Just got back from the Post Office.
Boy, Registered Mail is a hoot.
Domestic packages must be each placed in a special brown cardboard envelope.
Each package is sealed three ways with special brown tape that must be hand-wetted with a sponge. The tape is stamped around its edges to prove that it hasn't been removed or replaced.
Each package gets a unique Registered number.
Each one is hand-logged into an ancient looking ledger book.
After being verified by another clerk in the back, all registered packages for the day are put into a special bag with an irreversible, serial-numbered metal zip tie and a padlock. The package remains under lock and key until is is delivered to you.
All this for between $12 and $19 extra per package (depending on where it's going and what the declared value is).

Almost sounds like a ritual...
