Highlights from this day
- triumph_watch — split shipments arriving weeks apart is normal and is usually a stock thing, not a customs thing, still working it out 19:44
- triumph_watch — for the archive i had a parcel marked returned that arrived eleven days later. it happens 19:59
- point_two_five — a liquid cold pack tells you it was above freezing, not that the vial cooked. lyophilised powder is robust, thats one data point 20:14
- gall_bladder_gav — got a seizure letter, what actually happens next vat is usually charged on declared value plus shipping, and the handling fee is often more than the vat 20:33

do you use the same address every time

i declare it as what it is at a low value. we do not discuss wording beyond that here
tracking has been dark for 5 days, at what point do i worry
handling fee is the killer
