Damn Stupid Customs! Stop holding my parts shakes fist in fury

cough cavity joystick search cough

I hope they don’t use my joystick :shake:

So whats the news? are we getting our order today or are we expecting more delays?

If it’s still warm, ask for another one :wink:

lol its being dealt with by the brokers now.

any possibility of posting a list of running orders so we can check and confirm everything is right?

Group 3 is the most depressing group of these group buy, almost 3 weeks from ordering, nothing =(.

Stupid Customs! They let weapons pass through the border like each one held a Canadian citizenship!

Whereas grandma’s homemade cookies and our parts, they take for fuking ever!

**Its been at customs for a week now! :arazz: **

The only weapons of mass destruction here is US legitimate Citizens!

PS:

Infamouskid try to avoid EMS again the future… it maybe fast delivery but its bitch to get pass customs = its worst then regular parcel and almost comparable to SNAIL MAIL (as we’re witnessing first hand).

Any new updates for today, infamous? Thanks.

tracking is listed when orders are shipped

I’m afraid this is the case with any courier regardless of any company you ship through. Canada border services has the right to seize, stop, open and inspect any parcel at any time. it was just unfortunate that out of all the group buys this one was picked at random. in a way this is disappointing but at the same time i am happy to see my tax dollars at work. i don’t think this will be an issue again since there is a permanent record of my broker on file now. again this is not an everyday thing. i have ordered larger and multiple stuff all at once before and not had a problem at all in the past like group 1 and 2. the role of border services is to ensure there are no illegal items being imported into Canada the role of customs is to make sure we are paying our harmonized, provincial and federal taxes on all parts. this is why they required me to show proof of product origin so they can verify to see the supplier is a real company and not a weapons manufacturer.

power of attorney and release forms were submitted yesterday evening by the broker. they tell me that customs should release the parcel to Canada post anytime this evening.
this will not be a problem again since i am now stocking 50% more of everything starting next buy.
i will also be listing what is in stock and what is not with expected delivery dates. this will all be shown in the upcoming website which is under construction. this will also in turn automate and speed things up since ordering will be done with out my required interaction. my main priority right now is to get group 3’d and 4’s orders out asap. second is to get the website up and running to make things easier for all you guys.

our babies are still at customs. :arazz:

not necessarily. they could have been released already. for some stupid reason customs offices are not open to the public which i find totally absurd. i can contact border services but beyond that i have no way of knowing where and when anything happens from within the governments hands. from my stand point i have done everything required that they have requested. the last and final part of this is for border services to fax customs the forms my broker has submitted then clear Canada post to continue destination to me.

lol believe me my babies are in there too. :stuck_out_tongue:
i have a feeling the other guys are having this problem too but are not informing their customers. i’ll continue to answer everyone’s concerns and questions based on what knowledge i know.
because of this delay and the inconvenience anyone from group buy 3 and 4 will be given an extra incentive on the opening of the website for their next future order. i take my seller credibility very seriously and i intend to keep it’s integrity intact.

Well if you get it today call me ASAP! I’ll swing on by to pick them up! =D

Incentive eh…?

How about you just give group 3&4 each member a 100 credits towards “InfamousKid’s Arcade?” =P
"First Dibs on the Delta 2, after the Infamouskids’ Children of course"
