    Couldn't find a section this fit in. Long story short. Got 10 bottles of deca seized a few weeks ago from customs. Got letter and turned into source and they did a reship. Same address. Same name. I have a tracking number and I see it just got to customs again. What happens if it's seized again?

    Wondering if I should take precautions and clean house lol

    You been flagged, expect a knock on your door. Remember it's a crime to lie to a federal agent! Good luck.

    Lol. Obviously that's worst case scenario.

    Who's to say someone didn't try to ship me stuff twice trying to get me in trouble?

    Regardless, I've read plenty of people getting seized twice in a row with just the same letter over and over. I was just wondering if anyone from this board has had experience.

    I have had dozens of overseas shipments come to me and have never had anything seized, you must be unlucky. Having worked for the federal government in the military and law enforcement I would have to say that they probably have bigger fish to fry. Unless of course they are seizing a lot of this source's shipments, then he could be a big fish. I wouldn't worry about it, if they do send you a seizure letter, or worse, I would count your losses and cut load.

    It doesn't necessarily mean my second batch has been seized. I was just wondering what if. Especially since it just happened a few weeks ago to the first shipment. But thank you! Makes me feel better. I already cleaned house in case. I look like a natty guy if you search lol

    I had my shipment sit at customs for almost a month. I was getting a little worried. Apparently New York's customs just sucks.

    Whatever you do, DO NOT order around Christmas time.

    I got a seizure letter once and 3 weeks later the very package they supposedly seized was dropped off. Go figure. I would not worry all that much but by the same token I would not be stupid and naive either. They may be after bigger fish but if the same name and/or addy comes up over and over they arent gonna sit by forever without doing something.

    I work for a large shipping company and have been there 25 years and with the amount of volume they handle around the holiday season, much gets overlooked.

    How far apart were the seized packages?

    Indeed, I am willing to bet my package got overlooked or backlogged for two months before they finally sent it to its next destination. Lesson learned.
