Thread: Razor didn't pass customs :(

I was waiting for a razor to come in from Belgium. I received it today but the package was empty. Im guessing it didn't pass customs.. they literally just took out the razor and left the packaging in there.. what @$$ holes.. what should I do?

If it didn't pass customs inspection they would have held it and/or sent notification. Unfortunately it is more likely that it was either stolen or not shipped.

FWIW, was it insured?

IDK if it was insured, it was a trade.. a slit was cut in the envelope the size of the razor also on top there was an opening that was taped again.. what do you think? Also no form telling me why it was gone.. where do you think it was stolen.. here or back in Europe?

It sounds very strange.
I have a hard time understanding a practice of removing the object and shipping the empty package to you.
No, to me it sounds as you where either taken for a ride, or someone, somewhere stole it while in transit.

I think it was stolen because if the CBP would have confiscated it they would have sent a note right?

That's not what I was referring to. I was thinking more of the possiblity that the shipper sealed the package but forgot to put the razor inside. A long shot yes, but just working through the possibilities.

Sorry to say, but the slit in the envelope points to theft. From some stories I've heard I wouldn't discount customs officials either

I had received a package from the USPS earlier this year, the package had been torn open, emptied and yet still delivered. I have another package I have sent 2 months back and it still hasnt gotten there. Theft may be running rampant. Looks like I will have to pony up to replace it. His package had a customs note that more than likely said razor on it, it was being imported so it was easily known to have value, a nice little slit and the razor is gone.
