As far as the USPS there are no other countries imposing a similar ban on Airmail. Though security will be tighter than it was before the fan mail from Yemen arrived. (All ground and sea based shipments are unaffected.) ALSO if you are a registered Japanese commercial business making shipments to the US (on the international safe shippers list) this ban will not impact your shipments to the US. http://www.majiroxnews.com/2010/11/13/japan-post-to-stop-parcels-to-us/ http://www.post.japanpost.jp/whats_new/2010/1112_02_c01.pdf Rob Holcomb Meteorite storage and preservation http://www.rholcomb.com -------------------------------------------------- From: "drtanuki" <drtanuki at yahoo.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2010 1:47 PM To: "Marcin Cimala" <marcin at meteoryt.net>; <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> Subject: [meteorite-list] US shipping restrictions Was-Question for Europeandealers > List, The Japan post announced that due to recent events the US was now > only accepting parcels of UP TO 453grams for airmail.
