Anyone in UK got VCI-100 SE?

[dj q-tee]

I was able to get the contact info of the right customs and they said my package was in hold up because they had no reciept, i emailed them a screenshot of my paypal reciept with a detailed description of the product and every info i could imagine.
After they could confirm that they got that email they will now send my vci within 3 days, else they would have just sended it back to the US.
Stupid Belgium customs
Can't wait for my doorbel to ring

Did you ask them if they intended on charging you customs taxes and if so how much???

After reading alot of forums about why the Belgium customs do this locking of packages it's about getting those taxes.
The most important thing for me to get my package was to send the reciept so they probably can calculate how much then can charge.
I also read on some forums that when the Belgium customs get "gifts" send it they lock them very fast because too many people abuse this kind of sending.
I think the best thing to do is send it with the reciept on the outside of the box in plastic (maybe even a reduced fake reciept is good) but the customs here really want to see that reciept if it comes from USPS. Other delivery services have less trouble with this if i can believe some forums.

If i get a taxbill i'll let it know how much, but i expect about 25% of the total price (witch i love to pay, i just want my vci-100 SE! )
I took the possible taxes into account when ordering the vci, this way i'm not surpriced when i get a reciept
