Don't take it personally. Just think of them as TSA agents for boxes.

Pkg was scanned into a container but didn't actually get loaded into that container.

Oops. Now it's actually in a container. Probably. Maybe.

Ah, you know - that actually makes sense.

Except, why did they ship it from China to Japan?  I don't live there.

Got to the Alaskan NSA inspection station and found not to have correct version of spy software imbedded.  So returned to manufacturer for correction

I ordered from Toshiba.  They ordered it from China.  Or Alaska.  Or Japan.

On international shipments (I do a ton with DHL), tracking can sometimes misleading as to the actual location of the shipment.  Clearances are often done remote from the package, so the locations shown may not be the same as the package itself.

Don't blame Alaska. We subsidize the Jet fuel for the freight carriers to the tune of 48 cents a gallon discount which is added to our vehicle fuel price.
