Europe's New Customs Rules: Gifts Now Need Patience, Not Money
Starting August 29, European postal agencies have decided that shipping some goods is now akin to assembling IKEA furniture blindfolded. Due to new customs regulations, 'many European postal agencies and companies say until new systems are set up they can't ship some goods.' But fear not, your presents under $100 will still breeze through. So, next time you send a cheeky 'gift,' remember it's not about the value but the bureaucracy marathon — apparently, rules turn postage into a test of patience.
