They're great because they can legally sign for you, so for int'l orders requiring sig, you don't have to try and calculate when it'll arrive during the day so you can be home. They have a free call-in service so you can call to see if you have mail and packages and where they are from. Also, MBE provides a street address for those OPs that won't ship to PO boxes. It's only 10-12 bucks a month, so it might be worth it to ya. Also, so many people get packages, both domestic and international, that they probably wouldn't even blink at someone receiving a pkg from Europe or Thailand or Philippines....
