I know you are just like me in that anything that saves time is a huge plus! Often online sellers find themselves having to go to the post office to mail international packages. This is how we do it.
I order the two different customs forms and have them in stock here. We package the item up, fill out the form and leave it with the other packages to go out that the USPS picks up at our front door. In the upper right corner we mark it “FCI” (First Class International) so they know how much postage to apply.
The post office doesn’t know we can print Priority and Express labels from the Paypal site~
Then, each month, I give the Postmaster a check for $200.00 “on account”. They then deduct the postage for the international packages and send me the receipt with my new balance on the bottom. Voila! No more trips to the Post Office!
I hope this helps!
