You will receive a phone call if you have your phone number listed with your receiving address; if not, you will receive a slip, either from the post office or from customs office, depends whether you make customs declaration or not when you ship your box at originating post office. If you claim your value less than RMB100 ($16) on the declaration form, and attach the form on the box, your box won't be stuck in customs. So if you don't have a customs form on your box, you will most likely have to deal with customs office.
I will be in Kunming soon. I am wondering should I sign up with a VPN service while I am in the US, or should I wait till I get there? I am not a techie; if the question sounds stupid to you chic techies out there, I beg your pardon; and I really appreciate any of you who cares to answer my question!
@Alex, I did look into this agency, they seems good. But I heard they do charge hefty fees. I will try the DIY as much as I can. Thank you for the suggestion though.
