Re: Sending a package to Cambodia
We tried to get a PO box a while back and were smilingly told 'not available, try again later' - anyone know if there's a waiting list system at the GPO?

Re: Sending a package to Cambodia
I just received two box's from American (to me in Snooky.) They were 15"x15"x20". Sent Priority Mail International with tracking all the way. They took about 10 days US to Cambo/Snooky. Put "personal affects" and they breaze through customs. A bit expensive but it gets here and doesn't disappear. The local PO used to put my box's in the back room and say not here until I started taking a print out of the tracking site with me. I now have them trained and when I walk through the door they are usually saying "Sir! Sir! Box here." BTW/ One box's had a computer in it. Once the box gets to the airport in PP from the US the next day at 2pm its in the PO in Snooky. Well worth the money.

You know that USPS is the United States Postal Service, right? They don't have offices here. Your parcel is probably with EMS.

Re: Sending a package to Cambodia
I was told the same several years ago and one came up a few weeks later. I have kept mine ever since, although i never used it, I still didn't trust the post, it was more for correspondence sake.. I just pay the annual fee, and intend to use it for aliexpress small items.StroppyChops wrote: ↑Thu Jun 05, 2014 3:15 pm We tried to get a PO box a while back and were smilingly told 'not available, try again later' - anyone know if there's a waiting list system at the GPO?
On a side note, I have sent documents from UK using DHL. It took 10 days to get to Cambodia, but they delivered as soon as they got it, to my house 11km out of PP
Always make sure your tel number is on anything sent to you

Re: Sending a package to Cambodia
Yes, on new items over $50 they charge 60%. But it seems this only applies to large packages. $150 hard drive, no problem. $112 steam cleaner (declared as $60) and they whacked me with $38 in tax/duty. I could have probably bought it at Aeon cheaper in the end.
