when i got to the checkout i think the name of the postage was international airmail, but what did they mean when they said "USPS Destination Post Office" *** is that? lol

does that mean the destination the package is heading for is my local post office/sorting office thing? or is it still delivered to my door?

and they also say "Make sure to check with your customs/post office first" and what do they mean by that?

i hope someone can read the quote and try to explain this for me, cheers

Hi

I think USPS means United States Postal Service.

It would seem to suggest that it will be shipped to your local sorting office, bit I'm assuming that the address you blanked is your home address. You would think if received by local sorting office they would just attempt delivery.

yea it was my personal details i just edited out, cant trust the net where-ever ya go nowdays lol

but yea thats what i need to know, maybe it will or nmaybe it wont go to my sorting office, hmm.

Depends - it may be help at the local post office/delivery centre sp they can get you in a better position to shaft you for the customs charge, before shooting their bolt with their ******** 'handling' charge. Post office and customers, two of my least favourite organisations if you hadn't guessed.
