Highlights from this day
  • mg_per_ml — paying for a faster service does not speed up customs. it speeds up the legs either side of customs 12:09

  • bengaluru_bac — coming back after 7 months, has anything changed with Poland the same address every time is fine. a different address every time looks worse, not better 14:24

while im here vat is usually charged on declared value plus shipping, and the handling fee is often more than the vat

follow up courier or postal service, which has been better for the Netherlands

BB

coming back after 7 months, has anything changed with Poland
the same address every time is fine. a different address every time looks worse, not better

split shipments arriving weeks apart is normal and is usually a stock thing, not a customs thing

postal has been better than courier for me every single time. couriers are more thorough
