There's probably a tighter custom check after the failed bomb attempt on the flight...

The bomb theory won't wash my watch was held in customs on the 22nd of December. It is being released today or tomorrow, Fish and Wildlife had to insure it wasn't an exotic case

I heard from Ralf and my watch doesn't have a tracking number (not sure how that happened), so he's checking into things with Fedex. Hope to hear more soon.

Well guys all i can say is DON'T PANIC! I called FedEx today and was also told that I had nothing in the system. Not ten minutes later I receive an email that another package I have been waiting for was to be delivered today but no one was around to sign for it. This made a bot suspicious so I called FedEx again. They confirmed that the package from Houston was in their possession and another delivery attempt would be made tomorrow. I told them that I thought this was strange because the online tracking said the TX package was still in transit with an expcted delivery date of 12/30. They did some checking and then apologized profusely. It turns out the attempted delivery was for my Benarus from HK and not the TX PACAKAGE as they had originally told me! I have no idea how they could confuse two shipments that are so dis-similar? My suggestion for this of you that called an received a negative response........ Call 'em again!

i found out today that customs recieved the paper work needed for the declared value, now fish and game has to inspect the packaging to make sure it is not real gator. fed ex said they would be there today to do this. i tell ya there is nothing worse than knowing my meg is less than 100 miles from me and has been since the 22nd. i hope to see it in person in the next day or two ??

Just wanted to give you guys a update on my FedEx delivery. I was told yesterday my Megadolon was held up for customs in the South but to my utter surprise it was delivered to me this morning in the West Coast. Good luck to you guys still waiting and dont forget to call the FedEx Intl office twice a day to nudge them along.

I just provided Fed Ex with all the break out pricing I could for the 2 stuck in California, plus I provided paypal records of the final payment to show it was not $1,000 and I explained to them a lot of details of our business and how we work online in the forums. I spoke with the fish and game guy on the phone and he was very nice and I emailed him macro photos of the box to show the repeating pattern. He emailed me back and said everything was fine and he would tell FedEx to release the watch... but the next day I got a call from Fed Ex and they said customs was not going to release it because they still think it was sold at $1,000 This is why I provided more details today and payment records. I also provided a link to the thread "Megalodon Will Come" from back in May 09 stating that it will be $650 for 1 week. I am not sure if a link to a 3T thread will help with customs, but at this point I am giving them every detail I can. The Fed Ex agent said he won't be able to discuss this with customs again until Monday.
