emmuzka I can't believe this!! €%%€&€#!!! My BOBBLEHEADS got caught on customs!!
I mean, WTF? I bought some used dolls worth 15 dollars and the customs stop them?! What?
The customs is in the middle of nowhere and now I have to drag myself there to find out where the problem is.
ETA: Got the stuff from customs. Because the package came from outside EU, they can stop whatever they want, never mind how cheap or expensive. The lady in the customs got my box, gave me scissors and was like, "open it." My first reaction was "um, why?". After that it was all "See, toys?" and showing the receipt that I had printed.
At home, I found out that one of the dolls had been broken in the delivery, if it hadn't been broken in the first place. Super glue took care of that. They were in far worse condition to what I had been waiting for, but it's not that they wouldn't look freaky in any condition.
Coda: I paid 13 dollars for them, and because they came with "free shipping", I only paid 5 dollars extra for the international shipping. Guess how much the shipping *really* cost to the seller? 28.55 dollars. oops.
