When I was at Intel we sent our designs for microprocessors to European
branches and/or partners. One set of designs sent to MATRA/Harris, a partner in the 80C86, was stolen in transit. (The box of tapes arrived in Paris, but the tapes had been replaced by the suitable weight of bricks.)
There exists a website by someone who enjoyed sending unusual things through the US mail. He once sent a brick, with proper postage, no envelope. The brick *eventually* arrived at its destination, sort of, but had been broken by the DEA according to the PO's paperwork.
