How reliable are the post offices in Lesotho and Botswana? Are they affected by SAPO issues in regards of international mail? Speed and theft are the main issues I would need to know.

As SAPO is out of question for known reasons I am contemplating to find a mail aggregator/customs agent in one of these countries to have mail sent there and then distributed by a courier service to my location near Johannesburg. International courier is just to expensive and obviously not necessary as international mail works perfectly well only the SAPO is unusable (in Gauteng for international mail at least).

But sent to Lesotho to an aggregator and cleared to customs by the same seems economically and from the timeframe favorable provided the aggregator is not too expensive. This would call for some volume which I alone won't bring in so I ask if there would be interest in such a concept.

Or does this already exist and I just do not know?

Ah yes, so many replies......

I now contacted Botswana Post Office and Lesotho Post to inquire about PO boxes for non-residents. And some customs clearing agents in both countries about technical issues like bonded storage and such.
Still convinced this is a good idea I am (as Yoda would say).
