Hey Kandice? I've got this third cousin, twice removed in
Nigeria.......and
she'd love to have some encased florals.....about 100 12 inch strands of
them.
Think I could get an estimate for her? She'll want to know before she
goes off
to use her credit card elsewhere. grin


Still won't ship to Nigeria, though.

I agree - it's relatively cheap to mail beads to the UK and other
countries.
The only problem is that people who buy international sometimes have to
pay
a duty tax ...I ship international. Except to
Nigeria. LOL

They don't know what they're missing!

I don't mind paying customs on items, it's part of the cost of doing
business really, and in eight years over here I've only had two parcels
assessed for duties.

I won't lie on a customs form. If the customer doesn't like that, they

go somewhere else.

Absolutely. If you run a business then it has to be businesslike.

We just fill out the green/white customs form each time, makes life simpler,
do them all alike.

I go inside to the counter. They have always told me if I need a customs
form or not. I'm so confused.

That's not true. My packages are way less than 6 oz most of the time,
and
they always require the customs form.

because of the weight of a
package. I know for China it is 6 oz before you have to do the
customs
forms. I have always shipped worldwide.


I've seen so many eBay auctions for beads that only post to the US.
It's
a
shame as there are people who would buy from various places such as
the
UK
where shipping is as simple as getting a standard-rate envelope from
the
USPS. It's a flat rate for these envelopes, they're sturdy, easy to
use,
no
worries about calculating for beads as the weight isn't a factor.
Customs
declarations can be downloaded and printed so that all you have to
do
is
buy
the envelope and voila! Someone somewhere else in the world is a
happy
camper.

Anyone who only ships to the US is really missing out and so are the
people
who would buy from them.

I bet they are assuming it's not sold merchandise... if you were just
sending a small package to a friend, you would not need to do the
customs form.

]If you ship internationally from the US, you usually need to go to the
post
]office, because they require a customs form. But those are easy to fill
out.
]I am lucky - my post office is 3 minutes away, and I live in a small
town,
]so there is never any line. Plus, they know me, so I never have a hard
time
]with anything.

seconded. an advantage to living in a small town. the only time my
hometown PO is busy is from noon - 1:00.
