Strange UK Customs Action.

In January, I requested OcCre for wooden gun carriages to replace the horrible metal ones supplied in 'The Dos Amigos' kit, to which they agreed to send. Having received nothing, I emailed them yesterday, I had a reply today saying the package, which had been posted, had been rejected by UK customs & returned. OcCre said if I paid post & any customs charge, they'd send by Fedex, no doubt 'rip-off' charges would be added if I went ahead. This is very strange behaviour from customs, as I've had parts sent previously.
My decision, obviously, is to make my own, considering there are only 12 carriages!
