Man I don't know what to believe anymore, then. I put in a request for HLJ to send my packages to my US postbox thing and I'll drive it across myself. The $3 fee at the mailbox is guaranteed, but I definitely feel it'll hurt less in the long run. It's maybe a 20 minute detour from work so it won't hurt too bad, plus I'll grab cheap american gas on the way
