SN seized at border, UK customs ruined it again

[FuzzyRylan]

Foiled again. Found a 99% supplier in Germany, after only finding <95% sources locally, they asked why i was buying it, good thing i got top marks in science to improv up a reason. They were happy, shipped it next morning. Enter UK customs. Immediately confiscated at the UK border and some unhappy officers appeared on my door because and I quote "it is used in [ctb] kits". Fobbed them off, good thing i do actually own a company so that is on record to continue the fake reason with them too, and escaped without having to see anyone that i'd rather not see. They still refused to clear the SN through customs.

I am guessing my failure here was ordering from an industrial supplier directly, and an overseas one at that, also possible 500 grams of the stuff was a bit alarming to customs, but it was the lowest amount they had in stock. I have seen references to DMC here but i couldn't find out what that acronym meant reliably so i ended up using industrial sources due to having a (dormant) company, but either it being dormant foiled me, or perhaps the supplier was far too honest on the paperwork.

I guess I have to keep going on with life for a couple more weeks at least, i've no idea how some people manage to get it so readily. I am guessing it is DMC as the source, i did see references to whatsapp too but nothing for me to go on to seek it out myself.

My DMC SL arrived ok

Frustrado novamente. Encontrei um fornecedor com 99% de pureza na Alemanha, depois de só encontrar fornecedores com menos de 95% de pureza localmente. Eles perguntaram por que eu estava comprando, e por sorte tirei nota máxima em ciências para inventar uma desculpa. Eles ficaram satisfeitos e enviaram o produto na manhã seguinte. E então, para a alfândega do Reino Unido. Foi imediatamente confiscado na fronteira britânica e alguns agentes furiosos apareceram na minha porta porque, cito, "é usado em kits [ctb]". Dei um jeito de disfarçá-los, ainda bem que eu realmente tenho uma empresa, então isso fica registrado para eu continuar com a desculpa esfarrapada também, e escapei sem ter que ver ninguém que eu preferisse evitar. Mesmo assim, eles se recusaram a liberar o produto na alfândega.

Acho que meu erro foi encomendar diretamente de um fornecedor industrial, e ainda por cima estrangeiro. Talvez 500 gramas do produto tenham levantado suspeitas na alfândega, mas era a menor quantidade disponível. Vi algumas referências à DMC aqui, mas não consegui descobrir o significado da sigla com certeza, então acabei usando fornecedores industriais por ter uma empresa (inativa). Mas ou o fato de a empresa estar inativa me prejudicou, ou talvez o fornecedor tenha sido honesto demais na documentação.

Acho que tenho que continuar levando a vida por mais algumas semanas, pelo menos. Não faço ideia de como algumas pessoas conseguem isso tão facilmente. Imagino que seja o DMC como fonte; vi algumas referências ao WhatsApp também, mas nada que me levasse a investigar por conta própria.

DMC?

Hey I'm sorry this happened to you. Can I ask how long after finding out it had been seized at the border (Im presuming from the tracking staying there) did police turn up? And was it local police?
