If you send to abroad as registered air-mail you will not disappointed as seller shipping costs is almost same to anywhere overseas. So I not see any inconvenience to send to abroad. You should know you able to get better price or faster sale if not exclude outside world of USA.
To "sell only to home country" not welcome on an international forum like this this is an unfriendly step against 80% of members. Please think again!

Customs is really terribly easy to deal with.
If you log on to the USPS website everything is there and you can even print it all out from home and pay the postage right from the website.
Most transactions I have made as a seller have been international in the last two years.
The USPS has made it very simple to ship international and has also been very dependable in getting items into the hands of foreign agencies quickly.

Example: time from USPS in Seattle to German foreign customs (tracked on the website) usually 2-3 days.

Any hold-ups always come from the receiving country.

EU countries pay a high VAT for US imported items. It is best to discus this with a buyer.
You may end up shipping for a lower insured value to aid in the VAT burden.
