boneyjr 1 Posted April 20, 2011 I often hear people express concerns about customs. I am curious, what is the quantifiable risk? In other words, statistically speaking, what are the real chances of a package being seized by customs? (into the US specifically.) Moreover, are there certain things you can do to bring down the risk - i.e. order only 1 or 2 watches at a time.... Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted April 20, 2011 1-2 watches per order 3 max spread orders out over a week if from more than one dealer or same dealer (give a week between orders so they dont all show up at customs at once) cross fingers hope it doesn't come through port of miami Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted April 20, 2011 Never had any problems with L.A. Customs, except once, they held my watch for a month, but I got it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whenever someone is about to steal from you, lying about the value of what he is about to steal might help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
