Source dosen't believe goods seized

[totti28]

What's up guys. I recently had a int'l order seized by Chicago customs. Items were sent from Denmark. This is the second seizure within the past month from this Denmark source. This individual is so confident in his shipping methods that he refuses to believe that the goods were seized. He seemed skeptical that the first seizure even occured, however I scanned the customs letter to him and he agreed to a resend. However, after the second seizure which also occured in Chicago, I e-mailed him and explained the situation. His reply: " I'm sorry but we cannot do anymore business" Bros, I feel very insulted by this short, rude response. I have given this individual a good amount of business within the past month or two and this is the treatment that I recieve. I even offered to scan the letter in the package to him. This is upseting because I felt that I had established a trusting relationship with this individual. How would you guys go about handling this? Thanks and I would greatly appreciate any advice.

If this seizure has hapened twice... his packaging must be very poor. So, I would assume that it's his fault. However, if he doesnt want to business with you, then he probably wont no matter what you do. Consider finding another source bro.

I am thinking about calling this individual out on other boards about this. I would like to warn other bros about this guy, and the kind of treatment that they could possibly recieve. Any suggestions on this.

Actually you're lucky that he even attempted to do business with you. Some sources won't even consider it if the package has to go through the Chicago port

Dude that happened to me several months ago when a source out of romania said he sent my shit out...WELL I waited for 4-8 weeks before I took action just to give him the shadow of a doubt... After I told him that my shit never got here and I never got a customs letter he did not believe me. He thought I was fucking him!!!! Finally after getting mods to email him about the matter did he resend... WEll at least 1/2 my order!!!!!

So moral of the story stay shy of big hearts and hot cables#$%

I believe that all reg. airmail from Denmark enters the U.S. through the Chicago port of entry. I am very closed to NYC, so why wouldn't of hit JFK? This individual I am sure is aware of this situation of reg. airmail entering via Chicago. I feel that that I am being somewhat scammed in this situation. This guy knows that Chicago is very good at seizing gear, and yet he is indirectly saying that I am lying about the seizure! Bros, I really feel that I should call this guy out about this.

elite hot topic, the fucked up thing is that I have the letter which came in the package stating that the goods are an illegal importation, Chicago Customs, blah blah blah.....yet this guy made no mention of wanting to see a scanned copy? I am expecting to recieve a second letter in a few weeks, and he made no mention of that either?

If I were u I would turn to the person who refered you.... More than likely they can pull some strings.

This guy has not come through on many orders as of late - lots of people on other boards complaining of him not resending seized packs.
