im paranoid of the word "confiscated"!! huuuu :(

Yeah hence now I don't order in big quantity anymore. Used to order 500ml at a time to split with friends. From my experience, no notifications for liquids. For mods, if it's DHL, ups, etc they will pay it first and charge u at ur door. For post, ems and the likes that's delivered by the postman they will send you a note to claim and pay. A friend recently got his mod detained and paid 20% tax. 20% is not too bad, except it was the custom that determine the total value of the package...

Determine the packaging meaning they will charge according to ur grand total of purchase? I order some pv's and they sent by DHL, custom charge tax as electronic stuff and tax me abt 50% amount that i declared because there is batteries inside. How to explain this im puzzled. Mt baker i ordered less than 500ml and now lost track coz mt baker use usps.DAMM...the last time i ordered from TV JUST 4 BOTTLES 30ml took 1 month. So just patiencely wait.:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

No i meant they charged 20% (case-by-case) tax of total value, except total value was determined by the custom. My friend's package was declared as USD100 but the custom determine the package to be worth USD500 (so you do the math).
USPS is not the problem and most american vendors would only ship USPS.

If it's "USPS First Class" and you got an LCxxxxxxxxxUS tracking number then it might still be on the way cause that can take up to a month (sometimes more) to arrive and it has no tracking.

If it's "USPS International Priority" That usually takes more or less 14 - 20 days (sometimes less if it's offpeak season) and you'd have about 5 - 7 days of no tracking while its transiting from source to destination. Once it goes to this phase, switch your tracking to Poslaju instead and wait for arrival. After it arrive USPS tracking may or may not work anymore til you get the package (most of the time it wont)

For "USPS International Express", it usually takes 7 - 10 days, you'd have a blank of 2 - 5 days between transit and as usual switch to poslaju from this point on.

In all cases, start your tracking from USPS then switch to Poslaju after the package leaves the states. From what i gather, since you said it's been over a month, unless it's USPS First Class (which i doubt is the case), i'm 99% sure you're screwed.

PS: Again, never buy batteries overseas. They are considered dangerous item in many countries. I know (dont remember which, i think it was Royal mail) some courier outright wont let you ship batteries in their package.

ok i checked mine is (USPS (First Class Mail International Parcels). hopefully it never screwed.:glare:
but at poslaju also no record???

Poslaju usually do not track first class as they do not have a tracking number LCxxxxxxxxxUS is a custom clearance code (or whatever it's called), not to be confused with tracking. If you use that number in Usps tracking it will show you minimal tracking in the us. Also ur package will most likely not require a signature and will be dumped in your postbox =) but although first class sometimes takes up to a month, it usually will arrive in 3 weeks

tested AiV new cupcake city(sample). after few vape, taste start to get rich, well they are not to the sweet side but it does tasted like cupcake. Nice i would say. Will review after testing others. Don't no know their liquids need to steep. Will find out from the forum.

Yes AiV needs to be steeped =)

Also it helps to have different ways of tracking cause they have different ways of updating their tracking, some are more updated than others. For example im looking at three different tracking software right now, tracking the same number. One software says it's outbound (from US), another says it's on the way to Kepong/Damansara (the main post office near me) and guess what Poslaju says Inbound arrival =) I just feel it's wrong when a third party software can retrieve a more updated data from the poslaju server than a poslaju tracking tool can =)
