My stuff goes through Chicago customs. Is anybody having trouble with their orders through that airport? Usually my orders go through in minutes. My last order was shipped back to China. Wayne from Heavens Gifts reshipped and it has been sitting there for over 24 hours. I wouldn't be complaining but like I said, it usually passes through in minutes.

It varies but mainly Chicago has held on to stuff longer than other places. Sometimes it flies right through too. It's a huge hub. I'd rather see stuff come through Dallas ;-)

Very large orders are definitely on the FDA's radar. They're getting cocky since getting the appeals court to stay Judge Leon's ruling, and with that stay stretching on, they are upping the ante in stopping obvious large shipments for USA distributors. My guess is the successful distributors are spreading out their purchase requisitions into smaller orders and among a spread of different suppliers. Also, ordering under different names and addresses helps.
