A few days ago I visited my local US postal office..... I was there to mail a tube with the Acaeum art sending to Italy...
Filled out the international paperwork and checked it all; paid the bill and the lady took the tube placing the international paperwork on it and I watched as she placed in the bin.

I got it delivered to me today on my doorstep.......
Monday morning I will have to do it all over again.....

One of the reasons I don't like UPS is the just dump packages and leave. They were great about refunds but people wanted their stuff not their money back and it was a rep killer.

UPS don't tent to act like that on foreign soil (to the best of my knowledge), but then Parcelforce who carry USPS packages in the UK tend to be pretty good about not dumping packages either.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Visited the post office this morning to ask them to send the package to Italy...
They decided not to charge me again, after I explained why I wanted to mail it again.
