Anybody have a bad experience shipping a knife to Africa?
I just shipped a custom back to the maker and it has "disappeared"!
I sent it USPS because no other carrier would ship to the address. Now I find myself out the knife and $350.00. It has been VERY disappointing to say the least!
The USPS is trying to track the package for me but says it will take awhile. Whoopie
A good dealer friend of mine told me "after" I shipped the knife as we were talking casually, "don't ship expensive cutlery to Africa, you'll lose it in customs". I was concerned and now find those concerns were well founded!
It is TERRIBLE!
