It seems about 85% of the stickers make it through each time I send them. I don’t know if people are lying or some cat in the post office has the definitive Expat Knives sticker collection.
It's funny, I have probably received over 300 packages from the US over the past 10 or so years, in that time I have had 3 issues only, pretty good average given the distances and variables involved. One (a pair of boots) just never arrived (and in fairness I think it only 50/50 if they were sent based on the subsequent flame out by the seller on ebay) one that went from GA (addressed to my Australian not Austrian abode) and was returned to GA by CANADIAN post as "un-deliverable" and finally an envelope of documents that were posted in Oregon and arrived almost TWO years later (repackaged and addressed by no one knows who). Somethings have taken mysterious journys and inexplicable times but they do generally show up.
Our postal system up here is terrible. I shipped something a couple weeks ago, paid extra for 2 day delivery and it took them 3 days to process it let alone start shipping it! I guess I should have asked which 2 days haha
I'm giving these bad boys away to the poor relatives in the UK! If you want in then go find the post on the ESEE UK Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/1860822104182459/ *Expat approved and regulated, tested on animals and subject to a change in weather and Brexit*
Mine actually made it proving expat is in fact a man of his word and that a hand full of Canada post employees should be allowed to keep their jobs haha Thanks expat!
