did you ask what is the reason your item is detained?

they only said that its because the item is from india..
and according to the courier company they told me that its compulsory for all items from india to be detained

But the person who called to let me know my item has been detained was from the courier company..not the customs..
now the courier company is quoting a price to be sent to the customs via email? is this how normaly things are handled? I thought the customs usualy sends a letter? or i might be wrong.

the courier company is saying maybe rm 100 or could be slightly more...
