Rolecs Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) Hi all, I've order some watch to silix. I was waiting for my order to come (you know what I mean) But it seems that the watch was seized by the custom (F....k) When I track the package http://www.track-trace.com/post/track The last status is "Handed over to Customs" What can I do? - Wait and see how the customs will told me (surely that some couterfeit material arrived for my name) Must I say that I'm not waiting for any material of any kind. Or that these watch are a present of my dear old friend... - How the seller usualy react to that (do they try to send another package?) If Anyone can indicate me how to handle that, it'll be precious Edited February 27, 2008 by Rolecs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 It likely simply means that it is going through Customs so I would not panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoria Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 It likely simply means that it is going through Customs so I would not panic. I thought Rolecs was in the USA, and I was going to reply, this is entirely normal. But he's in the Kingdom of Belgium. It is still normal, Rolecs, that your package goes through Customs. Doesn't mean NECESSARILY that they will open it. When you see "Seized By Customs", then start to worry. But perhaps a Belgium-centric RWGer might comment further. Good luck!

Rolecs Posted February 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 so I'll try not to... But i thought that "handed over" means "seized" And I imagine if they just see the content (even quicly throught xray) it's done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capice Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 maybe better to delet the tracking nr m8, just in case.....no worries about your watch, I'm sure it will be with you in a few days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailinjack Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Don't worry M8. I have ordered many and get that all the time. Sometimes it sits like that(your comments) until I get the watch. The system isn't perfect on updates. But it's better than none at all.

Rolecs Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 (edited) Hi, I was contacted by the customs to tell the content of the package (I said mecanisme under 65$ from private to private people) But they open the package and an expert from rolex will decide if it's genuine products or not. But I don't know if they can sue me on that... Please help... Edited March 25, 2008 by Rolecs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 By calling them and telling them that it was a private transaction with a certain value there is no way back anymore. Infact you told them that you were going to import that watch. If you are lucky you can give up the watch which will destroyed and you will get a warning. I don't think the are going to prosecude you for one simple replica but you'll never know. Carpe Diem Cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing is to deny that you have bought this......just refuse it otherwise you can face jailtime or at least a fine....... Read this, in Dutch, sorry Nep-Rolexen kosten Alloo in beroep veroordeling Televisiemaker Luc Alloo is door het Gentse hof van beroep veroordeeld voor de aan- en verkoop van namaakhorloges in zijn programma Alloo Undercover. Alloo werd in eerste aanleg vrijgesproken, maar moet nu 495,79 euro boete betalen als mededader van inbreuken op handelsmerken en auteursrechten. Horlogemaker Rolex diende klacht in nadat Alloo voor de camera een aantal valse uurwerken kocht van Johan F., die beweerde dat hij ze op het Antwerpse Falconplein had aangeschaft. F. werd maandag gestraft met een boete van 1.239 euro, dezelfde straf als in eerste aanleg in 2003. De verdediging van beide beklaagden had de vrijspraak gevraagd en in het geval van Alloo ging ook het openbaar ministerie daarmee akkoord. De openbare aanklager meende dat de reportage voor een groot deel opgezet spel was, en de televisiemaker niet de bedoeling een misdrijf te plegen. De rechters oordeelden daar echter anders over. Luc Alloo werd beschouwd als mededader en zou Johan F. aangezet hebben om het misdrijf te plegenLuc Alloo weigerde gisteren commentaar alvorens hij het arrest kon inkijken. It says a undercoverreporter was fined for buying counterfit watches(while he was filming buying a watch l) The seller had to pay 1239 euro, the buyer 459 euro, sued by Rolex In fact you have admitted already you bought something, so I think this will not have a happy end bro...... Good luck, let us know what is happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceberg1459 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I must say your chances are low..same thing happened to i look in tracking website it said "waiting customs clearance..". It was a rolex sub from josh. And 1-2 days later i received a letter from so called rolex lawyer with my misspellt name on it. There was confirmation letter i had to sign and fax to them that i allow them to destroy the watch or they would take legal action(including the possiblty of sending me to jail, lol) .I signed,faxed and case closed, i lost the watch and no refund from josh aswell. Thats why from now on i buy only within eu. But i must admit its so funny how rolex tried to scare me, they cant do anything because its not illegal to own replicas for own use in my country..
