A GO will happen when a senior member has some requirement and he decides to let other people hop in to order alongwith him, you may not be to able to start a GO if you dont know any senior member in TE. Preferred mode of shipping is Priority Mail International i think, but Funky wud be able to tell you better which service they use, but yes their tracking facility is good.
No. You are not right.

Anyone can start a GO- whether and how many people hop on to it is a different case altogether.
Just that the more senior/known or reputed a member is- the easier it is for people to rely upon that member with their money as it is pre pay.
A member who is backed bya senior/reputed members reference is also more assuring.
To start a GO- a person has to have the will, time and resources to Order the stuff, handle payment and shipping and pay customs charges and get it cleared from the resp authorities, if any apllicable.
Also to ship to each and every individual on the GO.
And mostly GOs are supposed to be no profit coz it's a good offer extended to others who can benefit from the same and be mutually beneficial too- but terms and conditions may depend on mutual consent between the members.
(This latter part makes the point of a GO debatable.)
About the technicality of the order- those who have ordered from international sites will answer it best.
Terms and ways change from site to site.:cool2:
