    If it's their post office, United States Postal Service, it'll be our Post Office I think.

    I think it varies on the service selected their end, I have had things come via royal mail, but this morning some records arrived from America via Parcel Force which were shipped standard USPS air mail.

    yes it's parcelfarce.

    if you get the USPS tracking number, quite often you can track it into the uk, and get the parcelfarce number and track it on their website. well, that was my experience last year with a guitar I had shipped from the US.

    In my experience Customs can hold on to things from the USA for weeks
