Shipping via the US Postal Service is not something that many of us 
would choose to do, especially with something as delicate and valuable 
as a ham transceiver.  That's a big part of why UPS and Fed Ex exist.

In my case, the major reason I don't want to sell internationally is the 
matter of customs and duties, with the associated paperwork.  Here it's 
mostly ignorance of what is needed, what the procedures are, etc.  I 
might look at it differently with a ham I knew as the buyer.  Nothing 
parochial beyond ignorance. :)
