If it is not being seized, they can hold things up to 72 hours.

I'm pretty sure they are quick to respond. I am only going on knowledge from importing cars from the states. I had purchased a few there, and a couple were seized for 72 hours. I know this is pretty accurate accross the board. If your gear is seized, I would strongly suggest playing stupid and taking teh hit. Do not contact customs.

sorry, I should clarify... quick to respond if there is a PROBLEM at customs... if the duration is long, have patients and your gear will most likely come
