It looks like fans of EVE Online can't help but send the developers phallic items. In March of last year, a developer at CCP Games who goes by CCP Larrikin received a pretty big cardboard dong in the mail and it looks like mysterious dong senders are back for more.
Larrikin was recently sent an unmarked package in the mail that contained two bags of dong-shaped gummies, glitter, dong-shaped confetti and a coupon that read "Eat a bag of dicks." Unfortunately, Larrikin didn't get to discover the surprise bag of edible dongs the old fashioned way, customs had to open it for him.
Taking to Reddit, Larrikin detailed the situation of the spoiled surprised:
Here in Iceland, we pay tax on anything that gets imported. This includes anything you order from Amazon (or wherever). When it comes into the country, customs will check for an invoice and then you have to pay them to get your stuffs (or just ask them to throw it away).
If they can't find an invoice, you get a letter in the mail asking for one. There are some exceptions to needing an invoice (gifts for example) but you can only get away with that if its near your Birthday. You can authorize Customs to open up the package to find out what it is.
I recently received a package, and got one of these mails. I hadn't ordered anything so I asked Customs to open it. I got this email from them:
Hello, Your shipment has been opened and it did not contain an invoice. We need to have an invoice or some kind of receipt that confirms the value of the content to get the shipment cleared through customs. The shipment contains: Two Candy gummy bags in the shape of penises, glitter, penis shaped confetti and a coupon that says "Eat a bag of dicks". Please send us the invoice (link removed) here. Best regards, Tollmiðlun Póstsins
So, if you'd like to send something to CCP, please make sure to include the invoice and a description of the item.
Cheers,
CCP Larrikin
