Chicago Customs Seized/Confiscated

[rek0001]

OK, so, I'm a glutton for punishment I guess - I really want a Noob v5 Sub.

I live in Chicago, anyone have any advice for me as far as at least attempting to get this watch safely?

Thanks much.

Request delivery via Hong Kong Post.

I'm working with Ryan and will have it taken care of.
Thank you!

Just read over on a another site another member with a seized letter

These Customs agents are stockpiling some nice Reps for sporting around Chi-Town.

Now I'm reading some HK Post stories about it sometimes taking 2 -3 months to get the package, no tracking updates, so not sure if it's getting there or lost. Sounds not too promising but what can you do.

Mine took about 10 days to show up in USA via HK Post. It went left a domestic sorting facility on the 22nd- and no updates since. Registered mail is the bottom of the bin for USPS apparently. Quite unlike the next day before noon EMS

Let me know if you get any tips. I want one too. Also from the chi.

how long did it take for anyone to get a letter from customs? Mine from Canada has been "processed through sort facility at ISC Chicago" on the 20th and nothing since then. It was an M2m on 2 watches sent regular snail mail

I received my letter exactly two weeks after it entered U.S. Customs in Chicago.

I had two packages sized In Chicago . The first had 6 watches , the second one had 5 watches . Then just about a few days before CNY I only had one watch and that one cleared Chicago in 4 days.

I've read several instances where multiple watch shipments have been seized. Might want to try one at a time.

Should we do a dummy service for people in Chicago? I'm in California, maybe a po box here would be good?

Good idea and sentiment!

However, my understanding is that it's a shot in the dark here. Meaning that a California bound package could first end up in Chi town, for some bizarre, inefficient reason.

Basically, triangle shipping could work, if it goes from Guang Zhou to somewhere else (outside the US), then to US.

This assumes that US Customs are hot to Guang Zhou in Chicago. I don't know for sure.

Also, this would probably be very expensive and maybe double the customs risk.

I think U.S. Customs agents in Chicago are on the lookout for EMS packages from Guangzhou, especially ones that fit the bill for standard size and packaging of replica watches.

Damn, someone bought a lot of watches!

Just an update:

My shipment from Intime showed NO activity after clearing the sorting center in China on FEB 3.

Both Ryan and I were ready to call it lost if no activity showed up by this coming Friday.

Whaddya know! Today is March 4, 29 days later and USPS shows it arriving in NYC sorting center!

I'm in a bit of a worse situation. My shipment is in the same status as yours, but since FEB 3rd!

I contacted some of my frid in China. They said the ems is super busy right now, and they are processing lot of pacakes right now. You even need someone inside to get your package shipped.
Crazy up there.
I would not worry if the items stuck in China.

I'm not worried about mine just trying to be patient I'm about a month into the wait lol. Go figure one of the few times I want a watch from a TD has to fall into CNY lol.
