My first experience with the Global Shipping Program was a good one. This gunong:
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=gunong was shipped by this service, I have received it after one and a half week without problems direct at my door, so I haven't had any problems with local customs (you will know why

) and I wasn't angry about the high shipping cost. But by all other statements given here and the other thread Lee have posted I have to agree, I prefer to wait a little bit longer and pay much less tax at my local customs.
