You can pick them up at the post office. I usually like to pick up a few extra for later.Someone already mentioned marking things as gifts. I'd also like to add that I usually don't list the contents of the box with brand names(My Little Pony, Barbie). I prefer to use "toy horse" or "doll". I have heard of some countries specifically going after packages with brand names. I think Germany had a problem with that. Their customs was trying to stop bootleg items, and anything that was marked My Little Pony got opened. I don't know if that's still true, but it's been my experience that generic is best when filling out customs forms. Be honest, but you don't need to go into great detail about things. It also makes things sound less expensive if you're trying to keep the customs fees to a minimum. "Stuffed animal", "toy horse", "toys", etc. are fine. Also be careful if you're going to send food(candy, gum, etc). Some countries will take the box if they find out there's food in there. I've had it happen to me. It was back during the foot/mouth scare, and US customs was after all food products. Again, I'm not sure if that's still the case, but it's worth checking out. Before you send any food items, check to make sure it's ok to do so.
