      That’s pretty much every country. If you order multiple of one item , they will steal one or two and think to themselves you got plenty so you won’t miss this. they also try to over charge you in customs and take the extra. Nothing you can do but pay.

      @@KAM128 kinda wrong, it would be hard to steal alot in more developed countries with anti-corruption agencies and systems to stop over charging (basically theft). From my experience it's only underdeveloped countries where this happens on a regular basis. Cuz they have less resources to focus on that type of thing.

      @@benjamingavrilis71 you being ignorant by saying developed means stuff don’t get stolen. I live in the US and even here packages get stolen or ripped out of boxes and majority of people shipping bulk or even using skybox do not use major shipping companies like Fedex, Dhl or ups. They use private companies with a US address. those people will over charge you when collecting taxes and bill it to the up charge to their services provided.
