Package shipping from UK?

I purchase parts from the UK and Italy regularly and just use international post/USPS
It is less $$, just as reliable, provides tracking, and usually quick through customs. I have not had a problem in years ......

Copy what Orange said.
Have them ship it British Post (Royal Mail) which will come USPS. Cheap and reliable. Spent 14 years in England. -
That would be my story too & I'd stick to it - "My wife is buying a ballroom dress..."

Thanks. I was getting sticker shock. I'll look into that.
