customs special

[barbells79]

anyone see the customs special on the discovery channel on sunday night? from the way it looks we have very little to worry about.(i know thats not true). these guys are way undermanned and the show made it look like all they were after was coke and pot. said they can only check about 7-8 percent of everything that comes into the u.s. so they have to be very selective as to what they spend their time going through. and those big cargo ships- well thats a whole other story..............
just makes me wonder how anything gets caught!

I would have to dissagree they are doing a pretty good job as of late... I can attest to that... JFK FUCK YOU!!! FUCK YOU CHICAGO!!! Man this thread pisses me off...

 

[barbells79]

thats the point of this thread................... they make it sound like they are really hurting for staff and money.
btw- what do they do with all of that seized money?

Well Chicago put me in the 7-8 % category earlier this year.......however today I received a package from England no problem... not even opened by Customs and even had the green tag on it and it was labled "Supplements"......go figure...

question

This may be a stupid question, but what happens when customs seizes your gear? Apart from you not getting it, I mean.

Do they come after you? If so, what happens?

If not, how do you know it was seized, and not that it was never sent or stolen/lost by the mail system?

Thanks, I'm starting to research my first order. A bit nervous.
