You can even check usps.com for any ideas on how to ship things internationally, and their rates. I just have a lot of them (somewhat) memorized because I've been working shipping for about 3 years now.

Also~ I'm actually a she.
The only extra "paperwork" is the customs form right? Is it advisable to always use your countries primary shipping carrier? In the case of US it would be United States Postal Service for ex. Australia? Australian Post. UK? Royal Air mail, etc...that's how I understand it. Is this correct assumption? I wish someone could show me physically how to fill out a customs form just so I know. Only 2 points are most important though: gift and value (less than 25) right? I think it's the same here in Eastern USA for USPS as it is in UK and Australia.

Sorry AJ for calling you a "he". I forgot you were a she. Should've known since I chatted w/ you in your "infamous" show off thread. :B
