I don't know what customs in the US are like, but here you can only purchase an item up to £17 from abroad before they dump a butt-load of taxes on you and hold the item until you go and pay up the difference in person . . . I don't know if this is the same in the US, but if you brought an item over a set ammount then customs may have taken it simply because it was past a certain value. It's worth looking up on the US customs site to see what their various rules are. Sometimes it's easy to make simply mistakes and lose items, but if you know what you're buying (and allowed to buy) you shouldn't have any issue.
