What the heck is it? If I don't fill out what happens? Are they going got possibly charge me a customs fee and typically how much? Endclothing shoe price shipped was $285 total.

I know it's been brought up, but I don't really want to dig through 30-40 pages of stuff.
If you don't fill it out and return it FedEx will not be able to get the package released from customs that's the bottom line.  Fedex can not collect a customs fee they just deliver.  If there is a fee it MAY be sent to you at a later date  but that's not in stone some people have been charged others haven't.  Sent mine back to FedEx yesterday they did not ask for a customs fee and Ispoke to a Rep they said as far as they know it depends on how customs classifies your purchase if its for a business you COULD be taxed personal use depends on cost of the item.

the forms fedex sends also allows u to state wether its for an individual or business or whatever...im not 100% on the fee tho

could you tell FedEx to just return the item to sender? wonder if u could send em back and get a refund

but i think this is what fedex does regardless cuz my CT pair didnt come through them and no custom fees or nothin

Where was he located, if you don't mind me asking? Does customs really just randomly open these boxes?

I thought that just as long as the price was less than 250 USD, customs wouldn't mess with it. 

I'm worried if my pair is held in customs now.

If it was the guy from the "other site", then it is important to note that, apparently, he is located in Canada.
 
For you guys confused about the customs form, these are the only parts you have to fill out:

CBP 5106 Instructions

Please be sure to write in only dark ink. This is a form for Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and will not be valid if any scratch marks are made to correct something. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to give me a call on my direct line. I have also provided my fax number to return the form. I have indicated the boxes that will need to be completed on the attached form. Please complete the following boxes:

• Box 1 (mark "notification of Importer's number)
• 2b (social security #)
• 3 (your full name)
• 6 (mark "individual")
• 7-10 (your mailing address)
• 12-15 (your physical address)
• 18-21


then just fax it back to the fedex rep who called you or emailed you.

got my 3 pairs... 2 pairs i got on new years eve from crooked tongues but since i missed the delivery got it on wednesday... i ordered my pairs on release date and used sneaker saving shipping... and my 1 pair came today from snipes... i thought it was going to get canceled

...no need for pics... and forgot to add i didnt pay customs on any of my pairs
 
Kinda wishing I got an 11 instead of 11.5. Funny thing is my cool greys are an 11 but they're too tight, but these are slightly big. Oh well.

Yes, you can return to sender, but the customs fee's depends on the business you buy them from. If they don't classify them as gifts or declare the value over $200 or $250 you will have to pay Duty taxes from CBP.

shout out to all those who are taking the time to help other members out with their questions........its refreshing to see something besides bickering over fakes or how many pairs someone has.

Glad I didn't order overseas. My customs fee probably would have been more than that

Just picked up my CT order from usps.

2 pairs. Value 220 GBP. Customs Fee: $41.49 USD

Shipping box was beat to hell, opened and retaped by Customs.

Concord boxes NOT sliced open LOL. Good shape and shoes were flawless.

Any other questions lemme know...
 
If you think about it, customs fees isn't that bad...it sucks but:

1.) I didn't pax CA 9.75% tax
2.) I didn't pay Global EMS Express shipping
3.) Shoes were under US retail (at least Crooked Tongues anyway 110 GBP each)

All in all, it pretty much evens itself out. My customs fee for 2 pairs was $41.97
 
A LOT OF HOOPS TO JUMP THROUGH JUST FOR A PAIR OF SHOES.

I KNOW NOW NOT TO ORDER FROM OVERSEAS NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED AT FOR FUTURE RELEASES.
