Can anyone assist with Shipping swords Internationally

Hi gentlemen,

I would like to add that I have finally been contacted in regards to my sword. What I can understand (very poor English) is that the sword is being help by Peru customs and not being allowed out of the country due to it being an antique piece

Is this even possible? The seller has told me that they are trying to fix my problem with their customs and that I can get a refund if I want. I am very confused now. Has anyone ever experienced this problem in Peru or any other nation? Thanks.

Kind regards
Chris

There are some nations that prohibit the export of antiques native to the culture ..
