Try shipping to China, or Russia, or Brazil, or ...... Forums like this one and markets like Ebay are global. But each country has it's own, special rules, and often corrupt postal deliver systems. The statistics of overseas shipping are that you have a very high likelyhood of a lost package. Often, there is no real insurance if that happens. Before "globalization" I'm sure each country enjoyed excellent postal service with no problems in country. Now....anyone who ships overseas will see occasional problems. Yet the foreign customers have NO tolerance for any problem, even if it's caused by their own country's system.
