> In Australia [..] it is not a great experience I am certain that almost all the issues you experienced are due to the chain from the plane to your house - mainly customs, who are the laziest, most incompetent stereotypical govt employee jobsworths you can imagine. I've had tiny camera lenses sitting at Sydney Airport for a week. You call their contact numbers and no-one answers. Clearance times are slow to begin with and spike wildly. They make AusPost look like hyperefficient geniuses. Probably the same for the other countries. In the US, SG and (local store) Japan it's been stellar.
