couriers stop and everybody discovers their buffer was optimistic
Mid-December is when the shipping channel becomes the busiest place here, and it did. Tracking numbers stopped updating, depots backed up, and several members discovered they had four days of supply and a three-week transit. The advice was the same as it is every December, offered without smugness because most of the people giving it had made the same mistake.

What happened
- Members were advised to count their remaining supply in weeks rather than vials, which produced several quiet realisations.
- Tracking going dark at a port for eight days was described as normal in December rather than as evidence of a seizure.
- GGPeps and Hubei Jianxiang both posted holiday cut-off dates, and the channel logged which suppliers had bothered.
- A member who received a seizure letter was told plainly that the parcel is gone and that this is almost always the whole of the consequence.
- customs_owl started keeping the December transit figures separately, because averaging them into the annual table makes the annual table useless.
