Now it has been 5 days and still the item is with the customs department.. I am getting worried...what should i do now? The seller has declared the actual value of the cellphone and not as a gift..so nothing illegal has been done on his part. Also the item is insured and paid by paypal..but what should i do now?? Is it normal for customs department to keep it for that long. If not whom should i contact?

Regards..

What was point in buying Nokia 5800XM from US. It has cost you approx Rs.17700/- and that too it has been unlocked and without any warranty.

The same in available on ebay.india, brand new box pack, no unlocking business and with full Nokia India warranty for Rs.16990. You can also get it on 6 EMI. No headache at all
