    Customs called my house

    Since when does customs call your house? My mom got a call from them telling her exactly what was being shipped to me. WTF is that? Is that even legal for customs to do? No letter from them as of yet. I got reshipped already, but I can't figure out why the call. Anyone else get a call?

    Why are you ordering stuff to your mom's house? And why are you ordering period, you are 19 years old.....way too young to be starting yet IMO.

    Well see, youre basically accused of a crime.

    Notice on the news when they say "so and so was arrested today on suspicion of murder" Theyre telling THE WHOLE WORLD when someone MIGHT have commited a crime.

    Customs did nothing illegal by telling your mom what MIGHT have been shipped to you, had you been the true orderer and it was not a prank.

    Let me tell you something... BE GLAD they told your mom. If Im a dick customs agent with no life and all I do in life is try to bust people to ruin their lives.... Once I tell that mom about what I found then I know ive done enough, I wont pursue anything legally.

    They didn't reship to same address, it's all done and over with. I just didn't expect a call, I wouldn't have cared about a letter.

    I've heard of someone getting a call before. I'm not sure why they decide to call and not send a letter in your case. Usually they send the love letter. But I think the call is the equivalent of the letter.... you're not in any immediate danger of being arrested, but they're holding your package, and you have the right to contest it or appeal for its release, etc etc.
    It'll be dropped by them now. If they wanted to bust you they would have made a delivery. But your name/addy is flagged. From now on, you'll need your vitamins delivered to a diff addy or PO box under a diff name.

    Just to throw something else out... maybe your mom got the package, opened it and said customs called so she could scare the shit out of you.

    I hope this registers as on topic... but I had my shit sent to me last Tuesday, and it hasn't shown up. My UGL contact says it shipped, and even sent me the confirmation number that shows delivery to my zip code from almost a week ago. Basically, I'm hosed for about $500 in gear, and need my PCT shit. My contact says I will probably get the package still, but I can't really wait. It's time for PCT, so I need the shiot. Anyway, has anyone else had this experience? I hope this isn't considered hijacking...

    Give it longer than a week. The place I got it from reshipped the taken order, and I got it the second time no problem. Dunno if your guy will reship or not, it's up to him. But I must say, vitamins are cheap from mexico.

    Never start a cycle until you have EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN HAND. Including PCT. Let this be a lesson to you.

    Yeah, that lesson I had already accepted, even before those two comments. Anyway, the lab says they'll give me half off my next order... anyway, do you think it's gone? Time to re-order?
