Comex 0 Posted July 31, 2011 Hello people, I'm from the Netherlands and been into reps for two years now. Bought several crappy ones and learned a lot, found eventually a good dealer and last friday I ordered a Breitling Super Avenger by one of your registered trusted dealer (Timeshops.net) Best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Comex 0 Posted July 31, 2011 It is already sorted out, they are going to re-ship my package via the UK. I had to pay less then 50% of the original amount and no shipping fees. I just want to warn people that Dutch customs is more active then before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amuthon 0 Posted July 31, 2011 I don't know about dutch customs, but your intention of a warning sounds reasonable. The shipping via UK is a must for german members, we kinda "invented" customs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comex 0 Posted July 31, 2011 Haha, I hope my Super Avenger isn't going to be held, cause I ordered it before I received the letter from customs. Hopefully the carrier makes the difference, DHL. They enter Europe through Belgium. Pray to god that customs didn't register my name!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The point of entrance (in Europe) shouldn't make any difference, it is only the national point of entrance, that could make a difference. No idea if they register your name, but you could try shipping it to another adress next time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have any idea where I can "put" a new topic concerning this? You might wanna get in touch with Silverspeed and he never seems to have custom issues from what I've heard.. He's from the Netherlands aswell // Hello and Welcome to RWG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted July 31, 2011 Both TNT and DHL are bad as they do their own customs clearance and are tigers. The dealer should know better than to send them that way. Normal airmail is best, far less risk. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comex 0 Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Timeshops advised DHL cause of customs. The re-shipment of the other order from another dealer is being send to a mate of mine. For the SA it was to late, ordered and shipped before I got the letter from customs. Keeping my fingers crossed mspangl, I will contact Silverspeed. Thanks for the advice.
