Fucking Customs

So, I ordered some really high powered lasers from China. They aren't supposed to be shipped into the US anymore, but a lot of places still send them out.
I ordered them to Canada, for a friend to re-route them for me. He got them, and sent them out last Tuesday. He only lives a 4 hour drive away from me, so I KNOW my laser is just sitting in customs, and not actually in transit (it would be here within a fucking day).
So, its been over a week since he has sent it...no lasers, no letter from customs. Is 8 or 9 days for my package to be sitting there normal? I'm pretty pissed, because they weren't cheap lasers either.
If they send me a letter saying they caught the lasers, is there any "return to sender" option?
He pulled the stickers off that indicate the power of the laser...I was really highly doubting that they would even bother to check the lasers, let alone put them on the fucking meter (like customs HAS a laser meter)...now I don't know what to think.
I fucking hate the government

Nothing that serious. The one I have now tingles the skin, but not too much. I got sick of green and bought purple.

Would you mind linking an example of the lasers you're talking about? I'd be interested in researching them.
And that's a horrible shipping time.

Ummm... Why do you think lasers can't be imported into the US?

All that link says is don't point them at airplanes.
Last I checked the only requirement for importing lasers is that they be certified to some minimum standard. e.g. they aren't leaking dangerous laser radiation, etc..
