Hi Everyone, mine has some shipping problem

[mka_t_s]

I checked the tracking and it says, detained by customs. any advise?

Not much you can do , until customs , makes their decision . May not let it go through at all . Or you could get hit , with a fine .

Wont it be the same thing, if i come back i still have to go through the customs formalities..

You might want to discreetly ask around , and see what sort of things , happen in these types of situations . If it is a minor or major type offense . Then maybe you can decide , what steps to take .

Gosh I'm sorry to hear that. Ugh. Hope it gets released without further issues. Good luck.

 

[mka_t_s]

Definetly it wont be released, now i guess i have to wait for the authorities to contact me for the next step.

If it's illegal it will definitely not get released, I've seen a couple of chinese shops saying they will mark their packages as "Gifts" so they clear customs easier but I haven't tried them (and tbh I hope it's not that easy to fool customs). Let us know how this proceeds, I'm quite interested to see if there's a fine or something.

Someone here could probably answer your question better.

 

[juljul]

well customs people are really tight. I ordered a Silverbullet and not really sure on what to expect when it arrives here

 

[juljul]

pretty sure I need to bring extra dough for the taxes

 

[juljul]

goodluck man

How far are you from the International Post Office. I ordered Sony Readers from the US and customs sent me a text message saying that I could wait for them to determine the duty and taxes (and then another message, then shipping... maybe 3 days)...

Instead, I just dropped by the Terminal D of Incheon Airport, walked around until I found the Int'l Post Office... and stood in line with all the EMS and FedEx guys to pick up my package. Five hours on subway, bus, walking, waiting, filling out forms... way better than waiting a few days for the usual method.

If your item might be rejected for import, then showing your face to government officials might not be a waste of time. They're still human and might release it to you just for all the trouble you went through?

you might get snagged with a fine.
