one of the sponsors is selling h22 s

 

anyone else what you guys think?

 

i have never heard of anyone having to provide the SSN in order to get something shipped ! it has no significants what so ever. I have shipped and had stuff shipped to me ( for big $$$ amounts ) and never needed SSN.

Ask him y he needs it, and if he insists then I have one u can use 855-4073-707

 

you ever seen punch drunk love?

you ask him why he needed it?
you dont need it for customs at all.

 

this is what he wrote me in an email

if needed. I'm sorry but us customs requires the Federal tax ID if
shipping to bus or SSN if it is a personal sale. I give this info to my US
customs broker. I am traveling to the US today and will try to call you on
Tuesday.

I think customs wants HIS SS#...not the person it's being shipped to.

 

i got my f20 from them and gave em a federal tax id cuase i was having it shipped to a buisness.... i never understood why he needed all that mess but i got my swap when it was posed to be here and they always answered my calls and emails. that and it is the cleanest jdm engine i have ever seen.. pulled the valve cover off and it looked new in there... jmi gets a from me

 

when i ordered my swap they also asked for my SS#, i didnt like it very much so i made one up.

great movie

 

typically they want the seller's Tax ID or SS as a tax reference. The only thing I could see is maybe Customs is keeping track of the sale for tax reference against the buyer since they can't really tax someone in canada selling it. It might be classed that way since it's a $$ car part... ?
