It's correct: recently italan custom is controlling everithing thac comes from outside Europe and as usual things at the customs takes ages to be done!!
This is a very big waste of time: when you buy something you'd like to receive it asap and if it needs 1 or 2 monthes than people start complaining...
It's different if shipping is via UPS or FedEx: they have their own custom and are very fast!!! But they are more expensive than traditional shipment so if you buy cheap stuff it's not worth it to use them.
It's much safer to buy from European countries than because there is no custom control!
I usually find things in Germany or UK: germany for me it's cheaper, but I don't speack german so sometimes it's hard to comunicate or to know exactly what you're going to buy is exactly what you're looking for...
