Nick2T Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Give it some time mate, I had a watch in customs (belgium) for about 1,5 month! When I decided to give the hope up, it showed up at my door! So a couple a days at the customs doesn't mean it will turn out bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

specialvat Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 My fav is when it comes up 'package lost' on the status screen, my stars those are fun times. Relax all will be well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Padge Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Strange, my "AWAITING CUSTOMS CHARGING" message has changed to "Awaiting Customs clearance", not a new message, the same date and time information as before......... Never seen that before, been in customs four days, the message changed today, hurry up already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Strange, my "AWAITING CUSTOMS CHARGING" message has changed to "Awaiting Customs clearance", not a new message, the same date and time information as before......... Never seen that before, been in customs four days, the message changed today, hurry up already! I had exactly the same thing a few weeks ago no problem though Had another strange change for another one of mine today... First thing it said 'Out to depot' this evening that was replaced with 2 lines ' Recieved and processed' then in a seperate line 'Forwarded for UK processing' I think they are changing their usual phrases for new ones I guess !!!

Mickey Padge Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 That was my first thought too, maybe they want to reduce incoming calls, so they changed the "drama" of their one liners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lufcmattylad Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 I've been at "Handed over to Customs" for now the 4th day... I could do with it on my wrist today cant wait for "Awaiting Customs clearance" Checking twice an hour now... remember the 'ants in my pants' thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Watch arrived today It arrived at international hub 24/10, cleared custom on 26/10 The info never went past 'Forwarded for UK processing' so I guess that the new phrase for on route to depot and out for delivery!!

Mickey Padge Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Yes, all the wording has changed! Mine now says: 28-10-2010 11:19 International Hub Forwarded for UK processing 24-10-2010 18:54 International Hub Awaiting Customs clearance 24-10-2010 18:53 International Hub Received in destination country 20-10-2010 23:53 Delivery Agent - GUANGZHOU - PTT Forwarded for export 20-10-2010 13:06 Delivery Agent - CHINA Collected from customer I think it makes more sense now, my delivery should be here tomorrow!

caba166 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Give it some time mate, I had a watch in customs (belgium) for about 1,5 month! When I decided to give the hope up, it showed up at my door! So a couple a days at the customs doesn't mean it will turn out bad Hi My name is charles and i live in belgium too. On the 08th june i ve ordered a watch to a trusted dealer (Trusty Time) So a few days later i had recieved my tracking number. The watch was handed over to customs twice for a week, than they aparently attempted to delivered, than again handed over to customs and finaly realeased from the customs. but sinds the 26th of june no watch... Ive already called the parcel to see where my item is but they told me that the watch still to the customs. (they didn't say that my item was seized) My question is to knwon if when you are ordering a watch, did you have the same weird things on your tracking status?? In Advance, Many thanks to you 2012-06-11 19:01:00 City of Guangzhou Posting 2012-06-11 19:54:00 City of Guangzhou Despatch from Sorting Center 2012-06-11 20:58:00 GUANGZHOU Arrival at Sorting Center 2012-06-11 23:34:00 GUANGZHOU Despatch from Sorting Center 2012-06-17 16:47:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Arrival at Sorting Center 2012-06-17 16:47:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Handed over to Customs 2012-06-18 13:07:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Handed over to Customs 2012-06-26 07:14:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Attempted delivery 2012-06-26 07:14:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Handed over to Customs 2012-06-26 07:14:00 KINGDOM OF BELGIUM BRUSSELS EMC Released from Customs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woof* Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Welcome to the forum Charles! You know the thread is 2 years old? Yes, waiting sucks, it's best to just order and forget about it. There's no rhyme or reason to when they come. I don't even bother to stress myself by looking up tracking numbers anymore, unless it's been over three weeks. What you see in tracking can be 100% opposite of reality. The info there is usually worthless. I recommend you be easy on yourself and stop looking at it. Either it will show up..or it wont. This rep game is a waiting game, it takes patience in this hobby. Usually they do show up eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
