EMS almost a month in customs

[glh1309]

My suspicion is confirmed. I have had now two separate shipments pass through ISC NY without any tracking. The first tracking is a sorting center in Pittsburgh. Either the scanning equipment in NY has gone down, or it isn't being used. This makes the arrival of shipments at JFK invisible.

Same thing happened with one of my package as well. Second last update was inbound into customs and final update was it delivered to me. There was no update for outbound out of customs.

Ok, scanning of EMS tracking started up again today at ISC New York. It was down for four days. It even looks like they backfilled older entries.

Just to update you guys i still have not gotten this package and it still shows inbound into customs on USPS website. It is over 25 days now. Should i consider it seized? I have gotten two packages at that address since this stuck in customs.

Had a package in customs since July until now ... I though the package has been seized but tracking says released.

Kudos on using the search, but this thread is nearly 2 years old now.

May be better to look for more recent examples.

It has been almost ten days, that is not a good thing. It COULD still be released, but the chances diminish with each passing day. Keep an eye open for a letter from US Customs. If your package was seized, the letter will explain why.

More than 2 weeks - likely seized if nothing by this time

As time passes, the chances are less, but who knows, it's unpredictable. I had various experience.

This post is 2 years old, do we have any updates on what is the outcome if at all it is seized ?

[rsot]

Outcome? Letter for sure - if repeat, possibly legal action...tons of posts around here and the Internet.

What are you worried about ljakers?

What would be the point in an update?

We do not need outcomes if items are seized.

Many of us do not sell foo-foos.

Expand on your worries
