Hi I'm moving soon from Hanoi to Kunming. I plan to cycle so I need to send some stuff through the postal service.
After 4 years around and about in Asia and experience of numerous missing packages I am quite worried about my stuff going missing.
The main issue is my climbing gear, rope; harness; quickdraws; shoes; etc. I could deal with it if some clothes or my old rucksack never make it, but if my gear goes missing I am stuffed.
honest opinions on the safety of sending stuff like this would be greatly appreciated.

Curiosity, imagination, and confidence will suffice otherwise.
