Far as I know UPS do a lot of pre- customs processing to make it as fast as possible, it was probably a fuckup/laziness on the french side. Like a Lemond Team Z bike I bought disappearing for a full 2 weeks that one time.
Anyway, best endorsement i can give is that when I buy special chemical products from Amsterdam I use UPS and they always arrive.
a) UPS are shit (especially via phone) and their online tracking isn't great - email them at custsvcgben@ups.com and help_uk@ups.com and kick up a fuss, if you haven't already.
b) That length of time held somewhere (anything over 24 hours) suggests an issue the sender should be resolving - UPS or 'customs' should have contacted them, so get them to chase it up.
