Ordered from South Africa for the first time and the debit card payment triggered every fraud check the bank has.

Small, light and boring passes. Large, branded and interesting gets examined.

The address matters more than the contents after a while, and nobody warns you about that.

What is the thing you check first now?

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

“Dispatched” means the label was printed. That is the entire meaning of the word.

“Registered with” is doing an enormous amount of work in that sentence.

The sticker on the box is just so you know they were in there. It is the letter that matters.

What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it?

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first? A year in on USPS and it lines up.
