MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian Post has started delivering 4.5 tonnes of
letters and
parcels that were sent from the United States in 1999.
The state-owned postal service said the delay was not its fault -- a shipping
container with the mail inside had languished at a port in Finland for years.
The container finally reached Russia on December 8.
"The loss of mail usually happens because of force majeure circumstances,
such as
natural disasters, traffic and other accidents," Russian Post told Reuters
via
e-mail.
"All of the mail has been very well preserved because the container was
hermetically
sealed."

Hmmmm?  Maybe that's why I've have low return rates from Russia.
