Hi, guys!
In my more than 330 swap history, first time sh... happens with post of India. My swap partner received letter with empty content, some package papers inside without coins. NOT MY style of packaging papers. Can You imagine this bastards doing this?
Any other such a "nice" experience?
And the most important thing- can somebody of my swap partners describe to this partner PKSAHA, how am I packaging coins, because in his eyes I am the evil one...
Every single coin on the world should meet its collector!

​This was and is a common occurrence with the Kyrgyzstan Post. That's why I have to use the more expensive carriers such as FedEx, DHL or UPS ...

I am the receipient of the empty envelope. For me too, it was shocking and first experience.
The sender used a small paper envelope, which perhaps due to weight disproportionate to size, attracted the thief.
Generally, as a policy, one needs to use a strong and slightly bigger envelope so that density is not noticeable. After all, the size does not result in extra postal tariff.
it was registered?

And then was not there a difference in weight between what you sent and what he receive?
Weight was not done when receiving since it was not informed.
It's so weird that such things still happen. Registered letters are even risky (they get more attention).
They're expensive and offer no delivery garanties. Afteral a registered letter only proves that you sent it, never proves the content.

Anyway, I did swap 3 times before with Indian collectors and everything went well (fingers crossed). Nowadays I have another swap running with an Indian collector and I hope that everything goes well to.
I got his coins already (the Netherlands it's a tiny country and the post delivery is quick) but mine are still on the way.

Swapping coins or banknotes are always a risk, but never a reason to stop doing it.
Cents are money too!
ok for a small swap 2-5 coins you cant know if the coins was stolen but when you sent 100-200 g of coins and the letter arrive with 20-50 g you dont pick up because the coins from the letter is stolen
