I had placed an order on March 23, 2011 which was received in India on 4th April. Since then, it is pending customs inspection. Upon talking to them over the phone, I was informed that some custom officers are on leave and hence the work load has increased tremendously on the remaining lean staff that they have. It will be appraised soon and send accordingly.

I believe, even your parcel will be in queue. Hence, it is advised to wait and watch, you should get your parcel soon.

ohh...thank you for telling me that !

Guys,

I was wondering, what do you guys usually add to your cart, which is less than 50 grams, to completely utilise the shipping weight for that slab?

cheers!

Bakya.

Props

i remove stuff and slide into the nearest lower slab my orders rarely reach the 500 grams slab. i used to add stuff before and ended up collecting lots of stuff that i dont need, some items are still in their original packing. if i would have continued doing that i'd have becam an LHS by now 

ps: this should be in any thing and everything hobbyking

Why not list your redundant/unwanted items, for sale?

i don't know, i always feel that i'll need this later. I have even kept all my glow stuff with me although i am pretty sure i'm not going back, but who knows 

Merged into HobbyKing thread...

thanks guys

we are here to   

I would split the cart in three or two orders, and wait for the first order to get dispatched from Hongkong before placing my second order. This is not required but gives me some piece of mind. Plus i like receiving those brown boxes, the more the merrier 
 

ya but the thing is ive already paid yesterday. it amounted to $155 and i declared it as hobby parts and 30% declaration so what amount of duty charge should i pay

does influence help

I wonder, why everyone, including me, finds this forum after they have already ordered Tx/Rx!!! now what I would say - PRAY.... its true that many have got it thru, but then like me, other have got into trouble. To answer your actual question - YES.

If u r ordering radio means don't add anything to tat parcel..This policy may clear ur parcel..

I live in bangalore .so will the customs open it in bombay or bangalore .

i hate these customs .They will neither open good hobby stores nor allow shipment .Then wat should the people do , run away from india uh

Dont worry, we will all pray that you will get your shipment fast and hassle free

Haha... I understand how you feel....
The customs are just doing their job.
You shouldn't have ordered in this month because most of the officers at Mumbai customs are on Leave....so the remaining few custom officers have to check a Large amount of packages....
And for the record, I have been waiting for 9 days since my package from HK got stuck up at mumbai customs.

ya but will they first open the parcel in bombay and then in bangalore or open it only in bangalore .i live in bangalore
