Dear ASC, I currently have rage guy's face. Seriously, that's retarded.
So... I posted last week about the CBSA, and I've finally been able to talk with an agent.
They told me the gun in my package has been seized... so I was like WTF? I'm not stupid enough to order a gun from Hong Kong, there must be a mistake... I asked the agent to describe me what was the "gun" that got seized (maybe the shop made a mistake in the order?), and what she told me confirmed what I had doubts about... the "gun" is the gearbox.
I explained her that this isn't a gun, but a gearbox, and that I did check the appropiate memorandum which states that only gun replicas are prohibited -not gearboxes....
She then told me that she is aware of this, and that yes, GEARBOXES are explicitely prohibited from import !?!?!?
I'm well aware that it's totally wrong, so I didn't really know what to say...
I asked her if there was any memorandum I could confirm that with, and she answered that she was going to release the rest of the package and send the gearbox to their weapons expert to determine what to do, and who would refer me the proper memorandum to back up her claims (if she was correct).
Does anyone have any info from previous situations that could have been similar, or any tips for me?
Thanks!
Conker
