Ordered a video watch.

Took them a week to process the order, but I suppose that's not too bad.

The whole thing seems slightly sketchy, for a whole variety of reasons, but I'm hoping it'll be worthwhile.

I paid ~$70 for the watch, and $15 for shipping. Not bad, all told, for something like that.

Today's shipping notice says that, for customs purposes, they put a declared value of $16 USD because that's the local street value. Which means that, according to them, I paid over 4 times what it's actually worth.

So... yay for less taxes. Boo for more sketchiness. And boo for suddenly feeling chumpy.

Oh well. Still getting the spluftiest watch I've ever seen. Assuming it actually does what it says on the box, anyway. We shall see.
