Given what I have experienced with Singpost and some of their third party forwarders, I am not surprised.

Would it be better if we pay extra for EMS?

royal mail uses a forwarder global media pte ltd or something and yes, they sucks big time."maxxevv"
It depends on how the parcel is routed.
I and a few friends were ordering stuff from a few different sites based in the UK. All used the UK Royal Mail, apparently, they had their own courier counterpart in SG.
And strange as it was, me and 2 other friends lost parcels all in the space of 2 months. And we all feedback to the sellers.
It got so bad that after about 6 months, one of the sites decided to stop shipping to SG!
We suspect that there are thieves within the post service counterpart in SG for Royal Mail and reported likewise to them as they seem to be very specific about the type items which they were after.
Its possible in this case too.

Not sure what happened here but that sucks. EMS is slightly safer. Own experience has been ok so far and thank goodness. But singpost side is also not good. The regular postman is a good guy but really quite poor thing, One day when I happen to be collecting mail, he was still working at 7 plus almost 8pm. And he had 30 parcels of various sizes with him (on a scooter!) I asked him how come firstly work so late and so many parcels how to squeeze. its dangerous and he said no choice, sometimes there are too many parcels and cannot finish and try to deliver as much as possible.
Speedpost on the other hand is a pain. Unreliable, and like a bro before pointed out, don't show up and happy then show up or deliver or don't deliver and you have to go down and collect yourself. Best part is the CS is worst. Frankly, EMS is a good service, unfortunately have to use outside contractors sometimes and they just throw the packages all around. Seen it happen in front of my eye before and best part is bo chap.
But then again, people will compare to our neighbouring countries and tell you that its better here so mai KPKB. If everyday eat lobster, lobster is no more special. And anything "lesser" in taste/value means less tio bo? Pray that your parcels come and that postman/delivery guy don't cock up. Otherwise, bo pian, want to be safe, buy locally and tio chop, sliced, ker-toh and pui chu lai. :(

I need to ask one question, also regarding postage but the other way round.
When we send a watch to Hong Kong and state the cost of the watch as US$350, will the recipient be taxed?

Hong Kong is tax free as far as I know.
