derik429 Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 I placed an order with Andrew and have been tracking. Today I received the "please contact DHL" I know this is not good, but I've never dealt with this before. Do I just ignore it? And the letter they will send? Any insight is helpful. No Idea how this ended up here lol mode please delete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derik429 Posted January 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 I placed an order with Andrew and have been tracking it. Today I received the "please contact dhl" update. From what I read it basically means it's gone. Besides contacting Andrew, do I contact DHL? Or do I just ignore everything including the letter that I will probably receive? Any advice is appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikki6 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 It might be that there is a small custom charge to pay? Did they say anything at all about why?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torobravo Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 We had 30 packages seized at the U.S. customs this month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torobravo Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 A plenty of packages got seized in the U.S. customs. They will reship your order after the chinese new year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Wasn't it about this time last year that US CUSTOMS in Chicago did the big clamp down on watches? Seems like it's cyclic, suppose it's about time for another "crackdown". Who clears DHL packages in the USA? At one time, I saw a lot of DSL, but I never see their trucks anymore. It seems like the last DHL package I got was either handed off to the USPS or FedEx for delivery. I know that FedEx and UPS both have their own in house customs clearing, but not sure about DHL?

torobravo Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, now everybody is on vacation until day 16, and there is a plenty of time to make a verdict if it's gone or delayed, than your vendor, depending on his policy will re ship or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacuadra Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 what was the item? brand? I had one that was clearly opened and checked but it proceeded to my destination. That occurred in New Jersey. Watch is an AP. I am going to check the rep bag forum to see if we have more seizures. Chicago, Houston have been bad sporadically. LV or Chanel are the usual troubles.

If they start to speak about counterfeit tell them you are not waiting for a counterfeit watch but for an homage you bought on AliExpress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacuadra Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I second this. One item except for the usual high profile ( Chantel/Bulg/Rollies ) should be no trouble. Buyer clubs are a difficult. I have received and paid bills from Fedex for Gen items ship directly to me from Italy/France. Small change usually.
