Tom,

UPS also has an online setup like FedEx where you can print labels, etc. Of
the international packages I received, they were either FedEx, or were done
"manually", i.e. money in the box, stand in line for postage. I never
actually figured it out, but I think in the end I probably wound up putting
some of my own money in to cover all the postage. My biggest concern was
seeing it happen, and making sure everyone could participate, so I wasn't
too worried about it.

I think the best thing you can do is strongly recommend FedEx, and people
who use anything else will be subject to having their package delayed until
you get a free afternoon when you feel like standing in line. If I had it to
do over again I would have sent the return packages in order of how easy it
was for me to deal with them. That way the people who follow the directions
the best get their packages first, and the more difficult ones are
"penalized". I definitely think it's worth asking people to do as much of
the work for you as they can.

Let me just check one more thing with you (and Shilesh)... Other than
fedex (or other non-postal), how can a sender (other than USA) send a
shipping label and postage (so I can just drop these off at a post
office or shipping point)?

It sounds like this won't be possible... I'm trying to avoid trips to
the post office lines at all costs.

I found that opening a fedex account was simple, free and charges to
your credit card... And you print the label on their website and get
a 10% discount and then drop the package in any drop box (no wait).
