As it happens I have never ordered from GoWesty --- but they do have a
couple of goodies I've been thinking about. I'd call and beg them to ship
USPS -- if they wouldn't I'd look at picking up the items somewhere, the
next time I'm in the US --- or I'd source the item elsewhere. In short, if
it's going to come by UPS I don't want it..........because my blood pressure
can't take the usurious brokerage charges.
