If you wanna sell to Mexico, just avoid like hell Sepomex "Correos de México".
That means not using USPS as they forward their package to Sepomex, as Chiron have discovered.

You should rather use some private transporter. Like Estafeta, Senda, or some US companies working here like UPS or DHL.
I use them a lot as I have suppliers all over the country, and I haven't had any problems yet. Land shipping usually takes 48H-72H, by plane 24H.

Depending on the products you are selling, if may be worthwhile selling abroad. Look at www.bhphotovideo.com, by being the only respectable site selling readers abroad, they have gained a lot of customers.
