#Webstore:
・Sends order in 7(!) parcels.
・Makes shipping labels during the next day, all at different timestamps (hours between).

#DPD:
・Picks up all packages at once.
・Processes them not together from there on (hours between).
・Comes by with 1/7. And not the first processed package, nor the last, but a random one in the middle.
・Delivery guy: "they do this more often, you'll likely see me a few more times this week".

Wonder why delivery is so expensive nowadays...

Word of The Hour's Annual Survey @ https://wordofthehour.org/r/form

I did not know this, but it makes sense: When you send a parcel, put name and address of both sender and addressee both outside and *inside* the parcel. So say the Universal Postal Union regulations:

"The office of posting shall also advise the sender to put in the parcel a copy of his address and that of the addressee."
