Oh yes, I've had this problem when ordering from Asian retailers.
On the other hand, when I was in Tokyo, I was delighted that I could find clothing that wasn't tailored for people 5-8 inches taller than me, even thought I was otherwise considered size huge XD (And recently, when G was looking at ordering something from a Hong Kong retailer, I had to strongly caution him to check the measurements on everything, because they probably weren't made for 6 foot caucasian men, even lean ones.)
