Canada/Rolex smuggling story - amusing
Funny tale - i doubt the watch depicted was the item in question... still interesting that they were still trying to hide it even when they got caught.

If he just used Fedex or UPS for the paperwork . . . .
Would have been maybe $ 250.00 . . . . instead of . . . HAGOne

"The watch was seized by border officials and later assessed at $81,510."
This is a joke! |

Worth selling vintage Rolex to CBSA
Quote:
Just sell the watch to CBSA for the price, they appraised. Or maybe, even half the appraisal. Thieves. |

I believe he is a seller on VRF. That name looks really familiar.

Just a lesson to us all
Always send back the box+papers by post and wear the watch on your wrist

Quite a shame to have your $81k Rolex confiscated. And to think, he was going to be the first man in Calgary with a Rainbow Daytona!
