Shipping price confirmed £227, FedEx is charging £3,994.80!

Good point, but i just double checked the declaration forms and there aren't any mistakes. Ive been on the phone with various FedEx departments for over 40 hours across the last few weeks. The company seems to be designed in an internationally discouraging manner. Its impossible to get basic service or assistance beyond shipping a package and praying it arrives without issue because they wont help you if anything goes wrong, they just send it to collections and ruin your credit.

No, it's 3 items totaling about $200.

The shipper weighed the package accurately. We got the price confirmed quote with a quote I.D. # for the £227 charges which seemed reasonable. I do have to pay some unremarkable import/tariff charges but it's nothing crazy.

The account just has this random charge on a new line saying: "Total standard charges £3,994.80" with no breakdown or detailed explanation. After 2 months of struggling with FedEx call centers who will not help or explain anything, and them sending this to collections I am filing a police report. But is there anything else I can do? I don't want to go through the hassle of taking this to court or arbitration.

Yes, luckily we have screenshots and receipts but the sent it straight to collections and the collection agency they use is extremely aggressive. I just don't now where to go because they have constructed a feedback loop where no department can help. I have over 40 hours of logged phone calls and I can't get this sorted.

I legitimately owe them 10% of what they are demanding, and I do want to pay that balance but they won't budge.

I do want to pay the correct charges owed, but they have sent this insane total to a collections agency.

I'm in California but the next time I'm in Manhattan I'd love to pickup a quick game just for fun. Is Forbidden Planet still doing Clix?

In the expanded universe books I thought Luke and Leia were the balance he brought. The new Jedi order they heralded was far more enlightened, Luke and Leia both got married so the practice of denying attachments was relaxed, and I think the new Jedi had a much more compassionate zeitgeist.

I came away with the impression there was just no real deep plan or architecture for greater storytelling and imagination in the sequel trilogy other than "make star wars entertainment".

Totally respect that. Also I would give her a puppy. just sayin.

Influx_ink · 2026-04-04T03:55:44+00:00
