Yes, there are no numbers. When the post office is the size of a McDonald’s bathroom, there is much more intimacy between post officer workers and mailees.

Also I am required to submit all mail to the customs officer, who will open the package and go through its contents in front of me. Please do not send any expensive electronics (I had a friend pay $400 in customs for a $200 tablet).

The following is taken from a list of guidelines on UPS:

NO Coins; banknotes; currency notes (paper money); securities of any kind, payable to bearer; traveler’s checks; platinum, gold, and silver (manufactured or not); precious stones; jewelry; and other valuable articles.
Fatty, liquid, or easily liquefiable substances.
Lottery tickets and circulars.
Perishable fruits and plants.
Perishable infectious biological substances.
Radioactive materials.
Sweetmeats and pastries.

Please don’t mail illegal or tasteless items either. That’s just not fun to open together with a customs official. Trying to be a good example of Americans here.
