    Of course, that also means you find a buddy who'll get you half-off.

    Shay, you're clearly a shady son of Abraham so I assume you've had run-ins with Customs. I've had a parcel sitting in Customs since March 13. Do you think there a backlog due to the virus or do you think someone made off with it?

    Seems that there is no official way to check up on it as far as I can tell.

    PS it wasn't drugs.

    PPS Ok it was.

    PPPS I mean allegedly it was.

    Being honest Idol, i am not sure?? And really i have never purchase or brought anything in that i couldn't track, be it from the source or delivery service...

    And really when it came to certain things i went to the border or the airport customs to pick things up....

    Anything you purchased, if it was from a company, they can track it, because they have all the documents to send things across borders, usually they do??

    Now if it was a friend and it was a suspicious parcel well.....

    Just reverse this video and yes this is done....


    True story Idol... I am not sure if i did tell you this one or not??

    I brought in this security product, it was like a mace for protection, but it knocked you out it you got skin contact, so some of the ingredients i had to get pass for Canadian use, and with the help of the manufacture, both of us had all the documents ready for customs, so when i went to pick up the shipment. I was still at customs for a few hours and a ton of questions were asked, reason... It was original made to protect you against pets, because of the side effects it may have caused to human use, and there was a animal and a person on the packaging. Anyways i got it through, and again i had all of the documentation to do that....

    It is like in Florida there is a restaurant that sends there pies and seafood across the globe, and as long as the paperwork is kosher you never have a problem getting it stuck at customs...

    Attachment 184249

    Attachment 184250

    Again if you are serious and fucking around with me then you go to the source and find out what is going on they will be contacted or have the means to deal with it.. I hope and assume that is how you set up the purchase.....

    If we are on the same page, getting half off still doesn't affect the quality of the merchandise

    They can track it to the point of it entering customs then apparently no one not the sender, not even Canada Post is given any info on it's status until it's back in the postal system again. If it's seized but no criminal charges are brought then they don't even tell you that and you're left just guessing that's probably what happened.
    Makes me think if I was a customs agent I'd be stealing the fuck out of stuff with that kind of non-accountability.

    Believe me Idol, when there is something confiscated, it goes through many people, and many signatures and to other departments to investigate, especially if there is many parcels coming from that location...But i do think you are right they don't have to tell you anything but the seller can get the information if they request it for sure, especially if it s a legit sale and legal!!, what happens if this happened to the seller multiple times?? I don't think they are in business to keep shipping things and don't get to there destinations buddy, let alone want to take a loss...

    I am not concerned what you ordered, but if you are in contact with the seller and they have charged you and didn't say it is your responsibility to get it over the border?? I would be reversing that payment (call bank or credit card company or if it was Amazon, PayPal etc) and find some other seller to get what you want..

    Again if the seller had warnings about shipping to certain countries well that is on you buddy, and i will say sorry in advance....

    Funny i learned when it comes to some computer companies (Laptop), you can not purchase parts on your own, they want you to send it to a authorized repair depot.. So i ordered a part from France and you have to watch the wording as well, because if it says "original part" or "factory part" they can hold it up in customs because of our laws (Happened to my son with Laptop Battery), but if it says "replacement part" or 'nop", there is no problem in the shipping..

    It is fucking stupid but that is the laws and there is nothing you can do about it....

    I'm fixed...

    (I've never used a rubber in my life... does that mean it's not safe to have sex now?)

    Shay I screwed up yesterday and just bought a 12 pack of Beck's beer.

    NOW... is masturbating off the table? Are pearl necklaces a form of infection to the recipient? VERY

    I gotta know!!!

    Beck's is one of the biggest con jobs these days. There was a time when it was made exclusively in Bremen, Germany, and then shipped to the rest of the world. Now that the brewery was bought by Inbev and then merged with Anheuser Busch, they started making it in the US (St. Louis, I believe). So they made it a domestic beer, effectively changing the flavor, but last I checked they still charge import prices.

    I don't buy it anymore.
