| Why not just go right to the top and sue Joe Biden lol. Always blaming America and Americans is a hot take that never loses currency on the internet. |

No different really than sending to a friend in the US to forward to you. The USPS is only responsible for getting the package from the seller to your friend. Just in this case, the friend is a business charging you for the forwarding.
It gets really messy with foreign taxes and duties. As I think you are finding out.

Whenever someone offers to save you money, or offers a workaround from an established channel to make something, faster, cheaper, or easier, there is a catch. There is something that is lost in the details, whether you recognize it or not. In this case it looks like its eBay buyer protection and USPS claims. Things may never go wrong with a third party provider, but when they do you probably approved it in some service agreement. Good things to consider before you let third party entities store or ship your property. |
