Well, I just got back from the post office. Shipped the package, with an 
old fashion green CN22 customs declaration, with the info filled in by 
hand, in ink. The clerk, at the post office, had to enter all that info in 
the computer, which could have been avoided, had I been allowed to do it 
online, like I usually do, and have done, for the past couple of years. 
Also I don't need to fill in the "sender" info, since that gets 
"auto-filled", on my computer.

The agents, at the post office toll free number call center, gave me all 
kinds of fairy stories. The one they locked in on, is that countries, with 
big fraud issues, get removed from the online list. Then I asked, if it was 
safe to ship to Russia, and they answered "yes". Its all got the smell of 
"bovidae crappus".

I'm taking the risk, that they won't bother to steal a $30 item. Though , a 
cool one, in my opinion.
