Twist the knife why don't u lmao !!
Nice to see that some stuff is making it across 
Yep, nice to see some are getting lucky!
EDIT - Ok, after spending nearly an hour chasing about, trying to get some clarification from parcelfarce, HM customs & excise AND the international hub, I think I may have found the root cause of RSOV parcels being held.
I have been told that my parcel has no pricing information, ie, a value of the goods anywhere on it. Without this, parcels won't be released until a form CP160 has been issued, filled in and returned. Then duty can be calculated, I can pay it and set a delivery date. I'd advise anyone ordering from RSOV to specifically ask for a value declaration to be included with the package and, hopefully avoid all of this nonsense so many of us are experiencing.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
What do i need to do then? Mine has been pending cutomes inspection since the 6th and im worried now.
If its passed 9 there is a 95% chance im pissed.
A couple of things;
First my last parcel to come from gunner via parcelfarce arrived in the country on the 29th August and immediately went to status Awaiting Custom Charges and stayed there until the 5th September and I recieved notification of the charges through the post on the 7th September, so Barcelona if it takes as long for yours to clear it may be the end of this week or the begining of next before you hear anything.
Secondly as I have said before anyone planning to order anymore guns, go to gunner, (he's virtually always cheaper than RSOV), and have them shipped via TNT because TNT don't hold the parcel while working out the Duty and/or Tax payable, they just deliver it and send you an invoice later.
For example I ordered 8 guns from gunner on the 31st August and the first attempt to deliver the parcel was on the 5th September, pretty good going

Though conversely, i went specifically with RSOV this time as my last parcel from Gunner got sent surface mail and took five weeks to get here, and Gunner's automated postage pricing system couldn't cope with the weight of guns i was ordering this time, and took over a week to reply to me with a cost for postage, by which time i'd thought he didn't want the £500 and so i went to RSOV.
i think it's just a case of swings and roundabouts with both of them
C160 arrived in the post this morning
Well nows your chance to grab a bargain it says RSOV will not send any more full guns over to the UK after 15th

One of my RSOV orders is waiting at the depot for me to collect tonight - took only a day to clear customs - gonna go tonight an collect/pay charges in person. 
The other is leaving Hong Kong today -
Got my C160 today too. I've put a copy of the invoice AND a velocity declaration in with it as well, just to be safe and avoid any more possible delays!

Still havnt got mine

Small Progress,
Received customs form C160 in the post today so they can figure out how much to charge my RSOV order. No sign of my Dennison from Sanjay yet.
I've ordered a little MP5K for some urban CQB I like doing every so often... Left HK on the 5th and nothing since. The mags I ordered separately are here though. Playing again next week and will have to use a renter or lug my Tommy all the way to London 
I just spotted an all metal AKS74U on RSOV, not ww2 but looks nice & only £49 my mate has ordered a mp40 so hopefuly he will be along to a game soon, Oddball has decided to deffect to the dark side after I sold him a m43 ski cap & German tunic, just need some grey paint for his tank now....

I got my C160 this morning will give it my um to fill out because she payed for it and its in her name.
If its passed 9 there is a 95% chance im pissed.
Christ i might see if i can get the cash for an ak74su at that price before the bill.
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
No change on the RSOV tracker but today the letter from the local hub arrived... 10 days after the parcel reached them
Filled in and posted the paperwork tonight. Anyone got an idea how long it takes them to send your stuff out?
If you track the parcel online, you can go and collect from your depot the day it gets there - 3 bits of ID and yer wallet... no need to wait for the letter...
My M14 came today with no extra charging dramas 
Going to pick up 1 package today, there are 2 still with HMRC, C160's returned.
So do the Customs people pass the package onto Royal Mail? Do they ethn deliver or do I need to get it from my RM depot? How long do Customs take to do their thing?
This is a total pain as I ordered the gun well in advance for some CQB next week. Now I have a stack of mags but no gun
