Friends, are any of you having to go to the post office to collect mail from overseas?
One of my aunts in Taiwan sent me a letter. Not registered, not containing anything customs-worthy -- just a single sheet of lined paper -- and not only did I have to go to the post office, wondering what the heck was up (the notice from the delivery person said only "Other"), I also had to show my ID and enter my address into the credit card reader and sign for it.
This is not normal.
