D'oh! Seized by Customs!

[lcz128]

So! When F2F was having their awesome sale some months back, jumped at the chance of obtaining some of the encores and managed to score Megatron.

Fast forward to after the package is sent, and the package is sitting in customs (according to EMS tracking) for weeks and weeks.

I try and put through a claim and first they can't find the package, and now, finally, after about a month, I've received a letter from Customs saying that the package was seized. Great! At least I know where the heck it is now! Jeebus! >_>

Now I'm trying to follow up with the VIC licensing Services Branch to hopefully get my toys. It's been so bloody long and if I succeed, it'd be a nice birthday present (upcoming - on the 17th).

Argh. what a month >_>

Now it's off to try calling the bloke Fingers crossed!

---Update---

Ooookay. They guy I spoke to sounded quite aggravated. Was surprised at that. When I told him I'd seen it around town he was really aggro, saying that I don't care that they're there or how or when. wow! He said that there's 0% chance of getting the toy, but the other toys that I received with, as long as they cannot resemble a firearm, will be released.

So, I'm not too fussed about Encore Megatron now. I just want to get the other things I ordered...

I've called the customs number twice now and they BOTH go to answering machines. What the!?

The saga continues :\
