Going Back to Mexico

[oubeta]

I'm going back to Del Rio to stock up on Tornell. I'm going to claim it again. I'll keep you posted on customs. I called them today again and they told me the same thing, sure only 50cc's per person. I took pics of the last trip claiming them, just incase. lol

Cute girl.

Although I'm not really interested in the vet stuff, I find it cool that you are pulling it off.

I don't understand it. I call other crossings and they tell me no way. I talked with Customs at Del Rio and they told me most people don't know the new law. They said 50 units per person wihch 1cc equals one unit. I bring back 5 and she claims 5 also. YOu can do this each time you cross. I asked him i fthey log them in, he told me I could come across 50 times a day if I wanted to.

So you are saying that you legally can return from Mexico with 50cc of gear?

Very cute girl - would like to see a full body pic though! Good luck, bro. Hope the roads between Del Rio and home are kind to you!

Has anyone else heard about this change in the law? Does anyone know where to get a copy of this law?

 

[LITTLEMAGS]

Wow...if that is a new law that would make life a lot easier.

Does this apply to all gear?

Well another trip that went well at Del Rio. I flew in to San Antone and we drove to Del Rio and stayed the weekend. Made two trips across and claimed 5Eq's per person each time we crossed. 30 miles out of Del Rio we hit the road block and all they asked was if we were US citizens. We didn't even hide it this time just left it in the sac in the back seat. I didn't plan on getting 20eq's but at $30 I just had to.
I mailed them to myself from San Antone and flew back. Nice little run!

HAH! I wouldn't try this at TJ crossing...they won't go for that at all. It doesn't work there. It MIGHT fly if you aren't bringing vet gear (which leaves pretty much sust redi-jects), but even then I wouldn't try it.
