Sept 25: Our goods are announced

Corruption and dishonesty is not exclusive to India, apparently. Today, we have been called by the Indian agent of our US shipper and told to pay the remaining 20% owed to them. Didnt the contract say we pay on delivery? Apparently that is irrelevant.

After a lot of haggling, we agreed to pay about 60% of the amount due. My concern is: if we pay the full amount, what guarantee is there that the goods will arrive at all?
