    what do i do now

    i placed an order in the middle of February with a supplier. i waited patiently but never received the package. so i assume it was seized. but i have not received a seizure letter. and now this supplier is telling me im basically out of luck...they want me to believe that a federal organization as big and important as the united states customs would just forget to send a seizure letter. i know this isn't true. it is a supplier that is on the supplier list of this and other forums so i know they are legit...so why are they dicking me around like this...and what do i do now

    I've heard of them never arriving, sometimes taking 6 months to arrive.

    Wait and see I guess. If not write it off as a loss

    Yup, you'll probably have to take it as a big loss. Why not try those same lists or other boards for a domestic and never worry about customs?

    Sorry about the possibly losing the $$ really sucks. You never know maybe you'll get your pack soon though.

    Not to hijack the thread, but do people ordering international EVER get their shipments anymore? It seems like everyday there are new posts about shipments being seized by customs. I'm beginning to wonder if this is a dead way to get gear nowadays.

    has anyone ever thought of this.........cops read these boards all the time right? so when people sit here and discuss how things work i.e. that when something gets seized scan the seizure letter and e-mail a copy and they will re-ship the order and bla bla bla. well how long do you think its gonna take customs and l.e. in general to STOP sending seizure letters? now you have no way to get your gear resent...........does everyone get it now? maybe if people quit discussing certain things on open boards things would go a lot better. just like sachetes, how long did it take for people to post pics of them? well now they are gonna get seized too. i think it is just a matter of time before you will never see another seizure letter again! just my 2 cents.

    IMO, this is a rediculous post. Come on, you are ordering illegal gear off the internet, and you are complaining about not getting it. That's the way the game works, if you dont like it, dont play.

    you might still receive a letter some day, who knows. look into a domestic source or a source who will resend perhaps.

    Sucks not to get your gear but in this case doesn't sound like theres much you can do about it except chalk it up to bad luck.
