DHL Customs

[chronos666]

Phone call from customs, they are checking the copyright of product, I guess they opened it because they knew it was a watch, was from Josh at PC. Will he try again to mail another?

I think the DHL Cincinatti hub is a problem, have bought many watches from Connie, no problems ever, this one I do not think I will see.

I am not sure what you are asking. It was my purchase, I am out the watch and the $$.

[ninjagaiden]

i've had one opened by royal mail. No consequence , you just say you were thinking you were buying gen - this is what Royal Mail / LMVH said when they contacted me. Josh sent another watch with a different courier. Recently the item description has been filled in as a timer..

Josh always takes care of it.

Glad to hear it. Will let RWG know the outcome.

That's so stupid that they have a right to open and check if items are gen.   What a waist of time and resources.

DHL email updated me. Not sure why PC would put Watch as description for delivery. I'm pretty sure this one is gone.

 

Notification for shipment event group "Clearance delay" for 16 Sep 16.

I received my noob v7 hulk yesterday from Josh. Next one I'm buying off here if anyone has one (Patek Philip nautilus)

[chronos666]

Thinking maybe my luck has run out ordering dropshipped watches. I ordered 2 from Andrew, since customs has seized my Josh order, I asked him not to use DHL, gave him a different address, he used DHL anyway, asked several times for tracking, yet to provide me with tracking ,order paid for a week ago on 9/11

Not sure what is going on, in 2010 I ordered seven watches from TD's got them all to me from qc pics to receipt within a week.

Watches received, running & looking great, delay was due to Mid-Autumn festival.

If you are in the Usa PM me im gonna clear my watch box and ive got two RG nautilus, it will be a lot easier if you are in the states!

Sad..

Never got ONE issue with DHL express from US to Europe.

I declare 80 USD for everything, always have a 30 E tax to pay but never got caught, ever, even if though Cincinnati. 

Sure way to import expensive things, laptop etc. But be ready to pay some taxes automatically..

 

[chronos666]

Think it was just bad luck. Received the seizure letter and Josh is going to ship a replacement. 

[irolexu]

It's happened to me! They sent a nasty letter but that's about it.. no worries

[chronos666]

Received the nasty letter, Josh sent replacement out as soon as I showed him the letter, received today (not through DHL), worth the wait, great piece.

[irolexu]

Glad it was resolved!
