  1. Well my Western has arrived in Dublin!  An post are waiting for payment of the customs charges but I got no email or SMS from them so chasing that up now.

    This  order was from the Cheltenham Model Centre, I provided them with the Taric Code and the info need to get the customs entry sorted, The CMC never heard of a Taric code so this would of not been on the package had I not advised them and therefore it would of been returned to sender. good job I asked!

  5. It is most likely a good book as flange says, but 60 pages @ STG40.00. Crazy price. That is €47 Euros.

    Same as the Aircraft books they have gone up massively in price. I've given up buying these and will looking at getting rid of what I have as the net now caters for much of what I need.

    I know it gets cash etc for the IRRS etc...

    Yeah, markers to denote areas of Japanese Knotweed.  Here's the Irish Rail equivalent taken on a lineside walk during a site visit this summer.

  7. You would not want to be in a Hurry though. I sent a Merchant Navy (brand new) as the sound decoder was not working, all the delicate bits did not survive the handling whistles Missing Etc. Bit mad about that TBH.

  8. Good Evening,

    "As we cannot amend or rectify any electronic customs data"

    Seems to me that it is the info from source that is wrong here. Some Clearing systems use the Data transmitted from across the water to Create the entry here, if it is incorrect then your goosed it seems.

    Given postal stuff cant be tracked normally if it is not registered I am not surprised that cant tie up with the sender.

    A colleague told me a ball of wool was stopped from the UK and RTO. I will buy from Europe these days, bit longer but I got some CDs in the door today no hassle.

    Ask them can a broker clear it for you?

     

    George.
