+GeoCharmer81 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I think it is absolutely outrageous that the Recipient should be made to pay fees, taxes or whatever term the post office/shippers/customs use--- On A Gift, no matter the value of the Gift. Taxes were paid when the gift was purchased, shipping was paid for. And, how many issues have we had with our Missions not even making it to the recipient? Some were returned to sender and sender was expected to Pay Again to resend!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment

If the receiver didn't pay any fees it would come back to me (eventually I am sure) and they wouldn't refund the shipping. 2 Quote Link to comment

The 'bad' thing about stating a value of 10 is that, if a package went missing and the sender had insurance on the package and proof, all package insurance would cover is that amount. Sadly, it makes me re-think hosting future Missions. 1 Quote Link to comment

+Jimrky Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Sent my info to Laval K-9: 3/ 7/2023 Name received from Laval K-9: 3/ 9/2023 Sent my gift: 3/13/2023 My gift arrived at destination: I received a gift: Continuing on my previous comment, some additional time to send might be nice: My package cost $58 to ship Priority Mail (so it will get there in time, hopefully). First Class would have been $40. CAUTION: USPS was required to read out a long statement that said that the recipient may be required by their country to pay an additional $21 OR MORE which cannot be paid by me in advance. More if the package is inspected and the country's Customs deem the value stated to be insufficient. The above are not "complaints", just a wish and statements of fact. It's getting expensive to send things between countries and we might want to start earlier to send by cheaper means - especially if we're paying Customs Fees on receipt as well. Or possibly just exchange within countries? That would be a lot of work for one Host for the Mission, though. (Might be worth some discussion at large.) 1 Quote Link to comment
