has anyone has a package intercepted by customs and held/investigated. i am waiting for a package from japan that was sent on the 6th Feb 2006. one of the two packages sent on that day have arrived but the other one has not yet turned up. im hoping that customs have got it rather than it being lost/nicked but wonder what the process is if they look into it rather than letting it through.

any ideas anyone.

hi,
ordered the US version of kingdom hearts 2 from vgp.ca. Value of the item ?33.05 with the ?3.00 shipping option. I never stated in the comment box that they should mark it down, but I heard they do it anyway. Is that correct? And has anyone here paid import duties after ordering from vgp? Any info appreciated.

Im thinking of buying a US slim PS2 from videogameplus. Just wondering what the chances are of a customs charge and what is the best shipping option to avoid a charge.

Thanks

If you ask VGP they'l normally mark it down, I've had a couple off them in the past with no fee's.

I've pm'd anyway because i've got a sealed US slimline (Latest model) that I bought for a friend who's decided since he doesn't want it.

Does anyone know if Parcel force still collect the customs charges at your door?

I've ordered stuff from them that cost more than that, and have never had customs. I know people who ordered PSP's and didn't get customs either. VGP are great in that area.

No delivery service now does afaik, pretty much for two reasons I expect:

1) Person collecting money doesn't pocket it themselves
2) Person collecting money doesn't get mugged for the money

maybe about ?12

hopefully nothing pal, got a parcel from the states via global priority from the States and the seller had put the correct value on the front of $80 and i got away with it

if its been send from inside the EU you wont pay anything

Cheers mate

It's being sent from the US, the only place I import anything from.

You never know with customs, hopefully they won't charge me a penny extra... I suppose ?12 extra won't kill me.
