Hi Guys , hope your all good .
I was wondering if anyone could advise on importing from china.
I have been importing little bits here and there to my home adress.
I have read that its not the best idea to get it sent to the home adress, dont mix buisness and home.
So i was wondering if its ok to send it to a pobox.
The items I am importing are not ⊗⊗⊗⊗ but m,aybey drifting into vero , i doubt they are but just to be on the safe side I wouldent waant for my adress to be blacklisted.
So if i import to my pobox and the items get inspected and found to be vero (Im almost sertain they wont) will they ask the pobox company for the acount holders address and still link to my home address?
Any advice would be much apreciated.
Wrighty

Its no problem delivering to your home if you are declaring the import as its genuine cost and doing your tax return at the end of the year.

the only red flag is how paranoid and skeptical you are of your own business...aka you know exactly what you are selling. use a box, use your home, use a dumpster...you still sell coun.terf.eits

unkown5454....

Nope , wrong there chief. As far as im aware customs havent got x-men special powers to read minds and if they did i doubt they would be reading mine.
And if I had X-men special powers to read minds I wouldent be working in customs.
Cool story though bro.
keep up the good postes
To everyone else , thank you !

Unknown is exactly right, not sure why you have said what you have said.
Customs do have Xray machines, albeit not minds!, but they do have lists of certain items that they look out for and they do randomly open packages from time to time.
Sounds like you are importing phakes and underdeclaring value, once you get one siezed, your address will be on the blacklist.
Otherwise there would be NO problem using your own address, if the goods are legitimate, taxes paid, fully declared and not counterfeits.
Listen to the more experienced folk Wrighty, if you wish to trade in illegal goods, then be aware of the consequences.

Advised on how to get counterfeits through.
It wasn't a pointless post at all, many stealthers get upset with others selling counterfeits, because that was not what Stealth was designed or created for.
But remember to pack your soap in your overnight bag, just in case that knock on the door comes! Remember PO boxes require legtimate names to use to sign up for it, and HMRC can access that info just as quickly as you can drop your soap |

Why not post your items to your house?
No problem if they are legit and fully declared.
Simple question?

Simple question?

So why would you need to rent a PO box to take imports from China? Seems an additional cost.
Your address is fine if they are fully declared and legit. Because when you declare you income stream to the HMRC, you will need to put a business address, not a PO box address.
'Drifting into VERO', you cant drift into VERO, they are or they aren't and VERO items out of China?
Oops. Unfortunately, from your first post, you actually say they aren't legit.
Its fairly obvious what you are up to, but you do make me giggle, so thankyou | The Following User Says Thank You to wired For This Useful Post: | |

Wired ,
Takin a break from the soap and shower prison novel?
simple question:
do you import to your home address?
??
And I am new to vero but you would be suprised as to what can be classed as vero, do some reserch instead of writing your 50 shades of soap posts.
Im suprised you are on the forum and not out fighting crime with youre sleuth colombo type detective skills !
Im glad i make you giggle, but I think most of the people reading this will know your just saying that and are probably marching up and down your bedroom in an embarrassed rage.
Dont answer the question if you dont want to , and if you do please leave out your soap stuff.
