Happened to me at HEL the last week. After I entered HEL, I tried to locate the stamp but it was so hard to find it even though the stamp was very clear and not over other stamps. I carefully checked all the pages, and finally found after 10 min or so.
When I was leaving HEL, the office could not find the entry stamp and asked me when it was. However, he was still struggling to find it and I roughly remembered where the stamp was. He finally found it and happily stamped. It's not only me, but I cannot explain why the particular stamp was not easily found!
