From the seller:
“Please, ASAP customs needs your CIF/NIF/NIE”
I reply, after googling wtf CIF is, that as Canadian I don’t have or need a CIF - it’s for Spaniards and Spanish companies. I understand it to be a government issued ID, like maybe our SIN or your Social Security Number.
I told him I have a passport number, drivers license number, and Social insurance number, but I’m not about to provide him with them.
Anyone have any experience with this particular issue? Got a language barrier with the seller, but it seems to me he is equally as unclear what the shipping company and/or Spanish customs is asking me for. |

I think he may have accidentally sent you an email meant for someone else?
This is what the NIF is for:

Nope. Multiple fruitless back-and-forth with the seller. He is claiming incompetence by the Spanish service he is using (Zeleris). I’m telling him I don’t need that shit, and the shipping company ought to know that based on my country.
Wish me luck. |

So I guess customs just said OK and off it went. Weird.
In transit now. |

sgrubiosubasta On eBay. Looked to see if he was on the naughty list and found one mention where there was grief but he was the buyer. |

Arrived today. Between Spanish customs and DHL (what a shitty shipping company) it was a headache but everything ended up fine and all is well. |
