Oh dear! Still, if your dealer is one of the good guys they will resend if it's seized/stolen/passed around the night shift.

You did buy from a reputable dealer didn't you?

My last package spent almost 2 days in customs (San Francisco). Previous to that I had a package clear customs in 1 hr (Los Angeles).

If you are using the China EMS tracking website it takes forever to update it's customs status. Track using usps, which is updated almost in real time, once is gets in the US.

Yes, we all know from years of experience that "Handed over to US Customs" means the inevitable forceful knock on the door followed by "extensive cavity search".

Just remember to relax your buttcheeeks. :lol:

That's the other part I forgot about. So EMS packages are delivered in the US by USPS?

.........and I thought I was a bad man!

Good advice though....even a small tear in the tissue of the rectum can take a while to heal and even small blood stains in that area of the trousers can lead to nasty and untrue rumours.

Yes, everything I've had sent EMS has been delivered by USPS. In fact, the EMS tracking number should work for you now on the USPS website.

Seems like a regular message when package arrives through San Francisco. Never seen it through Kenedy. All my packages come through NY and this message never shows up. Once EMS screwd up and I had one package come through SF and was the first time I saw this.

Don't worry! Unless they're training someone they probably won't open it, though I heard SF is a popular training point.

The post office sent it to the wrong address. You should get it tomorrow for sure. It happened to me a few times. Nothing to worry about.

 

[pwrslider]

How the hell do you get your shipments to go thru San Francisco?? I live near by..and all of mine go thru Los Angeles!!!

Which is probably good....my packages never stay in Customs for any longer that 2-3 hrs.......

Guess anything...or anyone can get thru Los Angeles!!! :lol: :lol:

 

[bme]

Any news?

Any knocks on the door?

Strange late night phone calls?

....or even a watch delivered?

It's En route it should be in the mailbox when I get home today. It's a locked mailbox so I'm not too worried

 

[oldkid]

Don't you have to sign for the watch?

This doesn't mean seized, does it? It just means that Customs is checking it out. Right? It's been awhile since I've received an EMS shipment.

It simply means that the boys will x ray the package....if they are having a slow day they'll open it....if one of them fancies a new Cousteau or a Chopard (currently the favourites with customs) they'll take it out put it on and discard the packaging. If they are pissed off they'll send you a little note with a tax invoice. So, don't worry. :lol:

LMAO :lol: :lol:
