Posting to Shipping Agents - Question

Looking to see what members think about sending an RX7 part to a shipping agent?
Not from the US but, have been asked to send an RX7 part to:

Address: Larparken, 3775 NW 77th St, Miami, FL 33147, USA Trinindad and Tobago?

How does this work? What are the downfalls? Do they sign for deliveries or does the item
just get forwarded on? Are they like a PO Box? Mailed them a week ago and received no reply?

Not worth the hassle IMHO. If its a part of nominal value, perhaps it should be worth it. Otherwise, I would suggest to stay away.

I have done that shipping an M2 CF intake from US to Australia, I know when the forwarder got the package via tracking, but nothing after. I assume everything is fine as I never heard back from the buyer, and that was 6 months ago.

I've been a part of the an agent type service. The buyer arranged the agent. My responsibility as a seller was only that I would ship the item to the agent in good shape. After that, not my responsibility.
