modelizer Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hi everyone! Ordered my first rep from Warcheden which unfortunately is held in customs at the moment. Need advice from you experienced Swedish rep bying members (preferably by PM) as I don't think the Watcheden suggestion of getting it released will do the trick (rather get me in trouble). Any help would be much appreciated! /modelizer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slask111 Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 I have had an Ebel stuck in Swedish customs and they wanted to know the value. Got a letter home saying contact customs, reps may be illegal yadiyada. My explanation was that a friend sent me a gift, dont know what it is but he told me it was worth around 50$ bla bla. I had to pay 12$ in VAT and it was released to me immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelizer Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Thanks for sharing your experience Slask! I might be going for that one. One question though, do you know if the customs already had opened the package and knew it was a watch (but didn't have a clue about the Ebel brand) when contacting you?

slask111 Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 The letter they sent me stated it was a watch. They didnt mention what brand though. Ebel is not the biggest brand out there so that might have helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitmic Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 I suggest my fellow Swedes NOT to post how-to-fool-customs on this board. Let's do it in PMs! Remember, when creating a fake receipt is a far worse crime than ordering a rep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelizer Posted May 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Point taken fitmic! Can some mod please edit my previous post and delete the solution text? Can't find a way to do it myself.. Thanks! /modelizer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
