I have heard it takes about two weeks for a package to arrive and we are only to use USPS.
If I send something of value, should I buy insurance, even though it is out of the postal system's hands once it leaves this country?
Also, if the post office marks it as fragile and there is insurance on it....are they more likely to take better care of it? (I've heard that some sailors get their boxes in pretty abused shape.)
Is there anyway I can send a package with speedier delivery so that I can send home baked goods?
Are there any items I am banned from shipping to a sailor on board a ship? (besides, obviously, alcohol.)
Thanks in advance...I am having a difficult time locating people that have the answers to these questions...and I would REALLY like to get this holiday package in the mail.
