DuTCH Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Gripper hasn't arrived this week. Grrrr! We were kinda expecting it to arrive this week though, because most of the time shipping is fast. If the gripper has not arrived on monday, we have to change the date.. More rest days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Today should have been the cert day, but since the gripper hasn't arrived yet, we will wait for it and set a new date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Piche Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Looks like the Netherland authorities are holding it hostage to the tune of $24 dollars according to Theo. This is nothing but bunk. This never happened last time and they are whacky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat 74 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Holy bat, crapman! $24!? Good luck Theo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Held hostage Yes, it is been held hostage, and I called with several departments calling them all sorts of names you won't find in a dictionary. Looks like I still have to pay them the money. I'll pick it up tomorrow, because I very grumpy old guy was working there, and I came in with the note that said it is in the postoffice.. Well, after standing in line for half an hour, i come up to his desk and hand him the paper. He looks at me and said, "can't help ya" .. So i say, "why not".. he goes: "because i can't" and i say:"Why not??" 'it has not been filled in properly' he says "whaddayamean??" 'today is 21st of march so the package is not in' 'but he gave it to me yesterday!!!' 'So guess the mailman filled in the wrong date then..' 'Well, can you look???' 'No, you will have to come back later' 'SON OF A !!!'' So, tomorrow i'll pick it up, and i hope the hot chick will be working there, instead of this customer unfriendly grumpy naggin old guy! Cert will take place on monday 14:00 in the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Did you ask them what the issue was? This is ridiculous to have to pay that cost! Seems shady and a scam to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Found out why i have to pay this amount. Even though it was a gift, because it was insured i think up to more than 45 dollar, i have to pay taxes. That it is a gift is not relevant, when you come above a certain amount of money, you will have to start paying tax. Why it didn't happen the other time, or any other time I got sth from the US, was that it wasn't never more than 45 dollar. The amount it is worth.. The only time was when i bought a Rolling thunder and a book from IM, i had to pay sth. So, that clears the story, but it still sucks big time!
