Postage, mainly.
Thirteen letters where one would have done
The South African Revenue Service (the equivalent of the Inland Revenue or the IRS) actually has a pretty good reputation over here. They rarely get stuff wrong, they get things done quickly, quietly, efficiently. And then they give all the money (all R627,692.8 million of it) to the highly respected Trevor Manuel and he spends it wisely.
This find in the PO Box wasn’t quite so impressive though. Is this what you mean by Stamp Duty, Trevor?

hmm..are they not doing it all online yet? and were the 13 letters repeated or different information?
If postage is taxed then does it mean they make money by sending more?

Alex > 5 different letters. Plenty of repeated information!
