EU Customs query

Haven't heard a word from customs since I sent in the receipt on Friday morning.

TN says it's still at customs, too.

Now I'm scared. I feel like I am waiting for them to come knock on my door and arrest me ? 

I keep trying to tell myself that it can't be that serious of a crime, and that they're so tolerant on drugs here, that maybe I'll just get a slap on the wrist - a fine, maybe? But I have no idea ?

I'm holding off on making any other orders with other vendors for now. I need to see how this plays out.

Will keep updating as much as I can.

 
Im in the same boat at present, there seems to be a big crackdown ive heard there have been a number of seizures, im guessing this is due to terrorist related activity but regardless the situation isnt good.  Over the years ive made a number of orders and ive had some orders go half round the eu before successfully landing but this its different.  

 
I might be wrong, but around this time of year it seems there are more seizures than normal, like a specific co-op annual customs operation.

Hi

I red the whole thread and I live west of you.

Your country does not have an international hub for importing from Thai lalala so it was in another international airport (hub) before
like Frankfurt, London, Paris, Amsterdam or Madrid. Thats the place where they scan what comes out of the freight planes
and sort it out for further transportation if coming from high risk countries.

In the UK you receive Love Letters, in the Netherlands a small blue envelope with a customs declaration paper, in Germany
the court next to the Airport sends you something <interesting>. Paris or Madrid works similar and just destroys everything
which is declared as a gift and looks like pills. Good vendors are never declaring something as a gift, there's plenty of
shit in this world worth 5 dollar or less.

In your case its a thing of declaration. If your Seller/vendor/Shipper is too lazy to fill it out, then it can cause problems.
A signed declaration is the key.

@PTFC buying meds from out of the EC is a real big no-no-no-go right now.

What i like to say: DON'T pick anything up a mailman is not able to deliver. Period. Life is too short for bad wine.

We're slightly different in the UK with not strictly being in the EU customs union, and I have limited knowledge of continental customs procedures except Germany. But at the end of the day, ordering these products is always a risk wherever you are. Very good  advice though! Any further info @Zicky?

Well, I finally heard back Friday & it's not such good news.

they've sent it to the "state institute for drug control (SDIC) to launch the so-called 'proceedings in case of doubt.' The customs office and the release of the product will await the decision of the SDIC."

I should have just let it go. The best I can hope for now is seize & destroy without any further prosecution ?

when I declared it as purchased goods, I said they were medicines for my dog (was going to make up some story about him having cancer & needing surgery - my dog is old /? I'm evil aren't i?)

Thanks for the update @Zicky, sorry the news is not great, but I dearly hope it is just a "slap on the wrist".

 
Got a letter from them today. It said that their "decision" was that permitting these items into the country is not legal/not allowed. But it also says that I have until 19 March to contest/appeal this decision and, if I do nothing until then, they will return the item to sender "at sender's expense."

Could this possibly mean that I just dodged the bullet & this is just a harmless old love letter!? If so, and no further action is taken, I will be SO relieved! But I don't know when or if I will ever order from non-EU vendors again... This has been a super stressful couple of weeks for me.

Does anyone know if the item is safely returned to sender if he will offer me a refund? Or will he only offer to reship?

If he will only reship, do you think sending it through a remailer is a better idea? That way, if it gets spotted in customs, they won't have any real access to me. You can open a remailer account with no other info than your email address....

It's not a bad idea, I am sure there is a return address on the package too. Obviously contact vendor with seizure details etc. 

 
I hope he believes me because translating all those Czech documents would be a pain in the ass

  9. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  10. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  11. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  12. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  13. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches
  14. crimp @ crimp: need some help dude im so injured its not even funny dm me for details just need someone willing to help me fust for a week
  15. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  16. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  17. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  18. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  19. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  20. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also
