Seems they're holding the package as they say there is an extremely high value on the package... tens of thousands of AUD written on it as a value, no mention of opening it though. There's something fishy going on here so i'm waiting for their letter to arrive! apparently a GST notice. @brang1 Yes mate, should have followed the one watch per pack rule.

australis 21 Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) FWIW this is a Reddit thread on Oz Customs that resolved after the TD (TrustyT?) declared the Omega as a 'Hair curler valued at $16' Seemed the guy had to get the TD to send copies of the sales transaction docs that were sent to Customs and it cleared .. without need to pay the GST!! YMMV! https://www.reddit.com/r/RepTime/comments/mb3jhb/australia_overseas_import_customs_retained_for/ Edited June 10, 2021 by australis link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
