Yay, my order got in yesterday during the holiday and zipped right through customs. My 1st direct China order, I couldn't be happier
and it went to Chicago, so I should have my new PV and juice soon!
That is awesome to know because I am waiting, patiently, to get my order from David. It left China on Sunday and I hope it will zip thru customs as yours did.
Just out of curiosity, when did you place your order?
Please let us know when it makes it to your door.
Date Ordered: Thursday 14 May, 2009
but it didn't show up on EMS & 8 days later I emailed David about the order and one day later it showed up on EMS
I'm hoping to get it today or Wed. for sure

I placed my order last week Tuesday. It shipped on Thursday I believe. Arrived at customs in LA sometime this morning and left later in the day. This is also my first China order and I'm greatly relived to know it got though customs with no problem. I am expecting my package either tomorrow or the day after at latest. I will let you all know when I get it though.
Congrats Shimmy! It's such a great feeling to know that it made it and you don't have to worry about it anymore. Also to know you'll have your goods.
I've been on an order freinzy and have 4 orders out now. ...Fingers crossed.

My first order from China too.
I placed my order at Eastmall on the 19th and got my stuff today. From the tracking it does not even look like my stuff went through customs at all unless ISC is customs in which case it only spent a few hours there.
this is my EMS tracking info...

Shimmy...time to do a happy dance, huh?
I remember when my first order from David cleared customs... I felt like I had gotten away with something hahaha!
Take that you FDA people...snuck one right past your nose... uh... they don't like... uh... monitor this forum do they... I swear it wasn't me... it was my alternate personality... I like the FDA

That is what my last order from China said too. There was nothing about customs.

Good service.

I have an order sitting in customs for three days now. I'll post an update, when/if it arrives.
Three orders from China; two through New York customs and one through LA customs. All were through customs within 24 hours or less. Who knows if that will be the same 30-60 days from now.

I just received my order yesterday, great service. I see your in the Chicago area shimmy, thats funny cause when I went to pick up my package at the post office the clerk asked me what it was cause they had just handed out the same package from chia the day before to someone else might have been yourself in your in the northern burbs. I said it was a usb charger or something like that that was on sale lol. Anyhow that was my 1st order w/ this company and certainly won't be my last..Great job eastmall!!!
Where in Texas are you? Mine was dispatched the 22nd but since the tracking info is not updating I don't have a clue where it is.
I need to run some errands but don't want to miss the post person.

I'm still a newbie, but I've placed my second order from David. The first order was on 9 May, and arrived (Pacific NW) on 15 May, super fast! There was tracking info all the way.
My second order was on 23 May and was dispatched on 24 May. I realise there are tracking issues due to the move and a new shipper. No tracking info showed up until this morning (30 May) and the USPS tracking info says:
Class: Express Mail International®
Status: Foreign Acceptance
Your item was accepted on May 30, 2009 at 8:31 PM. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.
The EMS info says it was dispatched from the sorting center on 31 May.
What does this mean? It is now 5:45pm (30 May) my time. Is it in the US? At Customs? What does "Status: Foreign Acceptance" mean on the USPS site?
Thanks for any help! (Just worried about the whole Customs issue......)

Oh, forgot to add that the USPS site has had the same statement all day with no change. I know it says info is updated in the "evening" but I'm not sure what that means since the "8:31pm" was quoted in the a.m.
Sorry for stupid newbie questions.....

Happily, thanks for the info!
I was wondering why it's still in China (after a week) then remembered about the Chinese holiday. No need to worry about delays due to holidays---but will still be biting my nails worrying about US Customs. I just don't trust those guys.......
