I'm from Italy and I've always received most of the books I've got coming from the US. The problem here is that since we have custums on books coming from countries outside the E.U there are delays on some books and others are sent back. I don't think we can define a country a black hole. Sometimes books get lost. I'm lucky to say only a few of my books have been lost. In one year and a half of bookcrossing I've mailed and received several books in the US and in Europe.
