Almost 3 weeks and no updates of any sort. My seller is still asking me to be patient. Let's try

Thank you! Were you able to view the pics right in this thread or did you have to click on an image and it rerouted you to a website where the gallery is?

I am able to see them via iPhone but not on a PC. PC shows blank.
I didn't have to click anything.

How about this?
I cannot see in both places. You need to copy the BB code not the URL.
I did copy the BBcode. When you go under BBcode, you have the options of BBcode Full, BBcode full linked, BBcode Medium linked, and BBcode thumbnail linked. Which one are you saying to copy? I can see the images I posted just fine on my computer and on my phone.

Not from the USA but same situation mine is a little conplex because customs only wanted to see an invoice that was like 2 weeks ago and since then nothing happened 
Almost got packages ordered a couple of months. After getting stuck from point of origin, finally theres some traces of movement on tracking per local post office. It was a rough few months growing all the anxiety and me, especially when watching the border security: americas fronline on Netflix. Seems the feds are more of tracking down traces of narcs on packages or anything related with agriculture. Watch every single episode and probably a little percentage goes for money counterfeits non for our beloved hobby.

I think we need to have a Issue with Customs thread (sticky) to help educate or alleviate the anxiety of some members who are unlucky.
I hate seeing comments from people who never have issue with customs and try to give advice. I know that some unlucky US members whose packages were seized received a letter CBP or Dept. Homeland Security, and they ignored the letter. I would really like to know what happen few months after. I also know; in some cases, that Rolex or other billion dollar businesses (Nike or LV) sends a cease and desist letter to the buyers and threaten the buyers with legal (monetary) consequences unless they reveal the seller. This customs issue can cause a major headache for many of us.
So whoever experienced customs issue whether it is in the US, UK, EU or wherever, please create a thread for it.

I agree, we should have a thread. But, I disagree where you mention about advice. If one has issues with customs, that does not automatically certify them as a person who should give advice on custom related issues. I’ve never had a true issue, but that does not stop me from giving valid suggestions to someone who is asking or in need of help.

There have been several threads and if memory serves some were rather lengthy. I remember reading about cases in the USA and EU alike. Ultimately if you are in either area and don't want to take the risk you can do M2M used or you can find a dealer already there who in essence has assumed the risk for you I suppose. Ultimately I think patience is key because I've had packages take 6+ weeks to arrive and whenever I see someone post "got it in 2 weeks" I wonder where/how. Never happened to me. Always takes eightever for me to get anything.
