Default Re: Am I missing something here? USPS Forwarding Service

reading the listing again it seems that

-you pay to have your item shipped from the seller to their holding location in the US
-you pay them the $21 fee to ship the item from their US holding location to their EU holding location
-you pay to have your item shipped from their EU holding location to you.

This, I'm sure will end up being about twice as expensive as having the item shipped directly. Their "service" is that you now have a US address where items can be shipped for sellers who refuse to ship internationally.

I've used services like this to get items from Yahoo Auctions Japan (such as Rinkya.com) crazy expensive but it gives you access to items you normally wouldn't have access to.

I do agree that it seems to be a fairly small/unprofessional outfit.
