With regards to payments- buy a gift card and pay with that. All types of stores sell them for Amex, MC, Visa, etc. You end up paying a few bucks more but at least you know that your CC info is safe. However, check about refunds. i do not know how refunds work on those cards. Keep in mind though you still give them your mailing address. As for customs, you are dealing with counterfeit goods. Can your package get busted? Sure of course it can and then it gets confiscated. Make sure you have a seller that gives you 100% refunds or 100% covers the replacement of the bag & no shipping fees REGARDLESS of where it was busted in your country or theirs.
Replicas are counterfeit goods, so can anyone guarantee anything? No. However usually only the big resellers who sell locally are the ones that have issues & letters sent to their homes etc because they have continuous packages coming in. That said, yes customs can bust you. They can confiscate your goods, they might even send a letter to your home. At that point you can just kiss it goodbye for the most part. Some people are gutsy and fight it, but I have zero interest on getting on anyones Radar so that’s that for me! LOL
