You cannot imagine how stupid I have been.
I ordered a Mykonos lizard KD from let Trade matching to a scarf I recently bought.
I had completely forgotten that it is Not allowed to Import exotics.
When I went to customs today they refused to live it to me and also refuse to send it back.
I am so pupset and sad and cannot believe I spent so much Money on NOTHING!
this is just unbelievable!
 
That's terrible!! I think the seller should have informed you that exotics are not allowed. From what I know, it takes 120 days for customs to clear on exotics. That's why many sellers refuse to ship to some countries.
 
Jeez, that must be very frustrating... I thought thats the reason you have cites certificate, so that one can buy / sell exotics across borders...isnt it?
