The responses to this article make me want to put a forehead shaped mark on my monitor.

I thought that was easy enough to grasp. I see I was wrong.

This list isn’t on outside of package, is it?

This is for over seas packages. The list must appear on the CUSTOMS form.

Not for interstate us pckgs.

Some aces however do place an itemized list on the box so you can learn theco conents before you open it.

Yeah. Of course part of it is the article. It’s totally stilted. “Look at these evil USPS rules”. Which is why I went and looked it up.

I remember this being a requirement on overseas packages in the fifties, for customs tax

Yep. It still is. That’s why we never mailed water or Arizona iced-tea bottles with booze in them to ourselves over in Iraq while we were home on R&R. We never had our friends do that, either. {cough!}

Exactly. The anonymity of a package keeps it safe(er).

When one of my younger relatives was studying abroad, I sent clothing, but put candies deep in the pockets, as a surprise. Oh, well.

Tyranny has no limits...
You are not required to enjoy your chains...
You are required to keep your mouth shut and get that list completed...
Or else...

Why do I think this is more about the EU not liking competition...

Yes they did I guess I’m a convincing liar but I just kept waiting for the FBI or somebody to come and get me. 😀

USPS has screwed with my last package delivery.

Note to small biz: If there’s something of yours I need or want to buy and USPS is your only shipper, and you won’t use UPS or FedEx even though I’m willing to pay through the nose for your time and inconvenience, I won’t buy from you.
