Originally posted by BIGPOUTZA IF SOMEONE IS GOING TO SEND YOU GEAR FROM OVERSEAS IS IT TRUE THAT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE BECAUSE, IF THEY USE A COURIER THEY OPEN THE PACKAGE THERE BEFORE SENDING IT HERE , TO THE US, OR EVEN THE LOCAL POST OFFICE IN EUROPE OPENS THE PACKAGE BEFORE THEY SEND IT OUT TO THE RECIPIENT. SOMEONE TRIED TO SEND ME A BOTTLE OF WINE FROM EUROPE AND THE POST OFFICE OPENED THE PACKAGE IN FRONT OF MY FRIEND AND TOOK THE BOTTLE OF WINE OUT AND TOLD HIM THAT HE CANT SEND THAT TO ME, NOW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN WITH GEAR??????????? ANY PAST EXPERIENCE WITH THIS KIND OF PROBLEM WITH ANYBODY ELSE???????????????? If he had no connection he will can not send anything inluding wine. They will check even books in some countries page after page. To send a package to international you must show the open package to the postal officer he will take and later will close and send. If something wrong they will seize the package.

I sent packages from many countries in europe to other countries. In most countries I gave to the post package open. If there is custom officer there at that moment he will check content and will seal and stamp aproved for sending. If is not there you leave package there and come next day and see if was a problem. Sometime when I sent gear and officer look inside he refused to send OR give back package. He told to come with authorization or prescritpion for that gear if I want package back Also wine, alchool and cigars are forbiden to send ! For anything else than documents (they will look at documents anyway to see if nothing hinding) you must show proof of payment for that product also etc...is lots of mess if you dont have any connections THIS IS FOR ALL EAST EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, TURKEY, YUGOSLAWIEN etc... I know what I am talking about

Varun If you come with proper papers that certify you posses that stuff legally and also show them receipts where you bought. Ussualy is better to leave the shit there because you can cause more problems

Originally posted by gotgear no that is not true, i get stuff from eu all the time... plz dont type in caps depends on the guy sending. must have proper connections

Originally posted by cyber_vky ..if someone opens ur package kick his ASS... YES ! This is proper handling for such a situation. Just kick the ass of the custom officer. No big deal

Originally posted by BIGPOUTZA what kind of shipper was used , post office, fed ex, ups, a normal courrier,,etc???????? just throught the regular mail, in a yellow envelope... of course the gear is not just put in there, u gotta disguise it by like putting it in a small container or something

I know what I am talking about Bro if its banned and one can pay the price put on it.Take it gives u a good paid citizen repotition. second.......when u write......SAMPLE NOT FOR SALE or GIFT ITEM FOR NON COMMERCIAL USE u dont have to pay anything to them and in the above case only thing u need when u are sending a gift a bill of puchase + airwaybill+ ur photo identity I am telling u cuz...........i am having converstaions with kentucky customs in USA.....they are real SOBs they hold my packages saying that they are "DRUG PIPES".......there is no arguing with them they are such big mother fuckers.... Varun

go domestic bro, there is way to much risk in going international, trust me, i found out the hard way. wait on a good domestic source.

thanks guys, this just fucking sucks, I dont know what to do, because my cousin can send me whatever I want, but he has to figure out how to do it without the package having to be inspected before it is send to me. why is it always this hard?????????
