I might be doing a swap with someone in Poland and I live in America. It would be my first international swap and second overall. How much would the shipping cost, and also any general advice would be welcomed.
Thanks
Quote: "gyoschak"I recommend tracked mail from Poland to the US--from what I have read now, Poland's postal service appears quite dubious.Quite often Americans thinks that post in Eastern Europe is dubious. But my experience shows that always when there was any kind of problems, they happened in USA (it can be seen well by tracking). Last time my letter was found in USA after my complaint - 2 months after I sent it from here. It left my country in the same day, but got struck in USA for 2 months. Good that all ended well.
Quote: "JRo69"My advice is to make sure the postal clerk gets the country code correct. My first international shipment was supposed to go to Israel, but the clerk marked Ireland on the shipping label. So instead of 1-2 weeks, it took more than 1 month for the coins to arrive.Good advice - thank you
I just completed a swap with a member in the Netherlands that took 1 week.
