How do they do it????????????

I have bought and sold speakers from Canada and both times there was damage done to the speakers. The boxes both times were in perfect shape with no visable damage. The speakers I shipped to Canada was double boxed at UPS'S demand to cover insurance. Does Customs go into the boxes and remove the speakers looking for drugs or a nuke bomb? The tape both times looks the some as when shipped. Does Customs or UPS have different tapes so when they destroy something they can match the tape to the original tape?
Any thoughts?

Yes this happens all the time in the US also. The box was dropped flush on one side. The impact was even on one full side which jars or shocks the contents inside without damaging the box. Has happen to me on both deliveries and shipments. No sign of box damage but the amps, speakers - whatever damaged.

If dropped a good distance the inside component really gets a quick jolt.
