I do not know what all of the hassle is as I Export and Import all of 
the time.
I use USPS, UPS and airlines and ocean and if some poor soul insists I 
use FEDEX only at their request. I ship most by airfreight my door to 
airport and or dock and let the consignee arrange to clear customs and 
get it street side. Example recent quote was $357. to Rome airport FEDEX 
to the door was close to $600.00. I recently imported over 200 radios in 
6 crates by ocean all charges to my door $4,000.00 no  duty no hassle.
For small packages Up to 4 pounds USPS is very simple. State radio 
parts, $10.00 gift signature, both addys. Airmail to AU Friday was 
$1.86. Over pounds another simple form to max weight to country no 
hassle no SSN number.
Go to www.USPS.com and international Rates tell you all you need to know.
So what is your feeble excuse now?
