Clearance Event
 

Clearance event:
I ordered around 150 stickers with Apple iPhone name on them. there was not logo on the stickers.
Just the name Apple iPhone with capacity 32GB, 128GB
I only ordered them for labelling my inventory. no box, no chargers... just stickers with the capacity and serial numbers.

the package was only 0.5kg but the DHL tracking says 'Clearance event'
Will these stickers be opened and confiscated now?

Re: Clearance Event
 

No, not necessarily. If you post the rest of the tracking details I'll try to give you an idea what's going on.

Re: Clearance Event
 

It means your package is in customs. You likely have no legitimate reason to receive apple product stickers. Maybe customs releases it, maybe they seize it.

Update: it seems customs released it today.
I should now just invest in a nice laser printer for future labels as dhl has become a real Pain:suspicious:

Re: Clearance Event
 

So you're selling Apple Phones with these stickers?

Re: Clearance Event
 

I can't imagine any legitimate reason to have these stickers. 'Inventory reasons' my *ss!

That said, the tracking looks exactly like my DHL shipments tracking, (partial below), so I don't think there'll be a problem.

Re: Clearance Event
 

I bought a foofoo iPhone off of DHgate last year just to check it out (wouldn't dream of trying to sell it). It was a surprisingly good copy, except for the fact that all the "apps" turned out to be the Android equivalent. "App store" goes to Google Play Store, "Mail" goes to Gmail, "Maps" goes to Google Maps. The software was a dead giveaway, but I guess it was neat to see how much effort they put into "goophones".

OP - If you're doing anything like that, you're a scumbag.

Bad business, bad idea.
