Shopping the world




A parcel arrived from Amazon.com for Edward this morning, containing something he'd ordered last week.







Unable to find what he wanted on the amazon.co.uk site, he placed his order through amazon.com.

The box arrived this morning, about 12 x 9 x 3". Inside the box was a similarly sized piece of card, shrinkwrapped in plastic. Sure enough, the bill is there, addressed "Lexington Kentucky", but oddly, the packet is postmarked "Deutsche Post".

There, in the middle of the card was his purchase - a single CD in a cardboard sleeve...








...with a "Made in Holland" sticker on it.
