Hello!
I sent a parcel from Germany to Shanghai at the end of February.
I tracked it on China Post Tracking with the tracking number and it seems it has been stuck in Shanghai, not being able to be delivered at the address, since March 30th.

I suspect the problem is that the package contains 4 kitchen knives. I have read that that these are forbidden items. I did not know this when I sent the package.

I found someone that can help me send the package back. Is that possible? If it does not clear customs can it be sent back to Germany?
It has been a long time and I do not know if the package has been destroyed or not.
Is there a way to check for this ? Can I tell my friend to go to the Post Office and ask for the parcel and to send it back ??

Thanks so much for any advice!

Ra.
