 4650.00 this would have been okay, if they would have subtract the deposit payment of 3760.00, but they refused to do so.
 
They insisted that this are the costs even Germany is 4000 miles and New Zealand is 8000 miles away from Miami. 
What means that I had paid $ 3760 for 4 people working from 10 am to 4 p.m. in my house and probably 3 hours more to unload the items and put them in storage. What would mean I have paid $418 per hour or $104.50 per person including using the truck. This is a huge rip off. 
The good thing is, that my stuff is in a storage facility paid from myself, so I am free to hire a reliable company to ship my belongings to Germany. After this incidents  I have done more research about this company and there are more horror stories to find. So stay away from Omega Shipping, the Sales person is friendly and the quotes are okay, but in the end you will pay much more, especial if you are in another country and it will be hard for you to deal with them.
