Yea, I avoid UPS like the plague, I make sure to point out in all caps with \*'s around it to ship USPS every time I buy something from the US. Like:

\*\*\*\*\*\* PLEASE SHIP USPS ONLY, NOT UPS\*\*\*\*\*\*

I’ve never had that problem. I’m pretty sure whether or not you get charged customs is up to the way the sender ships the package.

If the package is marked as a low value or a gift you will get charged little or no customs.

I know one time I was charged $11 when a package was sent through USPS on a cheap package and many other times I’ve not been charged anything on stuff even more expensive.

I know there’s more to determining how customs fees are calculated besides that but I don’t really know the exacts of it all.
