<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 323079, member: 1101&quot;]You seem to have ignored my comment about the US&#039;s size and the volume issues faced by the USPS.&nbsp; I was simply assessing the level of service provided to various countries&#039; postal services to illustrate that it is wrong to assume that other postal services are necessarily inferior.&nbsp; Also, if you compare apples to apples to the extent possible, such as delivering a letter 200 miles away, for example, Royal Mail will reliably do it overnight for the cost of a letter stamp, while the same class of servcie will take a couple days at least in the US, maybe more.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As for your personal track record, you have a few years on me but much better luck.&nbsp; I guess I send/receive a much larger volume of mail than you do, as I have had numerous incidences of lost, misdelivered, or damaged mail.&nbsp; The record of the USPS is still exceptional, and it is probably a better value for the money than most major postal services (which tend to be very expensive), but it is not perfect.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It is each seller&#039;s right to ship or not ship internationally, but I think at least some of the supposed obstacles are dubious: &quot;paperwork&quot;???&nbsp; Are people referring to the customs form?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
