I am so dead -_-
Dosnt matter aniket, you have to pay customs in even the smallest order.
I ordered this stuff mainly for the LiPos because they arent available in india.

how much time do you think it will take more? :( :(

And do you think DT700s are better than the Turnigy 2836 1100kv motors?

Rahul I don't think.. turnigy 1100 kv are better that dt700..
The dt750 are of similar thrust and can use with a 20a esc without any issue.. but the turnigy need at least a 30a one...
I have also ordered the turnigy 1100 kv one with 30a hk esc..

yea.. u have to pay customs.. but think of it this way.... the guy at customs sees some small boxes and is like "jaane de yaar"...
but when he sees a big box with lots of items, its his cue to cash in on it....

i am also facing same situation; mine also stuck in mumbai custom since 09.04.2013. It has to deliver in Hyderabad but it arrived in india through chennai then to mumbai custom. Why not Hyderabad directly?

Can anybody suggest any solution and how i can track in Mumbai custom.

Date   Zipcode   Location   Event   Weight   Additional
03.04.2013 16:05       Singapore S05    Arrival at international place of exchange       
03.04.2013 16:05       Singapore S05    Consolidated for export (Export)       
06.04.2013 07:42       Chennai (madars) Air    Arrival at international place of exchange       
06.04.2013 09:23       Chennai (madars) Air    Consolidated for local delivery       
09.04.2013 11:48       Mumbai Air    Into customs

status updated to :
22.04.2013 11:16       Mumbai Foreign Post Office    Customs clearance. Prohibited items       Retention 
22.04.2013 11:16       Mumbai Foreign Post Office    Released by customs       

Now what this mean they had retained the items (some/all) or they had released for postal delivery ??

Arun, you are lucky to pay no customs most of the times.

How much time did it take to clear? was it in kolkata's customs?

It took 13 days to clear almost...
And I always order as small boxes.. below 300 or 500 gms.. which will reduce the chance of customs hassles...
All the best

Last few packages were received without any issues  ;D.
The one which I'm expecting is stuck in Mumbai Customs from last 11 days.  :'(  :banghead:
Cost is less then $60. not sure what they are holding it for.  8-) ???
I'm still hoping that they will send this parcel soon.  ;)

Does anyone waited for so long ? is it normal ?   :help:

Finally reached home. (with Rs.708 custom charges). It turn out to be very big box this time which might have got into eyes of custom guys.
