As anyone who reads my posts might have guessed, I buy stuff on eBay, straight from China.
Last year, with the start of the zombie apocalypse (or an extra strong flu? Forget which it was), shipping from China became both more expensiva and slower.
But nothing too worrisome, an extra 0.2-1€, depending on what it was and maybe a couple more weeks waiting. Not too bad when the usual shipment took two weeks to a month and half to arrive.
But now that the zombie apocalypse is slowing down and people aren’t being eaten alive in the streets, things are becoming weird.
For example I have a handful of packets on the way, two of them have arrived in less than three weeks, which is great.
The others…



I think my parcels are squatting on the sorting center.
The poor China Post guys keep telling them to “Leave sorting center”, but they don’t.
My parcels are clearly communist squatters of the worst kind.
No respect for anyone, not even the Chinese Post, which clearly is controlled by the CCP, that clearly is communist because it says it right in the name, which in turn is controlled by…the people, it says it right in PRC.
Fucking squatting parcels…
Yeah, I literally had nothing better to post.
Edit 17/03: An even funnier one
You ever heard the expression “slow boat to China”?

“Oh shit, man, that’s hilarious!”
“The fuck does it mean?”

Since Lisbon hasn’t moved much in the last 265 years, I’ll deduce it’s the parcel that got to Lisbon.
One full month after the supposed departure, by air, from China.
Ladies and gents…we now have the slow plane from China.
The shit we can see when we look at parcel tracking is mind boggling.
