Status: Inbound Out of Customs

blu62vette

Any idea what this status is on USPS tracking? It is a package I sent in state, found it rather weird.

Placid

Means it cleared customs and is on its way.
Maybe someone hit the wrong button

First thought was that California was kicked out of the Union. But, then you
said it's in state. Perhaps S. Cal and N. Cal have split the sheets?

I see that one a lot on cigar purchases I make from Switzerland

Package inspection? Opening to check contents to see if there are are any illegal contents [drugs, weapons, post-ban scanners, etc]?

Disregard. Anything out of the USA plays by their own rules.

package inspection is not what I want on coin shipments.

Does that mean the coins i just mailed to you will be inspected by customs when you send them back? Now it will take the USPS 15 days from Sacramento to San Bernardino County.

Sounds like it ended up on the wrong plane...

30 % Duty Due... Kidding. Sounds like a goof.

Hope it is a goof and not duty due!!! CA does need money though...

I recently received several high value coin shipments from overseas. The first batch came in untouched. The second batch they opened one of 3 Fedex boxes, they then opened one of 4 envelopes. They taped everything back with their green "opened for inspection" tape and sent it right along. The third batch of boxes came through untouched. My guess is they are looking mostly for drugs. My other guess is they are pretty careful about theft in the opening room.

Yea, I'd say someone hit the wrong button but my post was meant to reassure you even if it did inadvertently go through customs. --Jerry

Maybe it was rerouted on the Dubai-Cologne route.

messydesk

Maybe one of the stops along the way is now considered part of Mexico.

sadly it is headed that direction in the first place....

At least it cleared:

Your item cleared United States Customs at 8:05 pm on September 05, 2010. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

Sometimes..............stuff is just so dumb that you just gotta laugh!

For example, what if siome inspector notices this on the tracking information and starts asking the same questions? What then? "Hmmmmm, passed customs inspection but its being shipped from a California address to a California Address??? I'd better check this one out further."

It's probably due to a scanning or administrative error. The question now would be if when the package is received if there is evidence of the package being opened for inspection.

These things happen when traveling as well. A few years ago when my late night domestic flight arrived in Atlanta from Washington DC we were directed through passport control. The CBP officers doing pre-primary thought it was strange that nobody seemed to be carrying valid passports with them.
