I think that says it all really:amen:

Imakemoney 05-04-2011 10:44 AM

I've never had a parcel seized...

So yeah if you're all legit then you wont have a problem with seizures will you :D

For the people who have the same supplier-different address seizure problem....check the tracking numbers. I had a batch of vero go down in one week and noticed there was only a few hundred between the numbers on AGXXXXXXXXXXXGB. Not sure but I got the feeling this was a flag for them.

Also, as we are not really encouraged to talk about what you are selling, what I will say is that it does depend on the type of item you are selling. For example, I have 2 types of Vero I do, one can look like many different things when it goes through a scanner, the other will be very easy to identify. I have have 2 x 10 kilo packages delivered to my door, on the same day (which even my supplier could not believe) without a problem, where as with the easily identifiable item I have had individual packages (1 item) seized.

Also if your vero item is easily identified in the way it is packaged that is also a big no no.

TBH excluding gold star members who "never have and never will" sell vero (LOL) us dark sided members are probably selling the same stuff. Maybe we should get our own page on it.

^^ Selling vero is a personal choice anyway, nobody cares and nobody is judging you.

I just find it funny when the same members eventually open threads saying something like "HELP I AM GETTING SUED!!!" :lol:

Yes, the situation being UK customs are clamping down on trademark infringements. I want them to stop.

Anyone know of a EU country to have goods from china sent to where they can then be forwarded to the UK for lessen the scrutiny?

Thanks.

Imakemoney 05-13-2011 11:01 AM

I arrange deliveries from china to UK on a regular basis. I haven't had one seizure out of 8 deliveries this week. Hope that helps

customs are seizing only certain types of goods, thats why most on here will have no problems with customs but theirs a certain few who are selling the same items that are having problems. we need to solve this s hit.

Stopping counterfeits: new UK Customs rules introduced

This explains the procedures that we have been seeing lately. It was introduced in 2009 but must be getting stronger and stronger.

Anyone else finding anything about customs procedures then post it. It is better than speculating :thumb:

stealthmaster 05-13-2011 07:28 PM

Anyone selling "VERO" items expect sometime to get your package seized especially if from importing from known "Counterfeiting" Countries like "China", like I've said before personal choice if you wish but don't expect UK customs to bend over like they may have before. eBay is getting fined big time for letting eBay sellers sell "Counterfeit" goods, so in there interest and UK customs interest they are willing to fight against it.

Stealth Master :clap:

GTB 05-14-2011 11:12 AM

is that a fact???
i thought eb didnt let people sell vero???

ShadyOne 05-14-2011 12:29 PM

^^ Haha GTB :doh:

"Fined"

Littlemorestealth 05-16-2011 03:48 AM

For the people who have had successful packages, are your items clothing or something more specific?
