The guy here at work who handles the mail called me, said there was a package I had to sign for. Two possibilities of packages I'm still waiting for: my Secret Senna or my Blipshift shirt.
Well, in a way it was my Secret Senna. But the gift I SENT. It has returned under the excuse that there wasn't enough info to deliver the package. The label where the address was printed on had been torn off. Now I'll have to send it again. This time I'll write it on the package with a sharpie.
Our Mail system is ridiculous. The tracking of my Blipshift shirt (the Jalopnik Volvo Wagon one) says it arrived in Brazil for customs clearance in early December (it took about 5 days from shipping to arriving in Brazil). It spent over a freaking month in customs and only last week it was released to the local USPS office. I hope I get it this month at least.
About my Secret Senna, no clue yet. But considering the Blipshift shirt was sent in early december and it's still in transit, it might still be in customs.

I know all about that. I learned the hard way not to send gifts to my family in Brazil through the mail. Ridiculous customs times and, unfortuntately, rampant theft.

I usually hypertape package labels to evade any tearing.

Yeah... I thought framing it in tape would suffice. Most stuff I buy usually only comes framed in tape. I should've probably layered it over the paper too.
Then again, being the Brazilain mail company, I probably should layer it with bulletproof glass too:
