Depends what it was they got mate, I ordered Monty Phython and the holy grail on region 1 when it first came out over there, and they took it becasue it was uncertified, and I've had porn sent from holland, opened, and sent on, by them, go figure!

Destroyed? My arse. More like fuckin confiscated by some hairy palmed official...
Still, as you said, let sleeping dogs lie, no point antagonising them over a few quid. Just order the thing again...

actually it was a knuckleduster and 2 cans of cs gas.i was going to give 1 can to a young model i know who was assaulted by a photographer recently to make her feel a bit more safe.the area where i live is full of gangs of asylum seekers and chavscum who like mugging and intimidating people.i was planning to give them a bit of the charles bronson treatment.thats why i am dubious about contesting the issue with customs

Trying to bring in CS gas? You're lucky the boys in blue aren't kicking in your doors.

CS gas is easy enough to pick up over here, as are knuckledusters, then again CS is classed as a firearm isn't it? so your probably liable to be shot if the Police are alerted to you spraying it about, theres something called
"X marker"
which you can get from spyteck
it's legal as well, and a lot safer (for you, not for them!)
it has a few points of defence, a loud deafening tone, and can dye the assailants face blue for a week, or incase them in foam, theres a few different kinds, one also makes them stink worse the a crack ho's puss, I have one in the shop, hopefully I'll never have to use it
