Hi Judi, I too had my doubts about mailing to CZ. I had questioned Ron on this site and he told me he never had a problem, but to make sure they can open up the package..I mailed a sweatshirt and baseball cap. I put it in a large padded envelope,did not use the closure on the envelope,I taped it closed,and wrote on the back of the envelope to just slit the tape for inspection. The advise about the boat is true, my daughter ships to poland all the time, and uses a boat.The mail and packages were not getting to the family the mail way..Libby
