The only time I have
had trouble from overseas to the US is from
Bulgaria. As far as I can tell, these were never sent with customs forms, etc. I have often wondered if I was just getting ripped off or if it really was the mail as the issue on their or my end. In ay case, I will never order from anyone in
Bulgaria again as I never got satisfaction from the seller and he, in fact, accused me of lying about not getting them. Live and learn. While I got some, I am overall down in those transactions. My coins from the main
auction houses in Europe have never been an issue. And the values of such coins I have ordered have always been pretty low. Certainly under the threshold mentioned here.
