It does seem that this sort of stuff doesn't seem to happen to anyone else on the forum.

I get 80% of my parts shipped via a freight forwarder. The original seller in the USA has no idea where it is going to end up, they have nothing to do with tax or customs either, it couldn't be less of an issue for them.

You come off sounding very inexperienced when it comes to shipping.



I'm in CA so things may be a bit different. Back in my 5.0 Mustang days (very late 90s, early 2000s) a friend got busted for not having cats on his car. $2500 fine.
I absolutely wont trust a newbie on a site for an international shipment.

Good for you. You obviously still don't know what the **** you're doing when it comes to shipping.

You're young and think you know everything. Only half of that is true.

Take, for example, someone who has been a member for less than a year and whose posts are largely trolls.
THAT kind of n00b?

I have to agree with a previous poster who commented that your issues seem mostly self-induced.

Your anger cracks me up, def got the reaction I wanted.

regarding the exhaust shop, I did go it have it modified. Actually many members on here have gotten cats removed. But again, if you damage my vehicle twice, then attempt to steal my catalytic converters you think I won’t get pissed? There’s literally no other side to the story? “You pissed him off so he damaged your car” is that what you want to hear 😂

take it easy, Nigeria isn’t near the Caribbean’s. Scammer.
Oh by the way: Next time you're in the W211 forum, you can expect me to **** all over your thread.
I just love holier-than-though *****s.
Kisses!
