DriveSavers Tries to Move into UK / European Market

[Jared]

Look out Europe! DriveSavers is trying to make a move in on your territory. They just opened a "drop-off location" in London (in addition to their 20 in the USA and Canada).

Perhaps their business here is starting to drop some with Google treating data recovery as a local service more and more.

At least you guys in Poland know you are safe. No hard drive will ever successfully make it in and out of your customs without some unreasonable demand for taxes and proof of a sale that never happened. :lol:

Same thing for Portugal. That's what Spildit says of the drives I shipped him. They were shipped early November and have been sitting in Customs since arrival.

@Larry tell @Spildit to tell customs to send it back (to the sender) to you
then ship it to another country of the EU
from there, (didn't checked it out, but I believe) it shouldn't be any customs problems

(@pclab M I right ?)

Unless it's not worth the trouble

@jol, I would have to pay the cost to return it, plus the shipping cost again ($70 CAD) to send it to someone else. I'd rather let Spildit figure it out (or pay whatever). Given that I also paid to ship another drive containing my results, and these same two drives currently being held ransom (which were mailed earlier without tracking/signature and were returned for non-delivery), I'm done with it. :evil:

Yeah, customs here are great!!!!!!!

The shipping form indicated two options for cases where the package was undeliverable: 1) dispose of it 2) return it at my expense. However, you might be right.

That would be weird. I don't think that's the case, but who knows. Weirder things have happened.

I just received the packing back from Canada Post today, saying it was unclaimed. Luckily, there was no charge that the delivery person could figure out. I'm not sure what to do with the test drive. Perhaps use the largest hammer I have to do some percussive maintenance on it. :evil:
