Good morning ladies and gentleman.

Today i got my Intex Aqua Fish delivered via German Post to my work adress in BERLIN / GERMANY.

I had no problem with customs / VAT / CE etc. Just thrown in the postbox.

To all unlucky Germans, whose Intex was "eated" by the customs because of the missing CE mark - i can give my company adress in PM and be the middle man.

Another advice, which i got from my friends, which working in the logistics company (and dealing wit german customs a lot) was:

Don't tell in the customs office, that you want to use the Intex in the EU.
Just say, you purchased it as a present to your cousine in the non EU country (like Ukraine). Russia can be a problem because of the EU sanctions.

I also can give you an name and adress of a real person living in Ukraine (just to tell in the customs office, if they ask and want to prove that.)
Of course they don't send your phone to Ukraine, and will not force you to send it immediately :-), but they can say you need to pay 19% VAT and afterwards, when the device has (really) left EU, you can try to got your VAT back.

So if you need my help - just contact me.
