foucalt Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Make that a triple intro, I'm also new here and from Sweden. Unfortunately our currency has taken a beating against the euro and dollar which has made watches about 25% more expensive over night...

jazz4ivo Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Welcoma aboard Andreas . The more scandinavians the merrier. You have reached The place for reps Hey is it true that 1 out of 2 replicas sent to Sweden get confiscated by customs? I so want to buy one but would not want to risk it if that is the case... Can anyone shed some light on the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Sweden you have to pay VAT (moms in swedish) on anything bought from outside Europe. It depends on the package. If it comes in a box then it's pretty high risk that they'll open it. But if it's just one watch in a little bubble wrap in a normal envelope it should pass.. Many years ago you could write on the package that it was a gift, then they wouldn't add tax. But nowadays they don't fall for that any more.. Anyway that's my experience and I've bought alot from all over the world (mostly USA) for 10+ years..

hogan1 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Hey is it true that 1 out of 2 replicas sent to Sweden get confiscated by customs? I so want to buy one but would not want to risk it if that is the case... Can anyone shed some light on the issue? I tried to investigate this a couple of months ago. You can read about my findings in the below link (scroll down almost to the bottom). http://www.rwg.cc/members/Legality-Replica...0&start=100 Also - there are sellers who offer a service to deliver via another EU country (e.g. the UK). That's how I got my watches. Eurotimez and Precious Time are two: www.eurotimez.com and www.ptswiss.com. No customs risk at all. I recently had one watch arrive directly from Thailand though - padded envelope and bubble wrapped inside. Not checked by customs. This was an exception to my own rule - but the watch wasn't one of the expensive ones - so I went for it anyway. But - buy from the ones that offer delivery via another EU country - alternatively check which sellers offer refund/replacement if confiscated by customs and you sleep better at night.
