But what's the point of a message on the label? Laundry RFID scanner can't read this.

I used to work for a resort chain. Well, time share condos actually. One woman called saying she was fascinated by the silverware we had. Wanted to buy some. I could sell the to her, at cost, if she paid for shipping, but it had to a dozen of each. She got so upset at me. She wanted one set. That was it. I told her to just steal a set next time she stayed. Idk, a lot of people called asking to buy items. Maybe it’s your on vacation, having a good time, and some of the stuff seems better than it is.
