When I took my first trip to RSA (in 2003), the biggest hassle was the porters at the Jo'burg airport, that physically jerk your luggage out of your hands to make sure you have to tip them.
Things must have really gone downhill, if you have to pay someone to "meet and greet" you at the airport to ensure your firearms can get through customs.
Makes you wonder if a hunting safari to Africa is still an enjoyable experience.
