·There was a time a few years ago when USPS was a better choice than FEDEX or UPS (unless using parcel pro) USPS is currently a complete disaster. They are severely under funded and staffed.

·Under staffed, you're joking. They employ over 600,000 on a business that is constantly declining. Manpower is NOT the issue with the post office. Their problem is their business model doesn't suit 21st century reality.
With any luck, they can progress to a better level of effectiveness.

·Hey Paul, this just came in a short while ago. Bought from creationwatches during their Black Friday sale, asked them to ship it to me sans box using their Free Shipping option (basically NOT UPS/FEDEX); no issues with customs
My Solas Starlight is delayed, that one is coming in from Ireland so I'll pop in a message here once that arrives.

·Ok, update: Solas used DHL, and I received an email to pay customs charges (and their brokerage service fees) even before the watch left Ireland.
