Are you kidding me? India is no different to the problems mentioned in lot of asian countries. Japan doesn't have street names but only block numbers. Most of these countries didn't have planned cities (or grid system for roads). Bad monsoon/weather? What can you do? How is it different from delivering during snow blanket (in winters) in North America.

And for the record, Indian postal system is fine. I've delivered the stuff over $200 and it worked as expected. It's ridiculous when people try to pick holes in everything.

Have you been to Mumbai during the monsoons? It is a world away from snow blankets. The commission for drainage systems should have been enough to hold at least 6 hours of continuos (india style) rainfall - they sustain about 20 minutes in most area. Corruption? I say yes.

I've lived in India for a large part of my life, and I've received about 60% of the parcels that I have ordered.

Yes, I've lived there! And for the record I never had problem with Indian postal service!
