When I took my suitcase - everything was fine with it, the lock is on its place. Already at home, I open my suitcase, and get presents, but the boxes were empty! yes, the souverirs were stolen! They took souvenirs and left boxes from them! and it turns out that thieves at the airport know how to open a suitcase without damaging the lock!
Huh? What did you do different than packing a suitcase?
