#shipping-customs 2025-03-15

Saturday27 messages6 participantstimes are UTC
Highlights from this day
  • food_noise_off — split shipments arriving weeks apart is normal and is usually a stock thing, not a customs thing 17:19
  • food_noise_off — signature requirements slow things down and do not obviously reduce loss 17:38
  • site_itch — the same address every time is fine. a different address every time looks worse, not better 18:56
  • amsterdam_aliquot — reship policies vary enormously. BCH honoured one for me without being pushed, which is not universal nobody here can tell you what will clear customs where you live… 20:39
  • food_noise_off — parcel is sitting at a port with no movement, is that customs or just a port 20:52

is it worth paying for a faster service or does customs eat the difference

paying for a faster service does not speed up customs. it speeds up the legs either side of customs

FN

unrelated but if you query a missing parcel, be factual and patient. the good suppliers respond to that

VB

Batch lookup H-2814: 3 independent reports on file, earliest 2024-12-08.

nobody here can tell you what will clear customs where you live and the mods stop that conversation quickly
