Just received that dreaded letter from Customs that a package of mine had been seized this week.

Haven't had a letter yet but this is the 4th or 5th post I've read in a month about it.

Had an order lined up but decided to hold out a while.

Things may not be as bad as I first thought. I have exchanged several emails with the vendor since yesterday afternoon. He is of the opinion that the letter I received is for a previous order. He asked me if I had any other orders that went missing and I advised that I had two from different vendors earlier this year. His experience with US Customs is it normally takes approximately six months for them to generate a letter after seizing an order.

Guess I will know in the next couple of days.

And fyi, the other vendors did make good on their missing orders.
