Wriggles 12 Posted January 15, 2015 There's no guaranteed method of getting a M2M purchase through customs into the US or any other cross border delivery, if you're so worried about it don't buy M2M from outside CONUS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cannibal 0 Posted January 15, 2015 In my expereince anything shipped from europe directly to north america using a private courier company means you will get more customs scrutiny than if you use whatever country's regular mail service. For Canada, I can get something FedExed to me from Italy and get nailed with duty for sure. UPS same thing. But anything coming regular mail, even if it's tracked/insured... I've never had anything like that opened or charged duty, etc., on. But thats my expereince. YMMV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
