Not so bad. I had a container of Superformance cars I paid for arrive in Newark. Customs cleared them before they land as usually happens. Container gets into the port storage. Container is marked as "unloaded" despite it not being so. Container is now loaded on a ship as "empty" and sent to Singapore. Realization of FUBAR happens and now container goes to Asia, gets offloaded, reloaded and finally returned to West Coast. My fault, no, but I must pay container "demiurge" fees and other costs! When they have you buy the stones, you are theirs!
