Who handles shipments from Japan, UPS or USPS?

I have a couple things comming to me from Japan and was wondering, will my games be delivered to me via UPS truck or in the mail box? Thanks!

They could be coming either way. Both the Post Office and UPS are global, as are Fed Ex. My guess is the person who shipped them probably used the easiest method and went to the local post office. Every time I've ordered anything from Japan (always from companies like CD Japan), it's shipped via Global Express Mail (GEM). Cool part about GEM (along with "normal" express mail) is that it only takes maybe 4-5 days to arrive AND they deliver on Sundays AND holidays (Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years included).

So if you're lucky, it was Global Express Mail. GEM has to be signed for though... so maybe it didn't go that route?

you think UPS would carry things for USPS overseas?

either way, the gov't checks it in at customs...

EMS

I used EMS shipping.

EMS = Express Mail/Global Express Mail...you'll get it with your regular mail from the post office.
