Dreaded Letter

I received the dreaded letter from Customs on Saturday and believe me, I have been living in suspense over the weekend. I am going to claim my packages today and I hate the feeling.

No, it is not because I want to avoid paying customs taxes; it is because there is no fixed tax rate that I wouldn't even know how much I will be taxed. Taxes are imposed according to the officer's whims and fancies. In a way, this is good because there will be a slight variable in costs, which could mean cheaper products for my buyers but only if the tax imposed was low!

Well, I have to go now to the Customs office and let them "slaughter"! I have no choice, do I? Wish me luck! Thank you!!
